Raven SR & Hyzon Motors to build up to 100 waste-to-hydrogen hubs

Green Car Congress

At the hubs, which can be built at or near landfills, Raven SR will convert mixed and multiple organic wastes, including municipal solid waste, greenwaste, food waste, medical, paper, etc. This permits the control of the rotary reformer when there is water content or chemical makeup variation in the feedstock, such as in MSW.

UK to award £54M to 15 projects developing innovative carbon removal technology

Green Car Congress

The UK government is awarding £54 million to 15 projects to develop technologies that remove carbon emissions from the atmosphere. The carbon dioxide can then be permanently stored or used in various products or applications. The biochar is rich in carbon and can be used as a fertilizer. Cambridge Carbon Capture Ltd.,

Biofuels- paving the way for low carbon future in mobility – ET Auto

Baua Electric

Given the biogenic carbon capture of crops, Ethanol as a fuel has a much lower environmental impact than the traditional fossil fuels. The emissions further drop to ~70% if we consider 2G ethanol which is produced using farm waste. India has already started setting up 2G plants, which use crop waste for ethanol production.

Simple process transforms PET plastic into a nanomaterial for supercapacitors

Green Car Congress

UC Riverside (UCR) engineers have developed a way to recycle PET (polyethylene terephthalate) plastic waste, such as soda or water bottles, into a nanomaterial useful for energy storage. Then, using an electrospinning process, they fabricated microscopic fibers from the polymer and carbonized the plastic threads in a furnace.

HyMethShip seeks to fuel ship engines with hydrogen from methanol

Green Car Congress

The remaining carbon dioxide is stored in the tank and reused in onshore methanol production. According to the European Environment Agency (EEA), maritime transport is responsible for more than 3% of the total carbon emissions in the European Union. The researchers at Fraunhofer developed a ceramic membrane coated with carbon.
