PNNL team develops new low-cost method to convert captured CO2 to methane

Green Car Congress

Methane derived from CO 2 and renewable H 2 sources is an attractive fuel, and it has great potential as a renewable hydrogen carrier as an environmentally responsible carbon capture and utilization approach. The authors’ assessment identified further cost savings, in that CO 2 captured by EEMPA can be converted to methane on site.

8 Rivers announces 8RH2 CO2 Convective Reformer for ultra-low carbon hydrogen production from natural gas

Green Car Congress

8 Rivers Capital announced the development of the 8RH2 CO 2 Convective Reformer—a technology for the production of ultra-low carbon hydrogen from natural gas. It uses the oxy-combustion of carbon fuels and a high-pressure supercritical CO 2 working fluid in a highly recuperated cycle that captures all emissions by design.

Santos reports successful CO2 capture and storage injection trial in Moomba CCS project

Green Car Congress

Australia-based natural gas company Santos has successfully injected approximately 100 tonnes of carbon dioxide deep underground into depleted gas reservoirs as part of the final field trial for the Moomba Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) Project. —Kevin Gallagher.

GWU team suggests C2CNT carbon nanotube composites could amplify reduction of GHG emissions

Green Car Congress

Stuart Licht reports that the addition of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) produced from CO 2 by low-energy C2CNT (CO 2 to CNT) molten electrolysis ( earlier post ) to materials such as concrete or steel not only forms composites with significantly better properties, but amplifies the reduction of CO 2. A) Carbon mitigation with CNT-cement. (B)

GWU research team C2CNT advances to the final round of the Carbon XPRIZE; CO2 to carbon nanotubes

Green Car Congress

Stuart Licht, a chemistry professor at the George Washington University, and his team of researchers are among the finalists announced today in the $20-million Carbon XPRIZE competition. Stronger, more stress resistant & cheaper by weight than steel, C2CNT carbon nanotubes avoids > 160 ton CO 2 per ton steel replaced. Click to enlarge.

DOE announces $11.5M in Phase 1 funding for carbon capture and storage program; ARPA-E FLECCS

Green Car Congress

million in funding for 12 projects as part of Phase 1 of the Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy’s (ARPA-E’s) FLExible Carbon Capture and Storage (FLECCS) program. UNO MK3 allows CO 2 to be withdrawn and stored as solid potassium bicarbonate during high energy demand, eliminating stripper energy and enabling profitable regeneration.

How Shipping Carbon Dioxide Could Boost Carbon Capture

Cars That Think

Early in February, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries announced that they will build the world’s first ship for transporting carbon dioxide solely from carbon-capture facilities. Carbon capture is picking up steam around the world as heavy industries and power plants try to meet emissions-reductions targets.
