US-based Raven SR to build waste-to-hydrogen project in Spain

Green Car Congress

Raven SR, a US-based renewable fuels company ( earlier post ), plans to build a waste-to-hydrogen production facility in Aragón, Spain, following the opening of its subsidiary Raven SR Iberia in Zaragoza, announced earlier this month. Raven can also control the temperature gradient along the axis of the rotary reformer from 300 °F (149 ?C)

Synhelion raises CHF 22M (US$23.6M) to support scaling of solar fuel production

Green Car Congress

Synhelion has developed a solar thermal process for the production of syngas, which is then used in standard industrial processes to synthesize liquid fuels, such as kerosene, gasoline, or diesel, that are compatible with conventional jet engines and internal combustion engines. This ultra-clean solar fuel closes the carbon cycle.

Repsol produces renewable hydrogen from biomethane from urban solid waste

Green Car Congress

Spain-based energy and petrochemical company Repsol has produced renewable hydrogen using biomethane as raw material for the first time. This milestone took place at Repsol’s Cartagena Industrial Complex, where 10 tons of renewable hydrogen were produced from 500 MWh of biomethane, thus avoiding the emission of about 90 tons of CO 2.

Aramco and Stellantis collaboration indicates eFuel compatibility with 24 European engine families produced since 2014 (Euro 6)

Green Car Congress

Low-carbon eFuel is a drop-in synthetic fuel made by reacting CO 2 , captured either directly from the atmosphere or from an industrial facility, with renewable hydrogen. In Saudi Arabia, Aramco and ENOWA (Neom Energy and Water Company) are working to demonstrate the production of synthetic gasoline for light-duty passenger vehicles.

New catalysts enable photocatalytic version of water gas shift reaction for H2 production

Green Car Congress

Politécnica de Valencia (Spain) have found that noble metal nanoparticles supported on titanium dioxide or cerium dioxide can catalyze the industrially important water gas shift (WGS) reaction for hydrogen production at ambient temperatures using visible light irradiation. Researchers at the Univ. —Sastre et al.

Researchers team up algae and bacteria to boost hydrogen production

Green Car Congress

A team from the University of Cordoba in Spain and the University of Tehran in Iran has been searching for ways to increase hydrogen production by using microorganisms, specifically microalgae and bacteria. This knowledge may open new possibilities for the biohydrogen production from industrial wastes. —Fakhimi et al.
