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

Avantium and SCGC partner to bring CO₂-based polymers to pilot phase

Avantium N.V., a leading technology provider in renewable chemistry, announces that it has agreed to partner with SCG Chemicals Public Company Limited (“SCGC”), a leading integrated chemical player in Asia and an innovator of chemical innovations and solutions. Under this partnership, Avantium and SCGC agreed to further develop CO2-based polymers and to scale-up to a pilot

Using Cyanobacteria to Convert Carbon Dioxide into Glucose

The plant-biomass-sugar route dominates the current glucose supply, while it is influenced by multiple parameters, such as plant-cultivation cycles, biomass-collection radius, and pre-treatment costs. Against the backdrop of global climate crisis and worsening food shortages, developing more efficient, continual, and industrial glucose production routes is needed. However, direct conversion of carbon dioxide into glucose through

Producer of Green Fuel from Waste Wins £4m Funding to Capture CO₂ from Process

Compact Syngas Solutions (CSS) has won £3,979,113 from the Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (H2BECCS) Innovation Programme, run by the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ). CSS, based in Deeside, Wales, previously won a first round of funding of £246,568. CSS have developed an advanced gasification process that generates hydrogen gas from

Econic Technologies and Monument Chemical announce licensing agreement to develop and grow CO₂ based polyurethanes in USA

Monument Chemical is the first US company to license Econic’s process for manufacturing polycarbonate ether (PCE) polyols made from CO2 as a sustainable source of renewable carbon. With Econic’s technology, Monument will upcycle waste carbon dioxide into polyols for high-performance foams, laminates, coatings, and elastomers for use in automotive, furniture, mattress, construction, and industrial applications. Monument will

Clean, sustainable fuels made ‘from thin air’ and plastic waste

The researchers, from the University of Cambridge, developed a solar-powered reactor that converts captured CO2 and plastic waste into sustainable fuels and other valuable chemical products. In tests, CO2 was converted into syngas, a key building block for sustainable liquid fuels, and plastic bottles were converted into glycolic acid, which is widely used in the
