Dairies, landfills, wastewater treatment plants, food processing plants…wherever there’s biomass, there’s potential for biogas and renewable natural gas. Check out this illuminating slide guide from William Orts at the USDA Western Regional Research Center in Albany, CA on biorefineries based on MSW and ag-derived biomass projects, and more.
Material Recovery Facilities have poor economics. Consumers don’t want to be inconvenienced by recycling. There are gaps and challenges to the plastics value chain so what do we do? Nexant shares solid solutions like increasing mechanization at MRFs and investing in them, advancing chemical recycling technologies, designing products with recycling in mind, and more.
Is hemp grain the next sustainable source of plant based protein and healthy lipids? What are the latest hemp varieties in the product pipeline? How does hemp compare to corn, canola, soy? Check out this slide guide from John McKay at New West Genetics on how hemp is the carbon negative biodiesel feedstock of the […]

Neste published its new Market and Innovation Outlook report which compiles Neste’s views based on validated data for regulators, innovators, industry players and other organizations aiming to create a renewable and circular future. The Digest culled key slides from the report’s 3 key themes.
5 million tons of CO2 reduction by 2025 and 100% of their energy products to be from renewable sources in 2040 are part of SHV Energy’s ambitions. How does renewable propane and bioLPG fit in? What was the Sustainable Fuels Open Innovation Challenge, how does that tie in with SHV Energy’s goals, and who won […]
1.5 Mton/a sustainable aviation fuels production capacity by the end of 2023 with plans to grow capacity, helping customers reduce their GHG emissions by at least 20 million tons annually by 2030, reaching carbon neutral production by 2035 – these are some of Neste’s goals. How will they get there?
Raven SR’s tech addresses 3 markets – waste handling, hydrogen and biofuels – by converting global pollution into clean fuels and removing carbon from the environment. Learn about their process that creates a syngas that has more hydrogen and less GHG than other processes, their site plan, how they are NOT typical gasification, and more.
Cyamonia Bio’s tech for the production of organic ammonia based on atmospheric nitrogen fixation just might be disrupting a multi-billion dollar industry of nitrogen fertilizer production and instead contributing to more sustainable food production. How do they compare to PivotBio and Azotic Tech? Where are their commercial pilot installations? How can they replace chemical fertilizers […]
2021 brought significant progress on increasing production of bioLNG and renewable synthetic LNG and leading the move to a cleaner future for the deep-sea maritime industry. BioLNG from sustainable biomass resources is increasingly available and has massive potential to scale while renewable synthetic LNG will play a key role in maritime decarbonisation as renewable electricity […]
