Samsung Heavy and Seaborg to develop floating nuclear power plant combined with hydrogen and ammonia plants

Green Car Congress

Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI) and Seaborg signed a partnership agreement to develop floating nuclear power plants based on Seaborg’s inherently safe Compact Molten Salt Reactor (CMSR). The floating nuclear power plant comes as a turn-key product, ready to be moored at an industrial harbor. This provides significant safety benefits.

SGH2 building largest green hydrogen production facility in California; gasification of waste into H2

Green Car Congress

Energy company SGH2 is bringing the world’s biggest green hydrogen production facility to Lancaster, California. In the gasification island’s catalyst-bed chamber, plasma torches generate such high temperatures (3500 ºC - 4000 ºC), that the waste feedstock disintegrates into its molecular compounds, without combustion ash or toxic fly ash.

New catalyst opens door to CO2 capture in coal-to-liquids process

Green Car Congress

World energy consumption projections expect coal to stay one of the world’s main energy sources in the coming decades, and a growing share of it will be used in CT—the conversion of coal to liquid fuels (CTL). By 2020, CTL is expected to account for 15% of the coal use in China. —Wang et al. Resources.

Carbon Recycling International and Johnson Matthey collaborate on sustainable methanol

Green Car Congress

Conventional methanol production involves fossil feedstocks such as natural gas or coal. This can be recovered from either industrial processes or biomass, such as waste and residues, or atmospheric sources. Hydrogen can also be processed from by-product hydrogen available in some industrial waste streams.
