Neutralizing CO2 at a Grand Scale

Alkaline industrial wastewaters from steel or cement production are ideally suited to bind and sequester carbon dioxide (CO2) chemically, safely, and for the long term. This is the result of a study conducted by the Helmholtz-Zentrum Hereon. Until now, this wastewater has been disposed off into rivers without using its CO2-sequestration capacity. In the future,

CO2 im großen Stil neutralisieren

Industrieabwässer aus der Stahl- oder Zementproduktion sind bestens geeignet, um Kohlendioxid langfristig und sicher chemisch zu binden. Das ist das Ergebnis einer Studie, die das Helmholtz-Zentrum Hereon durchgeführt hat. Bislang werden die Abwässer ungenutzt in Flüsse eingeleitet. Künftig könnten sie Millionen Tonnen von CO2 neutralisieren – eine interessante und anwendbare Option zur Minderung des Klimawandels. Die

Titan Clean Fuels and TURN2X agree e-Methane supply deal

Titan Clean Fuels has signed an off-take agreement with green energy supplier TURN2X to deliver e-Methane to the maritime industry from 2028 onwards. Titan operates seven bunker vessels and is able to deliver in around 52 ports today, so the new e-Methane agreement can help to significantly scale up green fuel supply. TURN2X’s modular and

ClimeFi structures the first publicly announced transaction for CRCF carbon removal units

ClimeFi, the leading portfolio manager for durable carbon removals, today shared that it has structured the first publicly announced transaction for carbon removal units aligned with the EU CRCF framework. This marks a significant milestone in operationalising the EU’s carbon removal certification framework and establishing commercial infrastructure for durable carbon removals in Europe. It builds

Stockholm Exergi baut eine der weltgrößten Anlagen zur Entfernung von Kohlendioxid aus der Atmosphäre

Stockholm Exergi gibt heute seine Entscheidung zum Bau einer der weltweit größten Anlagen zur Abscheidung und dauerhaften Speicherung von biogenem Kohlendioxid bekannt. Die Investitionsentscheidung ist ein wichtiger Meilenstein bei der Ermöglichung einer dauerhaften Entfernung und soll Schweden und der EU helfen, ihre langfristigen Klimaziele zu erreichen. Die Investition beläuft sich auf 13 Milliarden SEK. Mit dem

Solar energy could be key to making sustainable aviation fuel

A new way of making sustainable aviation fuel that could cut the reliance on used cooking oil as a feedstock, has been developed by a team of engineers led by the University of Sheffield. The new technique captures CO2 from the air, combines it with hydrogen and then heats it using concentrated solar energy to produce

Electrochemistry Turning CO₂ into Valuable Products

Electrochemical CO₂ conversion is moving from scientific promise to industrial relevance. By combining effective CO2 capture and conversion with renewable electricity, smart technologies can generate platform molecules such as syngas, formic acid, ethylene and other C1–C2 chemicals that fit into already established value chains or offer new platforms for various industries. Why scale-up matters The key

Aircapture and Almanac Beer Co. Launch World’s First Commercial Beer Carbonated with CO₂ Captured from the Atmosphere with Direct Air Capture

Aircapture, a pioneer in Direct Air Capture (DAC) technology, and California craft beer brewery Almanac Beer Co. announced the launch of Flow – Clean Air Edition (Flow – CAE), the world’s first beer carbonated using CO₂ captured from the atmosphere through onsite DAC. Installed at Almanac’s brewery in Alameda, California, Aircapture’s modular DAC unit pulls

AGR Biogás and TURN2X to recycle biogenic CO₂ as e-methane

A Spanish biomethane company is partnering with an e-methane producer to capture and reuse biogenic CO₂ that would otherwise be released during biogas upgrading. AGR Biogás announced it will supply carbon dioxide from its biomethane plants to TURN2X, which will convert it into e-methane using green hydrogen. The collaboration turns a production byproduct into feedstock for renewable fuel.

The bright future of CCU: CO₂-based Fuels and Chemicals Conference 2026, 28-29 April 2026, Maternushaus, Cologne (Germany)

Interest in CCU/PtX technologies, which use CO₂ as a feedstock for fuels, chemicals, and plastics, is growing rapidly. Many of these technologies are now mature enough to justify investment. What is driving this interest? Technological advances, affordable renewable energy, crises in the supply of fossil fuels, the desire for resilience and strategic autonomy, stronger political
