Unveiling Carbon-Storing Harbour Infrastructure with Hakkers

We worked with Hakkers, a leading Dutch construction and engineering firm, to release this project at the Port of Rotterdam that significantly reduces the environmental impact of maritime anchoring in a world’s first. By substituting part of the traditional cement content in the anchoring mix with Paebbl’s product, we are setting a new standard for

Beckers entwickelt mit Anodyne CO₂-reduzierte Beschichtungslösung

HHPA ist ein wesentlicher Bestandteil von Hochleistungsbeschichtungsformulierungen. Seine Kohlenstoffintensität trägt jedoch erheblich zum CO₂-Fußabdruck der Hochleistungsbeschichtungen von Beckers bei, und es wird vollständig aus petrochemischen Rohstoffen gewonnen. Derzeit gibt es keine nachhaltigen HHPA-Alternativen auf dem Markt. Anodyne leistet Pionierarbeit bei der nachhaltigen Herstellung von HHPA unter Verwendung von CO₂ durch die Entwicklung völlig neuer Enzyme.

Monroe Sequestration Partners (MSP) Signs Agreement with Southern Energy to create path for Permanent CO₂ Sequestration

Monroe Sequestration Partners (MSP), a premier carbon storage development company with deep expertise in industrial decarbonization, is proud to announce a strategic Collaboration Agreement with Southern Energy, a Wyoming-based developer of low-carbon fuels. Under this agreement, MSP will serve as the carbon sequestration provider for Southern Energy’s $1 billion biomass-to-methanol and sustainable aviation fuel (SAF)

Beckers Group announces collaboration with Anodyne Chemistries to develop world-first renewable chemicals

HHPA is an essential component in high-performance coating formulations. However, its carbon intensity is a significant contributor to the carbon footprint of Beckers’ high-performance coatings and it is fully derived from petrochemical feedstocks. There are currently no sustainable HHPA alternatives on the market. Pioneering more sustainable solutions Anodyne is pioneering a sustainable way to produce

Axens, IFPEN, and SMS group Launch Carboverseo™: Essential Technology for e-fuels deployment

In a groundbreaking development, Axens, in collaboration with IFP Energies nouvelles (IFPEN) and Paul Wurth (SMS Group), has successfully homologated the Carboverseo™ technology. This innovative reverse water-gas shift process, which converts CO2 into CO, is now live and ready to revolutionize the e-fuel industry by providing a robust and scalable solution for transforming CO2 into

GCMD successfully demonstrates world’s first end-to-end value chain for onboard captured CO2

The Global Centre for Maritime Decarbonisation has successfully completed the world’s first maritime pilot demonstrating the full value chain of onboard captured carbon dioxide (CO2) in China on 25 June 2025. The pilot encompassed two phases. In the first phase, Shanghai Qiyao Environmental Technology Co., Ltd. (SMDERI-QET) conducted a ship-to-ship (STS) transfer of 25.44 metric

Making Plastic from Carbon Dioxide, Water, and Electricity

What if a machine could suck up carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, run it through a series of chemical reactions, and essentially spit out industrially useful plastic? Reporting in the journal Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Agapie and a team of Caltech chemists have developed a system that uses electricity from sustainable sources to carry out the chemical

From Policy and Technologies to Practice: Twelve Interactive Expert Workshops at the Renewable Materials Conference 2025

From 22–24 September 2025, nova-Institute once again hosts the Renewable Materials Conference (RMC) in Siegburg/Cologne (Germany). This leading event will showcase innovative solutions for replacing fossil carbon in chemicals and materials with renewable carbon from biomass, CO₂ and recycling. The conference brings together key players from industry, academia and policy to explore the technologies, innovations and

Von Politik und Technologie zur Praxis: Zwölf interaktive Experten-Workshops auf der Renewable Materials Conference 2025

Vom 22. bis 24. September 2025 veranstaltet das nova-Institut erneut die Renewable Materials Conference (RMC) in Siegburg bei Köln. Auf dieser führenden Veranstaltung für erneuerbare Materialien werden innovative Lösungen für die Verwendung von erneuerbarem Kohlenstoff aus Biomasse, CO₂ und Recycling anstelle fossiler Kohlenstoffe in Chemikalien und Materialien vorgestellt. Die Konferenz bringt die wichtigsten Akteure aus Industrie,

New sorption-enhanced methanation plant at Empa

On June 16, Empa inaugurated its novel methanation plant. The move-MEGA research project is the first to demonstrate so-called sorption-enhanced methanation at pilot scale – a technology developed at Empa that makes the power-to-gas process more flexible and robust. The produced synthetic methane can serve as a renewable energy carrier, replacing fossil natural gas. In
