Clariant Catalysts fosters decarbonization research in China through sponsorship of NCC Award

The 21st National Congress on Catalysis of China (NCC) was held on July 21-25 in Kunming, China, with more than 3000 participants The awardee, Prof. Dr. Xinhe Bao, is a world-renowned physical chemist, engaged in research of new catalyst materials for clean and efficient energy conversion, among others Clariant, a sustainability-focused specialty chemical company, announced

Electrochemical device captures carbon dioxide at the flick of a switch

New technology developed by Rice University engineers could lower the cost of capturing carbon dioxide from all types of emissions, a potential game-changer for both industries looking to adapt to evolving greenhouse gas standards and for the emergent energy-transition economy. According to a study published in Nature, the system from the lab of chemical and biomolecular engineer Haotian Wang can directly remove carbon dioxide from

Carbon Capture Scotland to capture and re-use green CO2

The captured carbon dioxide will be used by CCSL to create low-carbon and low-energy dry ice for use in the food, cold logistics and pharmaceutical industries. Richard Nimmons, Director of Carbon Capture Scotland Limited said, “CCSL’s partnership with Iona will accelerate our business growth in our home market of Scotland and further afield. Importantly, it

Game-Changing Industrial Hemp Forward Carbon Credits

These ground-breaking credits from the 2023 harvest, are based on a precise quantification methodology that harnesses remote sensing technology to accurately measure CO2 sequestration at scale. As the world faces the urgent need to address climate change and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, Hemp Carbon Standard recognizes the immense potential of industrial hemp cultivation in sequestering

Twelve Commences Construction of First Commercial-Scale Plant in US for Producing Sustainable Aviation Fuel from CO2

Twelve, the carbon transformation company, broke ground on its commercial-scale E-Jet® fuel production facility in Moses Lake, Washington. The company marked the occasion with remarks by Washington Gov. Jay Inslee, Washington State Sen. Julie Warnick, and a panel conversation on sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) between Twelve Co-Founder and Chief Science Officer, Etosha Cave, Alaska Airlines VP of

No Sustainable Future Without Carbon Capture and Utilisation (CCU)

CCU enables the substitution of fossil carbon in sectors where carbon is necessary, supports the full defossilisation of the chemical and derived material industries, creates a circular economy, reduces the emission gap, promotes sustainable carbon cycles, fosters innovation, generates local value and stimulates job growth. The Renewable Carbon Initiative (RCI), an alliance of more than

Keine nachhaltige Zukunft ohne CO2-Nutzung (Carbon Capture and Utilisation (CCU))

CCU ermöglicht die Substitution von fossilem Kohlenstoff in Sektoren, die Kohlenstoff benötigen, unterstützt die vollständige Defossilisierung der Chemie- und Werkstoffindustrie, schafft eine Kreislaufwirtschaft, reduziert die Emissionslücke, fördert nachhaltige Kohlenstoffkreisläufe, fördert Innovation, schafft lokale Wertschöpfung und stimuliert Beschäftigungswachstum. Die Renewable Carbon Initiative (RCI), ein Zusammenschluss von mehr als 60 renommierten Unternehmen, KMUs und Start-ups, hat das

Chemische Industrie soll mit Recycling CO₂ vermeiden

Die Chemieindustrie wird sich auf dem Weg zur Klimaneutralität stärker als bislang auf Recycling und den Einsatz erneuerbarer Rohstoffe fokussieren müssen. Zu diesem Ergebnis kommt eine Studie des Thinktanks Agora Energiewende, die dem Handelsblatt vorliegt. Frank Peter, Direktor Industrie bei Agora Energiewende, sagte dem Handelsblatt, für die Branche werde zwar der Einsatz von erneuerbarem Wasserstoff

Klimaneutrale Kraftstoffe aus CO₂, Biomasse und Strom

Das Zentrum für nachhaltige Kraftstoffe (ZENK) an den Fraunhofer-Instituten IGB in Straubing und UMSICHT in Sulzbach-Rosenberg hat das Ziel, neue Produktionswege für klimaneutrale Kraftstoffe auf Basis von CO2, Biomasse und erneuerbarem Strom zu entwickeln. Flüssige Kraftstoffe mit hoher Energiedichte werden auch in Zukunft in verschiedenen Bereichen der Mobilität benötigt, wie zum Beispiel im Flugverkehr, der

Braskem and New Iridium Partner to Develop CO₂ Conversion Technology and Contribute to the Industry’s Carbon Neutrality

Committed to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, Braskem has been investing in partnerships and technologies to expand its capacity to create sustainable and innovative solutions that reduce environmental impacts from production processes. The partnership with New Iridium focuses on CO2 conversion via photocatalysis, the startup’s expertise, which is an innovative solution based on the use of light
