July 2026 roundup: Air Liquide launched a CO2-capture pilot at a Holcim cement plant; Repsol began large-scale production of 100% renewable fuels in Puertollano; Saint-Gobain finalized the sale of its textile and insulation business; and Nissan Chemical will build a new herbicide plant in India.

Which of these moves—cement CCUS, 100% renewable fuels, portfolio reshaping, or agchem capacity expansion—do you think will have the biggest near-term impact, and why?

Anyone know what gas pre-treatment Air Liquide is using on the Holcim pilot? In our amine units, dust plus SOx/NOx chew up solvent and the parasitic load is all about heat integration and reclaiming. For Repsol’s 100% renewables, what is the H2 source and the plan when UCO or tallow run short, because without low-CI hydrogen the lifecycle math gets ugly.

Curious which capture route Air Liquide is piloting at Holcim (amine, membranes, cryogenic), and whether they are tying into kiln waste heat to cut energy per ton CO2. On Repsol’s 100% renewable fuels, are they running neat HVO/SAF through existing terminals and seals, and how are they handling cold-flow specs for winter grades?
