Adani Enterprises (AEL), the Adani Group’s flagship company, has signed a long-term partnership with France-based clean-technology firm Dioxycle to develop low-carbon chemical manufacturing in India. The effort begins with a pilot facility at an Adani Group site to produce formic acid. According to reports, the pilot uses captured carbon dioxide combined with renewable electricity, aiming to replace conventional fossil-based production methods. The companies say the pilot is intended to demonstrate the conversion of captured emissions into a useful industrial chemical using clean energy. After successful testing, they plan to scale up the technology for commercial production. The partnership also outlines the potential to expand beyond formic acid to other low-carbon chemicals for industries including energy, packaging, materials and manufacturing. Dioxycle’s electrically powered manufacturing approach and Adani’s renewable energy, infrastructure and project execution capabilities are described as key elements of the collaboration. The initiative is positioned as an entry into low-carbon chemicals for Adani and as a model that can be scaled for cleaner industrial output.
