In Texas, researchers at the University of Houston made two significant breakthroughs that could reduce the cost of capturing harmful emissions from power plants, marking a major step in addressing climate change. The first breakthrough, published in Nature Communications, introduces a membraneless electrochemical process that slashes energy requirements for amine-based carbon dioxide (CO₂) capture. The […]
In Texas, XCF Global, Inc. and FlyORO Technologies Pte. Ltd. announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding. Under the MOU, XCF and FlyORO will explore the creation of a global partnership to help solve one of aviation’s biggest bottlenecks: SAF supply chain and blending inefficiencies. As most blending occurs upstream at production facilities, there […]
In Texas, Green Carbon Development, led by Process Technical Services (PTS), has selected Axens Vegan® technology for its upcoming renewable fuels facility. Designed for a capacity of 10,500 barrels per stream day (BPSD), the Jasper project will deploy the Vegan® hydroprocessing solution to flexibly produce both Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) and Renewable Diesel (RD). This […]
In Texas, Darling Ingredients, a 50/50 joint venture between Darling Ingredients Inc. and Valero Energy Corporation, announced an agreement to sell $125 million of production tax credits to a corporate buyer. These credits were generated under the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) by the company’s Diamond Green Diesel joint venture, and the proceeds of the sale […]
In Texas, XCF Global, Inc. has signed a Letter of Intent with Posh Robotics through its subsidiary New Rise Renewables Reno, LLC to explore deploying Posh Energy’s Flex-Fuel Gensets at the New Rise Reno renewable fuels facility.

In Texas, HIF Global has selected Electric Hydrogen (EH2) to supply its cutting-edge electrolyzer systems for HIF’s Texas e-Fuels facility. Electric Hydrogen’s high-power electrolyzers, engineered and manufactured in the United States, are pioneering the next generation of low-cost, high-performance hydrogen production and leveraging modularization to dramatically reduce costs and construction timelines. The electrochemical stacks, the heart […]
In Texas, Argus has launched a suite of prices for the environmental attributes of biomethane, also known as renewable natural gas, which market participants can use to offset carbon emissions in compliance and voluntary markets. In a market first for North America, the calculated prices bring new transparency to renewable thermal certificates (RTCs) generated from landfill-derived […]
In Texas, Lummus Technology announced Vioneo has selected its Novolen® polypropylene (PP) technology for a new grassroots plant in Antwerp, Belgium. The plant will be part of Vioneo’s complex that, once complete, will be the world’s first industrial scale fossil-free plastics production complex. The complex, based on green methanol as feedstock, will also be highly […]
In Texas, growing concern over the harmful effects of petroleum-based, non-degradable materials on the environment has intensified the demand for sustainable alternatives, such as natural or biomaterials. Bacterial cellulose has emerged as a potential biomaterial that is naturally abundant, biodegradable and biocompatible. To strengthen the cellulose and create more functionality, a team of researchers from […]
