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. Raven can also easily process natural and renewable gases alone or combined with solid waste. 22 CCR § 66260.10 Definitions).

New ORNL non-precious metal catalyst shows promise as low-cost component for low-temperature exhaust aftertreatment

Green Car Congress

However, in addition to their high cost, PGM catalysts struggle with CO oxidation at low temperatures (<200 °C) due to inhibition by hydrocarbons in exhaust streams. As we make engines more efficient, less wasted heat exits the engine into the exhaust system where catalysts clean up the pollutant emissions.
