New photocatalyst for selective conversion of fatty acids to diesel- and jet-range molecules

Green Car Congress

The production of such alkanes from renewable biomass instead of fossil resources is very attractive and important for sustainable energy and chemical supply. A substantial amount of fatty acids are produced as low-value by-products in fat and oil processing and the pulp industry. —Huang et al.

Haldor Topsoe to build large-scale SOEC electrolyzer manufacturing facility to meet customer needs for green hydrogen

Green Car Congress

Solid oxide electrolysis cell (SOEC) technology is attractive because of unrivaled conversion efficiencies—a result of favorable thermodynamics and kinetics at higher operating temperatures. The SOEC is mainly built of abundant and low-cost ceramic materials in a metal housing. The facility is expected to be operational by 2023.

EU research project IDEALFUEL seeks to develop marine low-sulfur heavy fuel oils from biomass; Bio-HFO

Green Car Congress

The IDEALFUEL project aims to create sustainable alternatives by developing new efficient and low-cost methods to produce low-sulfur heavy fuel oils from wood-based non-food biomass. Although cleaner fuels are available, many companies opt for HFOs due to their low cost. This project has received funding (€4.8

Perspective: Drive Star Conversion Program Could Cut US Oil Use in Half by 2020

Green Car Congress

We ask organizations to move this realistic, conservative, and cost-effective approach to the top of their talking points and priorities. How President Obama Can Announce Drive Star to Cut Oil Use in Half by 2020. That means we’ll be powering some miles with increasingly renewable electricity that isn't made from imported oil.
