Samsung E&A has held a groundbreaking ceremony for its Wabash Low-Carbon Ammonia Project recently.
This project, to be built in Terre Haute, Indiana, will be an eco-friendly ammonia facility capable of producing 500,000 tons of ammonia and capturing 1.67 million tons of carbon dioxide annually. This national project is funded by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), the Korean Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, and the Ministry of Climate, Energy, and Environment. SAMSUNG E&A signed an EPF (Engineering, Procurement, and Fabrication) worth approximately KRW 680bn (approximately USD 475M) with Wabash Valley Resources of the United States in October of last year, and is currently carrying out the project with the goal of completion in 2029.
SAMSUNG E&A plans to leverage its extensive ammonia plant experience and differentiated technologies, including DT, AI, automation, and modules, for this project, and actively cooperate with the client and technology partner Honeywell UOP to complete the project successfully.
