SRI developing process for co-gasification of methane and coal to produce liquid transportation fuels; negligible water consumption, no CO2

Green Car Congress

Researchers from SRI International (SRI) are developing a methane-and-coal-to-liquids process that consumes negligible amounts of water and does not generate carbon dioxide. If biogas is substituted for conventional natural gas, total GHG emissions can further significantly reduced (190 gCO 2 /mile). Lifecycle GHG comparison.

Study finds that dry-feed gasification for coal-to-liquids is more efficient, lower-emitting and cheaper than slurry-feed; CCS cost-effective for reduction of CO2

Green Car Congress

Comparison of coal consumption and CO 2 emissions for co-production and separate production of liquids and power. Conventional CTL plant gasifies coal to produce a syngas which is then converted in a Fischer-Tropsch reactor to products. The liquids output capacity of CTL plants is 50,000 barrels/day.

Sasol and ITOCHU to partner on green ammonia and hydrogen

Green Car Congress

The MoU was signed during the Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD 8) in Tunisia, a forum to advance Japan-Africa sustainable development on the continent. Green ammonia is produced from green hydrogen, which in turn is produced from renewable electricity (solar and wind) via an electrolysis process.

This is particularly important for China, which has minimal natural gas capacity, a more flexible power source than slow-ramping coal plants. They also face difficulties in securing grid connections and selling electricity into China’s power markets based largely on long-term contracts.
