LanzaTech collaborating with Swayana to convert waste gases from ferroalloy production to ethanol

Green Car Congress

The energy produced is assumed to be used internally at the site and the carbon content of the CO subsequently converted to CO 2 in-plant. Any CO emitted to the atmosphere is assumed to be converted to CO 2 within days afterwards. The CO gas produced in open or semi-closed furnaces is burnt to CO 2 above the charge level.

TU Bergakademie Freiberg launches OTTO-R project with VW Group, Shell, OMV as partners; P2X for green gasoline

Green Car Congress

million OTTO-R project for the production of gasoline from “green” methanol produced from CO 2 , water and renewable electricity. STF first converts natural gas-based synthesis gas to methanol in an isothermal reactor; the methanol is then transformed into high-octane gasoline via the intermediate methanol.

Study shows gasoline pre-blending in ethanol production could cut energy requirements of separation by 17-40%

Green Car Congress

Researchers at the University of Witwatersrand and the University of South Africa are proposing replacing the final purification steps of conventional bio-ethanol production with a simple gasoline-blending step. The nature of the fermentation process dictates that fermentation products are dilute, comprised primarily of water.
