Carbonxt Group Expands Activated Carbon Pellet Supply Deal with Wisconsin Public Service for Mercury Emissions Control
kalkinemedia.comAustralian-listed Carbonxt Group has secured a larger contract with Wisconsin Public Service to supply activated carbon pellets. The expanded agreement supports mercury capture at coal-fired power plants, a key emissions control measure under U.S. environmental regulations. Activated carbon injection is a proven technology for reducing air toxics, though it does not address CO2 emissions directly. This deal signals steady demand for emissions abatement hardware in the power sector, especially for plants that remain online during the energy transition. For investors tracking climate-related industrial supply chains, the contract adds revenue visibility for Carbonxt, but its climate benefit is limited to mercury and other pollutant capture, not carbon reduction. The move underscores how compliance markets can drive adoption of environmental technologies even as broader decarbonization efforts accelerate.
