SGH2 building largest green hydrogen production facility in California; gasification of waste into H2

Green Car Congress

The plant will feature SGH2’s technology, which will gasify recycled mixed paper waste to produce green hydrogen that reduces carbon emissions by two to three times more than green hydrogen produced using electrolysis and renewable energy, and is five to seven times cheaper. The facility will process 42,000 tons of recycled waste annually.

DOE to award up to $19M to advance waste carbon utilization for algal biofuels and bioproducts

Green Car Congress

Capturing this waste carbon then allows for algae to be cultivated into a variety of biofuels and bioproducts. Potential streams to be considered may include emissions from cement manufacturing, natural gas facilities, iron and steel production, and solid fuel (coal-fired or biomass) power plants.

Carbon Recycling International and Johnson Matthey collaborate on sustainable methanol

Green Car Congress

Conventional methanol production involves fossil feedstocks such as natural gas or coal. This can be recovered from either industrial processes or biomass, such as waste and residues, or atmospheric sources. Hydrogen can also be processed from by-product hydrogen available in some industrial waste streams.

Air France KLM signs 210M gallon SAF offtake agreement with DG Fuels

Green Car Congress

DGF replaces the coal gasification used by others with biomass gasification and natural gas reforming. DGF’s patented system design is expected to have a carbon intensity (CI) score of -39 grams per megajoule—140% lower than conventional Jet A.

ArcelorMittal inaugurates €200M Steelanol carbon capture and utilization project at Ghent plant

Green Car Congress

The €35-million Torero project is designed to process sustainable biomass (initially in the form of waste wood that cannot be used in other applications) for use as a raw material input into the blast furnace, hence lowering the volume of fossil coal used.

UK to award £54M to 15 projects developing innovative carbon removal technology

Green Car Congress

The money will help projects further develop their greenhouse gas removal technologies, which include a machine that can pull carbon dioxide out of the air, a plant to convert household waste into hydrogen for use in the transport industry, and a system to remove carbon dioxide from seawater. Biohydrogen Greenhouse Gas Removal Demonstration”.

Researchers report high thermoelectric performance for indium-doped tin telluride; waste heat recovery applications

Green Car Congress

From an environmental perspective, they note in their paper published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences , lead-free SnTe would be preferable for solid-state waste heat recovery if its thermoelectric figure-of-merit could be brought close to that of the lead-containing chalcogenides.
