Decarbonisation tech instantly converts CO2 to solid carbon

The carbon dioxide utilisation technology from RMIT researchers is designed to be smoothly integrated into existing industrial processes. Decarbonisation is an immense technical challenge for heavy industries like cement and steel, which are not only energy-intensive but also directly emit CO2 as part of the production process. The new technology offers a pathway for instantly

Haldor Topsoe to support Indaba Renewable Fuels’ production of sustainable aviation fuel

Indaba Renewable Fuels (Indaba) will build two greenfield refineries in California and Missouri to produce Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) utilizing Topsoe’sHydroFlex™ technology. The facilities are expected to begin production of SAF in 2024 totaling. The capacity of the plants is 6500 barrels per day at each location. Topsoe will also provide its H2bridge™ hydrogen technology

CropEnergies AG unveils plans to produce renewable ethyl acetate using Johnson Matthey technology

CropEnergies AG, Mannheim, and Johnson Matthey, London, a leader in sustainable technologies, have entered into an engineering, license and technical services agreement for a plant to allow CropEnergies AG to produce renewable ethyl acetate from sustainable ethanol near its production site in Zeitz, Germany. Using Johnson Matthey technology, the renewable ethyl acetate produced by CropEnergies

CropEnergies AG präsentiert Pläne zur Herstellung von erneuerbarem Ethylacetat mit Johnson Matthey-Technologie

Die CropEnergies AG, Mannheim, und Johnson Matthey, London, ein führendes Unternehmen für nachhaltige Technologien, haben einen Planungs-, Lizenz- und technischen Dienstleistungsvertrag für eine Anlage abgeschlossen, mit der die CropEnergies AG in der Nähe ihres Produktionsstandorts in Zeitz aus nachhaltigem Ethanol erneuerbares Ethylacetat herstellen kann. Das mit der Johnson Matthey-Technologie von CropEnergies produzierte erneuerbare Ethylacetat verringert

What if all our buildings were sucking carbon from the air?

The first commercial carbon removal plant, where CO2 is sucked out of the air and stored underground, is in a remote part of Iceland, nowhere near a city. It’s a massive industrial operation. But the carbon-capturing technology doesn’t need to be sequestered to the middle of nowhere: It could also be incorporated into neighborhoods—something that

Overcoming a bottleneck in carbon dioxide conversion

If researchers could find a way to chemically convert carbon dioxide into fuels or other products, they might make a major dent in greenhouse gas emissions. But many such processes that have seemed promising in the lab haven’t performed as expected in scaled-up formats that would be suitable for use with a power plant or

Turning harmful CO2 into useful chemicals

Making important raw materials for fine chemicals out of carbon dioxide really works. As part of the Max Planck collaborative project eBioCO2n, a team of researchers from Fraunhofer IGB have successfully performed a first ever fixation of CO2 via a multi-enzyme enzyme reaction driven by electricity yielding a prospective intermediate for the chemical industry. The

Aus klimaschädlichem CO2 werden nützliche Chemikalien

Aus Kohlenstoffdioxid wichtige Ausgangsmaterialien für Feinchemikalien machen – das funktioniert tatsächlich: Einem Forscherteam des Fraunhofer IGB ist es im Max-Planck-Kooperationsprojekt eBioCO2n erstmals gelungen, CO2 in einer auf dem Transfer von Elektronen basierenden Enzymkaskade zu fixieren und in einen festen Ausgangsstoff für die chemische Industrie umzuwandeln. Das Verfahren zur elektrobiokatalytischen CO2-Fixierung wurde bereits publiziert und gilt

Vertimass and European Energy Sign Letter of Intent

Vertimass and European Energy announced today that the companies have completed a Letter of Intent (LOI) to integrate technologies for capturing carbon dioxide and converting it into hydrocarbon products around the world, a result that would reduce emissions of carbon dioxide that contribute to climate change. This unique combination takes advantage of European Energy’s expertise

Unique equipment for biotechnological capture and conversion of CO2 into chemical building blocks developed in the BioRECO2VER project

CO2 as renewable carbon source Carbon is the main element in numerous materials used in industrial processes and in our daily lives. It is currently mostly provided from fossil sources. But what if carbon could be used directly from CO2 emissions? Biotechnology shows particularly great potential for the eco-effective conversion of climate-damaging CO2 emissions into
