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

Green Car Congress

The only by-products are liquid water and a stream of high-purity, pipeline-ready CO 2. The ultra-low carbon hydrogen then can be turned into ultra-low carbon ammonia, which in turn can be used for decarbonized fertilizer, zero-carbon maritime fuels, and as a zero-carbon feedstock fuel to replace coal in existing power infrastructure.

DOE awards $7M to eight oxy-combustion coal technology projects; carbon capture, utilization and storage

Green Car Congress

The US Department of Energy (DOE) selected eight projects to advance the development of transformational oxy-combustion technologies capable of high-efficiency, low-cost carbon dioxide capture from coal-fired power plants. DOE Investment: $1,000,000; Recipient Cost-Share: $226,000. Babcock & Wilcox Power Generation Group.

DOE to award up to $15M for projects to improve reliability of solid oxide fuel cells

Green Car Congress

The purpose of the FOA is to advance the reliability, robustness and endurance of low-cost solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) technology suitable for ultimate deployment in equal to or greater than (?) 97% carbon dioxide (CO2) capture. CCRP has recently established new goals for coal power with carbon capture.

DOE Soliciting Advanced H2-CO2 Membrane Separations Projects for Up to $20M in Funding

Green Car Congress

The focus of the effort is on hydrogen separations technology, including advanced separation membranes (inorganic, metallic and both materials), that provide high purity hydrogen and/or offer a combination of hydrogen separation with low-cost removal of CO 2 and other trace impurities from hydrogen-CO 2 mixtures.

GWU team demonstrates one-pot process for optimized synthesis of controlled CNTs from CO2; coupling cement and C2CNT

Green Car Congress

Stuart Licht ( earlier post ) have developed a new process that transforms CO 2 into a controlled selection of nanotubes (CNTs) via molten electrolysis; they call the process C2CNT (CO2 into carbon nanotubes). This synthesis consumes only CO 2 and electricity, and is constrained only by the cost of electricity.
