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. That’s why our partnership with SGH2 is so important.

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.

The world’s only coal-to-nuclear reactor plant just broke ground in Wyoming

Baua Electric

According to Gates, founder and chairman of TerraPower, Natrium will “be the most advanced nuclear facility in the world, and it will be much safer and produce far less waste than conventional reactors.” It’s being constructed near the retiring coal-fired Naughton power plant and is the world’s only coal-to-nuclear project under development.

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.
