Carbon Matchmaker

The Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management is focused on advancing carbon management technologies to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions through strong public-private partnerships and in a just and sustainable way. The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) enables this mission by directing over $12 billion dollars for carbon management research, development, and demonstration (RD&D) over the next

To Battle Climate Change, Scientists Tap Into Carbon-Hungry Microorganisms for Clues

Scientists at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) have demonstrated a new technique, modeled after a metabolic process found in some bacteria, for converting carbon dioxide (CO2) into liquid acetate, a key ingredient in “liquid sunlight” or solar fuels produced through artificial photosynthesis. The new approach, reported in Nature Catalysis, could help advance carbon-free alternatives to fossil

Prince William unveils Lanzatech as a Finalist for the Second Annual Earthshot Prize Awards

Launched in 2020 by HRH Prince William, The Earthshot Prize is the world’s most prestigious environmental prize LanzaTech’s gas fermentation technology traps pollution and turns it into something useful. By targeting CO2, as well as industrial, municipal and agricultural waste, the company has discovered a way to produce large quantities of useful materials, while keeping

SigmaRoc to install carbon capture facility

SigmaRoc plc is pleased to announce that it will install its first carbon capture facility in Q1 2023 with the aim to capture all kiln process emissions by 2030, well ahead of its 2040 Net-Zero targets. Highlights: The Group has entered into an agreement with Aqualung Carbon Capture AS (‘Aqualung’) a leading membrane carbon capture and separation technology provider; Each shipping container sized unit will be capable of capturing up to 25% of one of Nordkalk’s typical kiln’s process emissions, using Aqualung’s simple and low

Products Made With Captured Greenhouse Gas Are Reaching Commercial Scale

Straws, bottles and packaging made with captured greenhouse-gas are starting to reach commercial scale, offering a way for businesses making and using everyday products to reduce emissions contributing to global warming. Locking up greenhouse gas in ingredients that go into products can be costly compared with petroleum-based options and presents hurdles to building out enough
