Sulzer und Blue Planet geben Partnerschaft zur Reduzierung von CO2-Emissionen bekannt, um den Wandel zu einer nachhaltigen Zementindustrie zu beschleunigen

Sulzer ermöglicht die Weiterentwicklung und Optimierung des innovativen Kohlenstoffmineralisierungsprozesses von Blue Planet zur Abscheidung, Nutzung und Speicherung von Kohlenstoff (sog. CCUS-System). Das bahnbrechende Verfahren nutzt Sulzer-Technologie zur Kohlenstoffreduzierung, um die Treibhausgasemissionen aus dem industriellen Betrieb zu senken. Der Prozess wird unter anderem die Zementindustrie bei der Herstellung von kohlenstoffneutralem oder kohlenstoffnegativem Beton unterstützen. Das US-amerikanische

Conoship responds to World Bank’s stance on LNG

Taking issue with the findings of a report published by the World Bank in April, ship design and engineering company Conoship says there is a ‘bright future for LNG in the decarbonisation of the shipping industry’. Netherlands-based Conoship argued that in in relation to marine carbon capture systems, the World Bank report ‘seemed to have

Introducing HY-CAT, a project devoted to finding better catalysts to spur a CO2 circular economy

However, as CO2 is a very stable molecule, efficient catalysts to break its bonds are needed. The ERC-supported HY-CAT project aims to identify and develop better catalytic systems to convert CO2 into value-added chemicals whilst storing renewable energies. The world’s current dependence on fossil fuels requires us to capture and store the CO2 human civilisation

Das Projekt HY-CAT widmet sich der Suche nach besseren Katalysatoren, um eine CO2-Kreislaufwirtschaft voranzutreiben

Da CO2 jedoch ein sehr stabiles Molekül ist, sind effiziente Katalysatoren zum Aufbrechen seiner Bindungen erforderlich. Das vom Europäischen Forschungsrat geförderte Projekt HY-CAT hat die Identifizierung und Entwicklung besserer Katalysatorsysteme zur Umwandlung von CO2 in wertschöpfende Chemikalien bei gleichzeitiger Speicherung erneuerbarer Energien zum Ziel. Die derzeitige Abhängigkeit der Welt von fossilen Brennstoffen macht es erforderlich,

Japan to expand cross-sector use of synthetic methane

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 rev...

Saving the climate with solar fuel

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 synthet...

Mit Solar-Treibstoff zum Klimaziel

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...

Saving the climate with solar fuel

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

A tax on fossil carbon is more effective for a carbon border adjustment mechanism than a tax on CO2 emissions

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 to expand cross-sector use of synthetic methane

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
