University of Oklahoma Study Explores the Use of Carbon Dioxide to Make Acrylic Acid

Funded by the Department of Energy, a theoretical study led by Bin Wang, Ph.D., associate professor in the School of Chemical, Biological and Materials Engineering in the Gallogly College of Engineering at the University of Oklahoma, is modeling how carbon dioxide could be combined with ethylene, the most common industrial chemical, to make acrylic acid, a

Transition to climate neutrality needs accurate accounting for biogenic carbon

With the drastic reduction of CO2 emissions at its core, the European Union’s Green Deal sets ambitious goals for a climate-neutral economy by 2050. Assessing the environmental sustainability of products placed on the EU market, and in particular their contribution to the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, has gained traction. As the European

Givaudan and LanzaTech announce their collaboration on developing sustainable fragrance ingredients from renewable carbon

Renewable carbon is carbon that avoids or substitutes the use of additional fossil carbon. Examples include carbon from CO2 and carbon recycling. Multiple commercial facilities are already licensing LanzaTech’s technology, converting various waste carbon sources to ethanol, including the conversion of industrial emissions in China, thanks to the power of industrial biology and a proprietary biocatalyst.

On presents the first ever shoe made from carbon emissions in partnership with LanzaTech, Borealis and Technip Energies

Swiss sports brand On presents the first shoe made from carbon emissions, called Cloudprime. This is a significant moment in On’s journey to move away from petroleum-based resources by creating a new foam material called CleanCloud™, made using carbon emissions as a raw material. On is the first company in the footwear industry to explore

On präsentiert ersten Schuh, der mit CO-Emissionen hergestellt wurde

Die Schweizer Sportmarke On präsentiert den neuen Cloudprime, den ersten Schuh, der mit Kohlenstoff-Emissionen hergestellt wurde. Dies ist ein Meilenstein in den Bestrebungen, Alternativen zu erdölbasierten Ressourcen zu finden. Der Cloudprime besteht aus CleanCloud™ EVA-Schaum und wird aus Kohlenstoffemissionen als Rohstoff hergestellt. On ist das erste Unternehmen in der Schuhindustrie, das CO-Emissionen als primären Rohstoff

Find the Global Acrylic Acid Derivatives Market Growth with the Latest Research Report

Acrylic acid derivatives are important raw materials for the manufacture of a wide variety of industrial and consumer products. In the theme of sustainability, more economical methods that utilize cheaper and less toxic feedstock are urgently needed. Clean pathways can be realized through the direct functionalization of CO2, which plays a dual role of reducing

We need massive amounts of carbon capture from air to decarbonize aviation, and policymakers must act now

At least 1.83 million tons per year (Mt/yr) of e-kerosene will be produced in Europe by 2030. The European Parliament’s draft of the main regulation supporting e-kerosene production and use in the European Union – the ReFuelEU Aviation – provides that 50% of all aviation fuel consumed in the EU needs to be synthetic by 2050. This

Report lays out future scenarios for global chemical industry

A new report sends a dire warning to the chemical industry, which it says is on track for a future global warming scenario with catastrophic consequences, and sets out tangible, credible pathways for the sector to become an enabler of a sustainable global economy by 2050, while overseeing dramatic growth. The report, Planet Positive Chemicals, put

Zukunftsszenarien für die globale Chemieindustrie

Ein neuer Bericht richtet eine düstere Warnung an die chemische Industrie, die dem Bericht zufolge auf dem Weg in ein zukünftiges Szenario der globalen Erwärmung mit katastrophalen Folgen ist, und zeigt konkrete, glaubwürdige Wege auf, wie der Sektor bis 2050 zu einem Wegbereiter einer nachhaltigen Weltwirtschaft werden kann, während er gleichzeitig ein dramatisches Wachstum bewältigt.

Bahnbrechende Entdeckung bei der Umwandlung von Kohlenstoff für die Ethylenproduktion

Ein Forscherteam unter der Leitung von Meenesh Singh von der University of Illinois Chicago hat einen Weg gefunden, um 100% des aus Industrieabgasen abgeschiedenen Kohlendioxids in Ethylen umzuwandeln, einen wichtigen Baustein für Kunststoffprodukte. Ihre Ergebnisse sind in Cell Reports Physical Scienceveröffentlicht. Während Forscher seit mehr als einem Jahrzehnt die Möglichkeit erforschen, Kohlendioxid in Ethylen umzuwandeln, ist
