G2X Energy and EMRE sign methanol to gasoline technology license and license option agreements; plans for $1.3B natural gas to gasoline plant

Green Car Congress

The MTG process first dehydrates methanol to dimethylether (DME); an equilibrium mixture of methanol, DME and water is then converted to light olefins (C 2 -C 4 ). G2X Energy will use natural gas to produce methanol, then convert methanol to final gasoline for 90% of its production. gasoline range. Source: EMRE.

Researchers create efficient, simple-to-manufacture photoanode for solar water-splitting

Green Car Congress

Researchers at Rice University and the University of Houston created an efficient, simple-to-manufacture core/shell photoanode with a highly active oxygen evolution electrocatalyst shell (FeMnP) and semiconductor core (rutile TiO 2 ) for the photoelectrochemical oxygen evolution reaction (PEC-OER) for solar water splitting.

Asked when there might be one million electric vehicles on the road that could also feed their battery capacity back into the grid in a two-way exchange, the panelists generally said between 2017 and 2020. In effect therefore, the more energy convertion stages there are the less efficient the process is. — Mark - Dallas 25.
