Yara Inaugurates Europe's Largest Carbon Capture Plant in Sluiskil

Sluiskil – September 09, 2026 -- Europe's largest industrial carbon capture facility was officially inaugurated today at Yara International's ammonia and fertilizer plant in Sluiskil, the Netherlands, establishing the continent's first complete cross-border value chain for capturing, transporting and permanently storing CO2.

Facility captures up to 800,000 tons of CO2 annually from ammonia production

The plant, part of Europe's largest ammonia and fertilizer complex, will capture and liquefy up to 800,000 tons of CO2 per year, avoiding carbon taxation on those volumes. Over the next 15 years, the project is expected to capture and store approximately 12 million tons of CO2, contingent on supportive regulatory conditions.
