Raven SR waste-to-hydrogen plant in California to be powered by INNIO Jenbacher’s Ready-for-H2 engines

Green Car Congress

At the site, landfill gas (LFG) will be the primary fuel to provide power for the non-combustion process that converts waste to hydrogen. The hydrogen product will be resold to power fuel cells in heavy-duty trucks. tons of organic waste per day and produce up to 2,000 metric tons per year of hydrogen.

HyMethShip seeks to fuel ship engines with hydrogen from methanol

Green Car Congress

The EU-funded HyMethShip project developed a system that innovatively combined a membrane reactor, a CO 2 capture system, a storage system for CO 2 and methanol as well as a hydrogen-fueled combustion engine to power ships. The top part of the graphic shows onshore methanol production. The system’s technical centerpiece is the reactor.

New BMW Brilliance engine plant with light metal foundry in China; high-voltage battery production to come

Green Car Congress

For example machining work at the new plant uses a water recovery system similar to that at the BMW Group Plant Steyr (Austria), resulting in completely wastewater-free production. In addition, 90% of the sand used for casting can be recycled to reduce waste to a minimum.

Researchers contend that large-scale forest bioenergy is neither sustainable nor greenhouse-gas neutral

Green Car Congress

Depleted soil fertility requires fertilization that would increase GHG emissions, and deterioration of current biomass pools requires decades to centuries to be paid back by fossil fuel substitution, if paid back at all, they contend. Negative impacts on vegetation, soil fertility, water and ecosystem diversity are all possible.

Demonstration plant for small-scale offshore GTL on site at Petrobras refinery; production targeted for September

Green Car Congress

Small-scale GTL facilities based on the use of microchannel reactors and designed for use on offshore platforms have the potential to turn unwanted associated gas into an energy asset and halt wasteful flaring or expensive re-injection. Earlier post.) Earlier post.).
