Fusion Fuel Green partners with CCC to develop green hydrogen demonstrator plants in Middle East

Green Car Congress

CCC is a globally diversified company specializing in Engineering and Construction. Still in its infancy as a commercially viable fuel, hydrogen produced sustainably by using renewable energy to power the electrolysis of water can provide vast quantities of clean fuel. Many more will follow.

Penn State team develops more environmentally friendly method for separating bitumen or oil from sands using ionic liquids

Green Car Congress

The method is also capable of cleaning oil spills from beaches and separating oil from drill cuttings, the solid particles that must be removed from drilling fluids in oil and gas wells. The Penn State separation method uses very little energy and water, and all solvents are recycled and reused.

Obama Announces Steps to Boost Biofuels, Clean Coal; RFS2, BCAP, BIWG and Carbon Capture and Storage Task Force

Green Car Congress

It’s been said that the United States is the Saudi Arabia of coal—and that’s because, as I said, it’s one of our most abundant energy resources. Provide environmental quality monitoring and regulatory compliance to ensure compliance with regulatory statutes to assess the impact of the industry on air and water.

MIT engineers develop process that can treat produced water from gas wells at relatively low cost

Green Car Congress

A new desalination process developed by engineers at MIT could treat produced water—deep water, often heavily laden with salts and minerals—from natural gas wells at relatively low cost. The research is the work of a team including MIT postdoc Prakash Narayan, mechanical engineering professor John H.
