LanzaTech Awarded $3 Million from U.S. Department of Energy to Advance Conversion of Waste CO2 into Valuable Chemicals

LanzaTech Global, Inc. (NASDAQ: LNZA) (“LanzaTech” or the “Company”), the carbon recycling company transforming waste carbon into sustainable fuels, chemicals, materials, and protein, has been awarded $3 million by the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (FECM), as part of a broader $29 million investment program to advance its

New report on carbon farming in the European forestry sector

Forest management in Europe requires a long-term, sustainable approach, moving beyond the current focus on short-term profit gains. A new EFI report launched today details how carbon farming – a set of agricultural practices that help capture and store carbon dioxide in soil and plants – can be best managed to maximise its climate potential and mitigate

Regulatory and technological advances in CO2 shipping

Onboard carbon capture and storage (OCCS) and CO2 sequestration are major topics of 2024, with technological developments accelerating adoption across the maritime industry. At the same time, IMO is working to develop a regulatory framework in response to member requests. Several regulatory initiatives are being led by IMO’s Intersessional Working Group on Greenhouse Gases (ISWG-GHG)

Leveraging on its proprietary technologies: NEXTCHEM signs an agreement with KazMunayGas-Aero to cooperate in the development of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) in Kazakhstan

During the Forum Kazakhstan-Italy being held in Milan from 7 to 9 October, NEXTCHEM and KazMunayGas-Aero (KMG AERO) have signed an agreement to collaborate on advancing energy transition initiatives, leveraging on NEXTCHEM’s proprietary technology portfolio and process engineering capabilities. These initiatives aim at contributing to the decarbonization and upgrade of KAZAKHSTAN’s industry and assets, in particular for the production of

Maire und NextChem unterzeichnen Vereinbarung zur Entwicklung von SAF-Initiativen in Kasachstan

Maire Tecnimont Spa gab am Dienstag bekannt, dass NextChem und KazMunayGas-Aero eine Absichtserklärung unterzeichnet haben, um bei der Förderung von Initiativen zur Energiewende zusammenzuarbeiten und dabei das Portfolio von NextChem an eigenen Technologien und verfahrenstechnischen Fähigkeiten zu nutzen. Das Unternehmen erklärte in einer Mitteilung, dass diese Initiative darauf abzielt, zur Dekarbonisierung und Effizienz der kasachischen

Blue carbon: an excellent way to store carbon dioxide

Ocean habitats play a key role in storing carbon from the atmosphere; but until now, nobody has known exactly how much ‘blue carbon’ ends up in kelp, seagrass meadows, salt marshes and sediment in the seabed. Now, we tend to damage this carbon storage: by activities such as commercial trawling and destroying coastal wetlands. A new area of

In step toward solar fuels, durable artificial photosynthesis setup chains two carbons together

A key step toward reusing CO2 to make sustainable fuels is chaining carbon atoms together, and an artificial photosynthesis system developed at the University of Michigan can bind two of them into hydrocarbons with field-leading performance. The system produces ethylene with efficiency, yield and longevity well above other artificial photosynthesis systems. Ethylene is a hydrocarbon

‘Growing Impact’ explores using catalysts to convert CO2 into valuable products

The latest episode of the “Growing Impact” podcast explores how researchers are using advanced computation to design catalysts that can accelerate the process of converting carbon dioxide into useful products. Nelson Yaw Dzade, an assistant professor in the John and Willie Leone Department of Energy and Mineral Engineering at Penn State, is leading the project that

Braskem Collaborates with the University of British Columbia to Develop Technology for Producing Methanol from CO2

Braskem (B3: BRKM3, BRKM5, and BRKM6; NYSE: BAK; LATIBEX: XBRK) the largest polyolefins producer in the Americas, as well as a global market leader and pioneer producer of biopolymers on an industrial scale, has announced a collaboration with the University of British Columbia (UBC) to explore the feasibility of using an electrochemical reactor to produce methanol
