HOUSTON--Linde today announced it is doubling the capacity of its Freeport, Texas, carbon dioxide (CO₂) production facility by adding a second CO₂ liquefaction plant.
Starting up in 2027, the new plant will liquefy crude CO₂ captured from MEGlobal America Inc.’s Oyster Creek ethylene glycol facility, which Linde also supplies with oxygen from its Freeport air separation plant.
The increased capacity will help Linde meet growing industry demand for reliable CO₂ supply across diverse applications, including carbonating beverages, preserving food quality, manufacturing dry ice, producing low carbon fuels, and chemical synthesis processes. These applications demand a reliable supply of CO₂ that meets rigorous safety and quality standards.
