Startup licenses ORNL technology for converting organic waste to hydrogen

Green Car Congress

The technologies work as a system that converts organic waste into renewable hydrogen gas for use as a biofuel. The system combines biology and electrochemistry to degrade organic waste—such as plant biomass or food waste—to produce hydrogen. —Alex Lewis, CEO.

DOE researchers investigate economic and environmental impacts of converting wet waste to renewable diesel

Green Car Congress

estimated that with conversion by hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) and upgrading, the wet waste resource availability in the United States could be converted to jet fuel that is equivalent to about 24% of the U.S. The life-cycle greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of the two pathways were 11.2 Skaggs et al. demand in 2016.

Japan launches first global hydrogen supply chain demo project; liquid organic hydrogen carrier (LOHC) technology

Green Car Congress

Hydrogen gas will then be extracted from the liquid in Kawasaki and supplied to consumers. In the supply country, hydrogen, chemically fixed to toluene, is converted by a hydrogenation reaction into methylcyclohexane (MCH), a liquid at ambient temperature and pressure, for storage and transport.
