DOE launches Clean Fuels & Products Shot

Green Car Congress

The US Department of Energy (DOE) launched the Clean Fuels & Products Shot , a new initiative that aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) from carbon-based fuels and products significantly. Biomass and waste conversion technologies designed to use green electricity and hydrogen to maximize carbon retention in products.

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

Green Car Congress

8RH2-produced ammonia will provide a transportable low-carbon source of hydrogen, a low-cost and scalable solution to accelerate the global transition to net-zero. Clean Power: transformative zero-emissions power cycles. Ammonia can be easily ‘cracked’ back into hydrogen after reaching its end user.

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

Green Car Congress

We will need an approved methodology for CCS to be in place with the Clean Energy Regulator before we take a final investment decision on our Moomba CCS Project because carbon credits are essential to make it stack up economically with the cost of abatement still at around A$30 per tonne.

Fraunhofer ISI/ICCT analysis of PHEV data finds real-world CO2 emissions 2-4x higher than official values

Green Car Congress

The results of the joint study, released by German Fraunhofer Institute for Systems and Innovation Research ISI and the International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT), suggest that incentives to promote a higher share of electric driving would increase the potential for plug-in hybrid vehicles to reduce emissions.

GWU team develops cost-effective solar process to produce lime for cement without CO2 emission

Green Car Congress

and the remainder (30 to 40%) from burning fossil fuels, such as coal, to heat the kiln reactors to ~900°C.Here we show a new thermal chemistry, based on anomalies in oxide solubilites, to generate CaO, without CO2 emission, in a high throughput, cost effective, environment conducive to the formation of cement. The CO is produced.
