New polymer membrane efficiently removes carbon dioxide from mixed gases; high permeability and selectivity

Green Car Congress

A team of researchers from North Carolina State University, SINTEF in Norway and the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, has developed a polymer membrane technology that removes carbon dioxide from mixed gases with both high permeability and high selectivity. This is a vital part of the green transition in Norway.

Bosch study highlights potential of e-fuels to reduce CO2 emissions

Green Car Congress

gigatons of CO 2 : three times Germany’s carbon-dioxide emissions in 2016. If the climate targets set by the Paris conference are to be achieved, CO 2 emissions from traffic worldwide will have to be reduced 50% over the next four decades, and by at least 85% in the advanced economies, Bosch notes.

US and Japan successfully complete Arctic field trial of gas hydrate production technology using CO2-methane exchange within structure

Green Car Congress

The production technology was developed through laboratory collaboration between the University of Bergen, Norway, and ConocoPhillips. The team injected a mixture of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) and nitrogen into the formation, and demonstrated that this mixture could promote the production of natural gas. —Secretary Chu.
