The Singapore Government is following up on the findings from two feasibility studies on low-carbon hydrogen and on carbon capture, utilisation, and storage (CCUS) technologies respectively. As an alternative energy disadvantaged country, we expect these technologies to play important roles in our transition to a low-carbon future. They will help us in our effort to
In Washington, D.C., the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management a...
Storegga, a UK company pioneering carbon reduction and removal projects, and Carbon Engineering (CE), a leading Direct Air Capture (DAC) provider, today announced they have begun engineering and design of a DAC facility that will permanently remove between 500,000 and one million tonnes of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere annually. Targeted for North-East Scotland, the
German company Made of Air won the crowd vote last week at GreenBiz Group’s Circularity 21 pitch competition. The company, which competed with four other circular economy startups, received praise from investment professionals Ellen Martin, chief impact officer of Circulate Capital, and Jessica Long, managing director and chief strategy officer of Closed Loop Partners. Made of Air is
Im Juni 2021 startet das EU Horizon 2020 Projekt “VIVALDI – innoVative bio-based chains for CO2 VALorisation as aDded-value organIc acids”. „VIVALDI entwickelt Biotechnologien, um industrielle CO2-Emissionen in hochwertige Chemikalien umzuwandeln, und so unsere Abhängigkeit von fossilen Rohstoffen zu durchbrechen. Unsere BOKU-Expertise mit industriellen Hefestämmen ist ein zentrales Element dieses Upcyclings. Wir freuen uns auf die Zusammenarbeit
To reach climate targets, industries need to accelerate the transition towards a low-carbon, resource efficient and circular economy. The chemical sector is one of the most challenging, but also a very promising one, in that context. At the forefront of waste reutilization, bio-based industries (BIs) have the potential to lead the way and create a
Carbon dioxide emissions, climate change, and fossil fuels – three well-known issues causing catastrophic environmental damage. In the past, fossil fuels were heavily relied upon, but supplies are diminishing rapidly. While new sources have replaced them, the damage caused by releasing huge amounts of harmful carbon dioxide over the last century has resulted in a
A carbon tax on the fuel used to heat Europe's buildings is the most effective price signal to decar...
The warming effect from contrails represents the largest contributor to the climate impact of air transport, having an even greater effect than carbon dioxide. Now, researchers at the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR), working together with the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), have found that the climate impact
