Nachhaltig produziert, tragen synthetische Treibstoffe dazu bei, die Mobilität auf erneuerbare Energie umzustellen und die Klimaziele im Strassenverkehr zu erreichen. Empa-Forschende untersuchen im Mobilitätsdemonstrator «move» die Herstellung von synt...
Produced in a sustainable way, synthetic fuels contribute to switching mobility to renewable energy and to achieving the climate goals in road traffic. In Empa’s mobility demonstrator, move, researchers are investigating the production of synthetic methane from an energy, technical and economic perspective – a project with global potential. Mobility analyses show: Only a small
In light of increased efforts towards climate neutrality by 2050, the European Union (EU) is working on the implementation of a so-called carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM), which would put a carbon price on imports of certain goods from outside the EU. In our most recent publication, nova-Paper #15 „A Tax on Fossil Carbon is
Japan is working on technology innovation to produce methane, seeking to expand the use of synthetic methane as the primary feedstock for domestic piped gas supplies and as a marine fuel. Premier Yoshihide Suga’s government yesterday drafted a revised “green growth strategy” aimed at meeting the country’s target to decarbonise by 2050. The strategy was
High-value chemicals used in biofuels and pharmaceuticals can be made from bacteria by switching their chemistry to produce novel products. Researchers from the University of Warwick have found a way to drastically cut the cost of turning on these swit...
We should not be surprised when Covestro will be eventually a major recycler as well as a chemicals producer. Waste plastic, biomass and CO will become the new raw materials for the chemical industry. And “Dead Dog” CO2 will also be reanimated.A few ye...
High-value chemicals used in biofuels and pharmaceuticals can be made from bacteria by switching their chemistry to produce novel products. Researchers from the University of Warwick have found a way to drastically cut the cost of turning on these switches. Most high-value chemicals are currently produced using fossil fuels – industrial chemistry’s use of petroleum
The world’s biggest renewable-diesel producer is looking to convert everything from tree limbs to landfill garbage into fuel for motor vehicles and planes as demand surges for low-carbon fuel sources.In Canada’s Quebec province, Neste Oyj is part of a ...
To ensure future growth in renewable and circular solutions, Neste’s Innovation unit focuses on scalable and sustainable sources of renewable raw materials and their required technologies in the business platforms. The business platforms established in...
The world’s biggest renewable-diesel producer is looking to convert everything from tree limbs to landfill garbage into fuel for motor vehicles and planes as demand surges for low-carbon fuel sources. In Canada’s Quebec province, Neste Oyj is part of a consortium looking at the possibility of building a refinery that would use forestry waste such
