Clariant’s MegaMax™ 900 catalyst: Powerful start at European Energy’s e-methanol plant

Clariant, a sustainability-focused specialty chemical company, today announced the successful startup of its MegaMax 900 methanol synthesis catalyst at European Energy’s e-methanol plant. Located in Kasso, Denmark, the facility is one of the world’s first and, up to now, largest commercial e-methanol plant, using biogenic CO2 and green hydrogen to produce up to 42,000 tons

SwRI develops process to produce graphene from CO2

Chemical engineers at Southwest Research Institute produced gram quantities of graphene and other carbonaceous materials by bubbling carbon dioxide through a bed of liquefied alkali earth metals. Graphene, a carbon allotrope, is used for everything from biomedical devices to sensors and electronics. The internally funded project advances the lab-scale conversion of CO2 into graphene which, like

Research project discovers ways to convert forest industry’s carbon dioxide emissions into raw material for plastics – results pave way for new sustainable industry

VTT Technical research centre of Finland and LUT University have completed a three-year research project on carbon capture and utilisation. The project investigated different technologies for producing renewable plastic raw materials from carbon dioxide and green hydrogen. Renewable energy, hydrogen economy and forest industry’s biogenic carbon dioxide emissions present significant opportunities for new sustainable industries.

BASF and Forestal collaborate on advanced e-methanol production using OASE® technology

BASF and Forestal de Atlántico S.A. (Forestal) have signed an early disclosure agreement (EDA) aimed at advancing the production of e-methanol (eMeOH) through carbon capture solutions. Under this strategic partnership, BASF has been selected to share its proprietary OASE® blue technology, designed for the efficient removal of CO2 from flue gases, for use in Forestal’s pioneering Triskelion

BASF und Forestal kooperieren bei der Herstellung von e-Methanol unter Einsatz der OASE-Technology

BASF und Forestal de Atlantico S.A. (Forestal) haben eine Vereinbarung zur frühzeitigen Offenlegung von Informationen (Early Disclosure Agreement, EDA) unterzeichnet, um die Produktion von e-Methanol (eMeOH) durch Lösungen zur CO2-Abscheidung voranzutreiben. Im Rahmen dieser strategischen Partnerschaft hat sich Forestal für die patentrechtlich geschützte OASE blue-Technologie von BASF entschieden und setzt diese zur effizienten Abtrennung von

A novel path to sustainable hydrogen storage

Since its launch in 2022, the EU-funded MOST-H2 project has been working on a way to store hydrogen efficiently, safely and economically. Now in its third year, it has made significant progress towards advancing the types of hydrogen storage technologies Europe needs to achieve its climate goals. MOST-H2’s secret weapon in its cryo-adsorptive hydrogen storage

Neuartiger Weg zur nachhaltigen Wasserstoffspeicherung

Seit seinem Start 2022 arbeitet das Team des EU-finanzierten Projekts MOST-H2 an einer effizienten, sicheren und wirtschaftlichen Art der Wasserstoffspeicherung. Im dritten Projektjahr sind bedeutende Fortschritte bei der Weiterentwicklung von Wasserstoffspeichertechnologien zu verzeichnen, die Europa benötigt, um seine Klimaziele zu erreichen. Die Geheimwaffe des MOST-H2-Teams bei seinen kryoadsorptiven Wasserstoffspeicherungslösungen stellt eine spezielle Klasse poröser kristalliner

Monthly news from the Renewable Carbon Initiative (RCI), March 2025

Welcome to the March edition of RCI’s monthly news! This month, RCI highlights its next large publication – a methodological study on LCA approaches for renewable carbon sources. This study is expected to make a valuable contribution to the ongoing discussions on sustainability assessment of renewable carbon. Moreover, RCI was in Brussels, participating in a conference, a

First biogenic CO2 delivered from Tønder Biogas to Kassø Power-to-X facility

Ammongas, is developing carbon capture (CCU and CCS) technology in southern Denmark via a new CO₂ liquefaction facility at Tønder Biogas – one of the largest biogas plants in Europe. This facility, which is now commissioned, will capture, purify, and liquefy biogenic CO₂. The Kassø facility has the capacity to produce 48,000 tonnes of liquefied
