Aisan adopts Celanese POM ECO-C for fuel pump modules supplied to a North American automaker

Celanese Corporation (NYSE: CE), a global specialty materials and chemical company, today announced that Aisan Industry Kentucky, LLC., the consolidated subsidiary of Japan-based Aisan Industry Co., Ltd., has adopted a Celanese polyacetal resin (POM) made from captured CO₂ for fuel pump modules produced for a North American automaker. This milestone reflects continued momentum for Celanese

Ohmium and RenewCO2 Collaborate to Advance CO2-to-Chemicals Technology

Ohmium International Inc., a leading manufacturer of high-efficiency, modular Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) electrolyzers, today announced its collaboration with RenewCO₂ to bring electrochemical CO₂ conversion technology to commercial scale. This joint development pairing RenewCO₂’s patented eCUT-FA™ catalyst technology with the Ohmium Lotus PEM electrolyzer platform and manufacturing capabilities has the potential to accelerate CO₂-to-chemicals commercialization.

Valmet and Linde collaborate to advance electrically driven CO₂ capture solutions for pulp and paper industry

Valmet and Linde, a leading global industrial gases and engineering company, have announced a collaboration to integrate, optimize and offer electrically driven carbon capture solutions for the pulp and paper industry. The collaboration combines Linde’s HISORP® CC CO₂ capture technology with Valmet’s strong integration capabilities and deep process expertise in pulp and paper production. The

Chinese scientists turn CO2 into aviation kerosene

Researchers at the Shanghai Advanced Institute (SARI) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) have developed a new process that converts carbon dioxide into energy-dense liquid fuels. The approach is based on a “reverse combustion” reaction, where CO₂ combined with water is transformed into long-chain hydrocarbons that can serve as a basis for aviation kerosene.

EU rules could make fossil-free aviation fuels unnecessarily expensive and energy-intensive

The effects of the Iran war on the oil market have brought renewed attention to the EU’s plans for domestic production of fossil-free aviation fuels. But EU rules for synthetic aviation fuels risk steering development towards production pathways that are both more expensive and more energy-intensive than necessary – making it harder to meet climate

EU-Vorschriften könnten fossilfreie Flugtreibstoffe unnötig teuer und energieintensiv machen

Die Auswirkungen des Iran-Krieges auf den Ölmarkt haben den Plänen der EU für eine heimische Produktion von fossilfreien Flugkraftstoffen neue Aufmerksamkeit verschafft. Die EU-Vorschriften für synthetische Flugkraftstoffe bergen jedoch die Gefahr, dass die Entwicklung in Richtung von Produktionswegen gelenkt wird, die sowohl teurer als auch energieintensiver als nötig sind – was die Einhaltung der Klimaziele erschwert. Dies

Renewable Materials Conference announces Six Nominees for the Innovation Award, Final Programme and High-Level Expert Panel

The Renewable Materials Conference (RMC) will once again be the outstanding international meeting place for innovators, companies and brands, investors and policymakers to come together to develop and shape the future renewable carbon economy. As in previous years, the conference organiser nova-Institute expects 400-500 participants from around the world. This year’s focus topic is “Defossilisation through

Die Renewable Materials Conference stellt sechs Nominierte für den Innovation Award, das finale Programm und ein hochrangiges Panel vor

Die Renewable Materials Conference (RMC) wird erneut der herausragende internationale Treffpunkt für Innovatoren, Unternehmen und Marken, Investoren sowie politische Entscheidungsträger sein, um gemeinsam die Zukunft der erneuerbaren Kohlenstoffwirtschaft zu entwickeln und zu gestalten. Wie in den Vorjahren erwartet der Veranstalter nova-Institut 400 bis 500 Teilnehmende aus aller Welt. Der diesjährige Themenschwerpunkt lautet „Defossilisation through innovation“

Innovation paves way to make ‘clean’ chemicals, plastics and food using solar energy

A new study led by Dr Lin Su of Queen Mary University of London, published today in the Journal of the American Chemical Society, describes a new integrated solar reactor in which engineered Escherichia coli (E. coli) are grown directly inside the same liquid that converts CO₂ into a usable energy source using sunlight. In future, this technology

SZTE Researchers Take Major Step Toward Industrial CO2 Utilization

A newly launched HU-RIZONT-supported research project at the University of Szeged could open up new possibilities for transforming industrial carbon dioxide emissions into valuable raw materials. At the heart of the initiative is the development of gas diffusion electrodes for CO₂ electrolysis that can operate reliably and maintain long-term stability. Globally, the electrochemical conversion of
