FortisBC, Suncor, Hazer to pilot methane pyrolysis for hydrogen production with graphite byproduct

Green Car Congress

Suncor Energy and Australia-based Hazer Group Limited will use Hazer’s innovative methane pyrolysis technology for the first time in North America to produce hydrogen from natural gas. If the pilot continues as a full commercial build out, the project would be expected to produce up to 2,500 tonnes of hydrogen per year.

Oxford team directly converts CO2 to jet fuel using iron-based catalysts

Green Car Congress

The catalyst shows a carbon dioxide conversion through hydrogenation to hydrocarbons in the aviation jet fuel range of 38.2%, with a yield of 17.2%, and a selectivity of 47.8%, and with an attendant low carbon monoxide (5.6%) and methane selectivity (10.4%). In brief, the Fe–Mn–K catalyst shows a CO 2 conversion of 38.2%

Twelve produces first batch of E-Jet fuel from CO2 electrolysis; partnership with USAF; electrifying fuel, not planes

Green Car Congress

Carbon transformation company Twelve (formerly Opus 12, earlier post ) has produced the first fossil-free jet fuel—called E-Jet—from CO 2 electrolysis, demonstrating a scalable, energy-efficient path to the de-fossilization of global aviation. Global aviation produces 1.2 —Twelve Co-Founder and CEO Nicholas Flanders.

U of I study: synthetic fuels via CO2 conversion and FT not currently economically & environmentally competitive

Green Car Congress

The WTG CO 2 emissions vary from 180% (nearly twice) to a reduction of 75% compared to that of the business as usual scenario without carbon sequestration. With the cost of carbon emissions being appropriately included, this electricity to synthetic fuel pathway will be even more economically competitive. Stubbins, and Paul J.
