EU project HyFlexFuel converted sewage sludge and other biomasses into kerosene by hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL); SAF

Green Car Congress

For the future, it will be important to commercialize advanced biofuel conversion technologies, which utilize a broader and more sustainable feedstock base. Under these conditions, biomass is converted into a crude bio-oil, which is separated from the process water behind the reactor.

German power-to-gas facility opens green methanation plant; €28M STORE&GO project

Green Car Congress

While the current facility feeds pure hydrogen (“WindGas”) directly into the gas grid, the new methanation plant provides for the generation of “green” methane. In this second stage, hydrogen from regenerative energy sources is converted into methane (CH 4 ), i.e. synthetic natural gas, using CO 2 from a bio-ethanol plant.

Ultrafine jagged Pt nanowires extremely efficient ORR catalysts; 50x more power than current commercial catalyst

Green Car Congress

Platinum is used to catalyze the key oxygen reduction reaction in the fuel cell’s cathode, directly converting the chemical energy in hydrogen fuel into electricity, with water vapor as the byproduct. The research was supported by the Department of Energy and the National Science Foundation.

The Case for Nuclear Cargo Ships

Cars That Think

Hedging its bets, the industry is exploring ammonia, batteries, and hydrogen, among other options for powering ships. based TerraPower and London- and Italy-based Newcleo should be safer and simpler to operate than conventional reactors. Another plus for nuclear-propelled ships is easy access to an endless supply of cooling water.
