Oak Ridge National Lab, in partnership with the US Department of Energy, aims to collect, review, and distribute the best available and citable global data on current biomass uses, and potential future availability as consistent as possible; at the same time, developing effective methods for systematizing, cataloging and harmonizing inventory data from varying sources and […]
Carbon is the foundation of our material world, says LanzaTech CTO Rob Conrado in these slides presented at ABLC 2024. It’s in the products we use, the planes we fly, the clothes we wear. Where our carbon comes from will define our climate future. Good news, the world has enough carbon above ground to make […]
Dimethyl-ether is a single molecule that can be produced from a wide range of renewable feedstocks. It can be blended with LPG and used in existing applications. It is chemically similar to propane and butane, and is a gas at room temperature and pressure. Like LPG it is easily transported as a liquid in pressurized […]
A decarbonization path for the LPG sector continues to increase in importance as a response to political forces which affect regulatory survivability and access to capital. Global North LPG marketers are responding to the lack of green LPG by getting involved in upstream green supply development. Global South countries are looking for ways to unlock […]
DG Fuels is an emerging leader in renewable hydrogen and biogenic based, synthetic low emissions aviation and diesel fuel, and this deck looks at their second-generation cellulosic biofuel and their market expansion plans, whose hydrogen content is derived from water electrolysis and uses a Fischer Tropsch based process with 96% carbon feedstock conversion efficiency and […]
Renewable H2 production that requires ~40% less electricity than state-of-the-art electrolysis> That’s the promise of early-stager Nzyme2HC. As the company puts it, “The amount of electricity required to produce green H2 must be significantly reduced. We have designed a system that does this. It is nearly 40% more energy-efficient than electrolysis of water.”Nzyme2HC CEO Steve […]
Reverse Water-Gas Shift has long been a process converting hydrogen and carbon dioxide into a syngas for fuels production, but as the world shifts from conventional fuels to electrofuels, producers need to know that their operations can contribute effectively to global sustainability initiatives. By utilizing electrical heating instead of traditional fossil combustion, eREACT Fuels allows […]
There are a number of possible routes to convert emissions into polymers. Plastics contain carbon for the entire duration of their useful life and during the time which they are not degrading in a landfill. Since plastics can take centuries to degrade, it’s a compelling idea for carbon sequestration, not without challenges illuminated by NexantECA’s […]
The Bold Goals Action Group released the final text of the 40 Bold Actions to Accelerate at ABLC 2024, and they can be found here. The release capped a year-long, multi-national effort by bioeconomy stakeholders to define specific actions that must be accomplished by industry, financiers and government in order to reach ambitious Net Zero […]
