In Massachusetts, ESG Clean Energy says its carbon capture system has achieved capturing 100% of the CO2 from a combustion exhaust stream, making it possible for any internal combustion engine – big or small – to have no carbon dioxide emissions. ESG’s carbon capture system consists of a two-step process; first removing the water from […]
In Illinois, carbon dioxide is leaking from industrial operations into the atmosphere, causing a cascade of dangerous changes to Earth’s climate. But some scientists wondered if instead it could instead be captured and converted to useful chemicals. A group of scientists with Argonne National Laboratory and the University of Chicago, Northern Illinois University and Valparaiso […]
In Brazil, FS, a producer of ethanol and animal nutrition said it has just completed technical studies that prove suitable geological conditions for injecting carbon dioxide (CO2), emitted in the fermentation phase of biofuel production, in the subsoil. The firm said it could become the world’s first ethanol producer with a negative carbon footprint and […]
In Illinois, in a collaborative project involving the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory, Northern Illinois University and Valparaiso University scientists report a family of catalysts that efficiently converts CO2 into ethanol, acetic acid or formic acid. These liquid hydrocarbons are among the most produced chemicals in the U.S. and are found in […]
In Singapore, a team of scientists from the National University of Singapore has developed a novel technique to convert carbon dioxide (CO2) from treated flue gas directly into high-value chemicals and fuels. This innovation sidesteps the conventional approach of using high-purity CO2 for electrochemical reduction processes, achieving significant cost savings of about 30%. Addressing the […]
In Texas, Anew Climate announced a marketing agreement with Summit Carbon Solutions. Under the terms of the agreement, Anew will market carbon dioxide removal credits (CDRs) generated from Summit Carbon’s novel Biomass with Carbon Removal and Storage (BiCRS) project, which is expected to capture and sequester more than 160 million tonnes of biogenic carbon dioxide […]
In Singapore, addressing the urgent challenge posed by escalating carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and their impact on climate change, researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed a novel technique that significantly advances the conversion of waste carbon dioxide (CO2) into value-added chemicals and fuels. The research team’s innovation enables the direct conversion […]
In Illinois, while decarbonization pathways are complex, varied and specific to individual industries, clean-energy technologies and low- and zero-carbon fuels are integral to all carbon dioxide (CO2) mitigation strategies across the U.S. economy. And as scientists develop strategies, they are also creating tools to assess them. Now, scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) […]
In the UK, researchers have successfully transformed CO2 into methanol by shining sunlight on single atoms of copper deposited on a light-activated material, a discovery that paves the way for creating new green fuels. An international team of researchers from the University of Nottingham’s School of Chemistry, University of Birmingham, University of Queensland and University […]
In North Dakota, Red Trail Energy, LLC (RTE), and Puro.earth announced issuance of RTE’s carbon dioxide (CO2) removal credits on the Puro Registry, making it the first ethanol production facility to generate CO2 Removal Certificates (CORCs) in the voluntary carbon market (VCM) and the largest durable carbon removal project registered to date. RTE will be […]
