創新碳捕獲技術引領變革 Leilac 助力水泥與石灰產業邁向淨零排放

Leilac 推動水泥與石灰產業低碳轉型 加速全球產業可持續發展

隨著全球氣候變遷議題日益嚴峻，各國紛紛承諾實現 2050 年「淨零排放」 目標。作為全球最具挑戰性的高碳排放產業之一，水泥與石灰產業 目前約佔全球 9% 的二氧化碳排放，面臨著降低排放與保持產業競爭力的雙重挑戰。在這一背景下，Leilac（Low Emissions Intensity Lime and Cement）致力於開發低成本、高效能的碳捕獲技術，以靈活、經濟可行的解決方案，幫助水泥與石灰產業減少碳排放、捕獲不可避免的碳排放，並清除歷史排放，推動產業向可持續發展轉型。

Leilac Drives Low-Carbon Transition in the Cement and Lime Industry, Accelerating Global Sustainable Development

As global climate change concerns intensify, countries worldwide are committing to the 2050 "Net Zero Emissions" goal. As one of the most challenging high-emission industries, the cement and lime industry currently accounts for approximately 9% of global CO₂ emissions, facing the dual challenge of reducing emissions while maintaining industrial competitiveness. Against this backdrop, Leilac (Low Emissions Intensity Lime and Cement) is dedicated to developing low-cost, high-efficiency carbon capture technology, offering flexible and economically viable solutions to help the cement and lime industry reduce emissions, capture unavoidable CO₂ emissions, and remove historical emissions, driving the industry toward sustainable development.

水泥與石灰是現代社會不可或缺的基礎材料。水泥是混凝土的主要成分，而混凝土是僅次於水的全球第二大消耗物質。石灰則廣泛應用於鋼鐵製造、水處理、農業等重要領域。然而，這兩種材料的生產過程高度依賴高溫煅燒石灰石，這一過程會釋放大量二氧化碳。因此，如何在確保產業供應穩定的同時，減少碳排放並維持經濟增長，成為全球關注的焦點。

Cement and lime are essential materials in modern society. Cement is a key ingredient in concrete, which is the second most consumed substance globally after water. Lime is widely used in steel production, water treatment, agriculture, and other critical sectors. However, the production of these materials relies heavily on high-temperature calcination of limestone, a process that releases significant amounts of CO₂. As a result, finding a way to reduce emissions while ensuring a stable supply of these materials and maintaining economic growth has become a global priority.

為此，Leilac 提出 「避免（Avoid）、捕獲（Capture）、清除（Remove）、平衡（Justly）」 四大核心原則，以技術創新推動水泥與石灰產業的低碳轉型。

技術創新驅動低碳轉型

Leilac 研發的創新技術可在不改變傳統工藝的前提下，直接捕獲水泥與石灰生產過程中的二氧化碳，無需額外的化學處理或能源消耗，確保碳排放能夠高效、安全地進行封存或再利用。這項技術不僅降低了碳捕獲的成本，還提高了碳管理的可行性，為水泥與石灰產業的去碳化提供了一條經濟可行的途徑。

To address this challenge, Leilac has established the "Avoid, Capture, Remove, Justly" principles, using technological innovation to drive the low-carbon transition of the cement and lime industry.

Technological Innovation Driving Low-Carbon Transformation

Leilac has developed innovative technology that directly captures CO₂ emissions from cement and lime production without requiring additional chemical treatments or energy consumption. This ensures that emissions can be efficiently and safely stored or utilized. The technology not only reduces the cost of carbon capture but also enhances the feasibility of carbon management, providing an economically viable pathway for the industry's decarbonization.

此外，Leilac 的技術還支援混合能源系統，允許工業設施靈活切換低碳電力與燃料，根據能源市場波動選擇最具成本效益的能源來源。這不僅能降低生產成本，還能增強電網穩定性，促進能源產業與工業部門的協同發展，打造更穩定、更具彈性的能源系統。

產業減碳刻不容緩 碳捕獲技術勢在必行

即使透過能源轉型和材料替代等方式減排，水泥與石灰產業仍有大量「無法避免的排放」。根據全球水泥與混凝土協會（GCCA） 的研究，即便實施所有其他減碳措施，全球水泥產業每年仍需捕獲並封存約 14 億噸二氧化碳，才能達成碳中和目標。

Leilac 的解決方案可有效降低碳捕獲的成本，並與全球夥伴攜手推動碳管理基礎設施建設，確保產業能夠在合理的經濟條件下快速實施碳捕獲技術。

加速碳清除技術 實現真正的「淨零」

為應對歷史碳排放，Leilac 也積極探索直接空氣捕獲（Direct Air Capture, DAC） 和 生物能源碳捕獲與封存（Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage, BECCS） 等碳清除技術。根據聯合國政府間氣候變遷專門委員會（IPCC）報告，未來數十年內，全球需清除數百億噸二氧化碳，以實現氣候穩定。Leilac 的技術將成為這一關鍵領域的重要推動力。

Additionally, Leilac's technology supports hybrid energy systems, enabling industrial facilities to flexibly switch between low-carbon electricity and fuels. This allows businesses to choose the most cost-effective energy source based on market fluctuations, reducing production costs, improving grid stability, and fostering collaboration between the energy and industrial sectors to create a more resilient and stable energy system.

Urgency of Industry Decarbonization: Carbon Capture as an Inevitable Solution

Even with energy transitions and material substitutions, the cement and lime industry still faces substantial "unavoidable emissions." According to the Global Cement and Concrete Association (GCCA), even after implementing all other carbon reduction measures, the cement industry will still need to capture and store approximately 1.4 billion tons of CO₂ annually to achieve carbon neutrality.

Leilac’s solution effectively lowers the cost of carbon capture and collaborates with global partners to advance carbon management infrastructure, ensuring that industries can rapidly implement carbon capture technology under economically feasible conditions.

產業轉型不僅關乎環保 也關乎經濟與社會公平

可持續發展不僅關乎環保，更與經濟增長和社會福祉息息相關。Leilac 強調，水泥與石灰產業的低碳轉型不應以犧牲就業和經濟發展為代價，而應透過靈活的解決方案，幫助企業在實現減排的同時，保障就業、強化供應鏈韌性，並推動當地經濟成長。

Leilac 透過技術創新和產業合作，積極推動符合公平轉型（Just Transition） 原則的減碳計畫，確保碳中和進程不會對低收入群體和發展中國家的經濟發展產生負面影響。

目前，Leilac 已在歐洲成功運行大型試點計畫，並與全球產業夥伴合作推動全產業鏈減碳方案。透過技術創新和跨產業合作，Leilac 正在助力全球水泥與石灰產業實現綠色轉型，邁向真正可持續的未來。

Accelerating Carbon Removal Technologies to Achieve True "Net Zero"

To address historical CO₂ emissions, Leilac is actively exploring Direct Air Capture (DAC) and Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS) technologies. According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), billions of tons of CO₂ must be removed from the atmosphere in the coming decades to stabilize the climate. Leilac’s technology will play a crucial role in advancing these essential solutions.

Industry Transition: An Environmental, Economic, and Social Imperative

Sustainable development is not just about environmental protection; it is also closely tied to economic growth and social well-being. Leilac emphasizes that the low-carbon transition of the cement and lime industry should not come at the expense of jobs and economic development. Instead, it should focus on flexible solutions that enable businesses to reduce emissions while preserving employment, strengthening supply chain resilience, and fostering local economic growth.

About Leilac

思享永續顧問服務公司的賴昱瑋會計師認為，在台灣，低碳轉型不僅是技術問題，更涉及產業競爭力、政策支持與社會適應能力。台灣水泥產業面臨歐盟碳邊境調整機制（CBAM）壓力，若無法加速導入減碳技術，未來出口成本將上升，影響國際競爭力。然而，這類技術導入門檻高，缺乏財務支持的中小企業恐難以負擔，產業內部可能出現競爭不均的情況。 台灣水泥與石灰產業仍以傳統製造為主，若技術自動化加速，基層勞工可能面臨被取代的風險，產業結構性失業問題將浮現。政府雖強調淨零目標，但目前對於勞動轉型與企業適應的配套措施仍顯不足。台灣應在政策、產業與社會層面同步推動，確保經濟發展與環境永續並行，真正落實綠色轉型，而非僅為應對國際減碳壓力的被動調整。
