Amyris processes Ceres sweet sorghum into renewable diesel using soluble and cellulosic sugars

Green Car Congress

into renewable diesel in a US Department of Energy (DOE) funded biorefinery project. The pilot-scale project use both free (soluble) sugars and biomass (cellulosic) sugars from Ceres’ sweet sorghum hybrids grown in Alabama, Florida, Hawaii, Louisiana and Tennessee. Amyris modifies farnesene to become renewable diesel.

Ionova Technologies says ZIP-Cap ultracapacitors can offer 5x increase in energy density and 25x reduction in build cost (updated with graphic)

Green Car Congress

Asymmetric ultracapacitors based on non-aqueous electrolytes provide improvements in energy density but they typically do so at the expense of power density while providing no improvement in cost, safety or in environmental impact. And this chemistry and architecture allow low-cost, ultra large scale manufacturing. Resources. ?

DOE Awards $20M to Boost Development of Innovative Geothermal Technologies

Green Car Congress

However, most low temperature geothermal resources are not hot enough to be harnessed through traditional geothermal processes, including dry steam or flash steam power plants, which typically use water at temperatures greater than 360 °F (182 °C). Historically, this coproduced hot water has been treated as a waste product.
