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

Green Car Congress

The EU-funded research project HyFlexFuel recently successfully produced biocrudes via hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) from a variety of biomasses, including sewage sludge, food waste, manure, wheat straw, corn stover, pine sawdust, miscanthus and microalgae in a pilot-scale continuous HTL plant at Aarhus University (Denmark).

Haldor Topsoe joins ambitious hydrogen and sustainable fuel project in Denmark

Green Car Congress

Topsoe will contribute with know-how about technologies that convert captured CO 2 into sustainable methanol and jet fuel using hydrogen from electrolysis of water. Apart from a triple-digit million investment from the companies within the project, the partners have applied for substantial funding from Innovation Fund Denmark.

Arcadia eFuels selects Topsoe and Sasol G2L technology for the first commercial eFuels-for-aviation plant in Denmark

Green Car Congress

The technology support for Arcadia marks the first single-point license between Topsoe and Sasol, whereby the two companies will deliver their proprietary technology (G2L), converting CO 2 and H 2 into eFuel for aviation. In eFuels plants, the feedstock is carbon dioxide, water, and power.

Topsoe enters agreement with Steeper Energy to introduce complete waste-to-biofuel solution

Green Car Congress

Simplified Hydrofaction Process Hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) applies supercritical water as a reaction medium for the conversion of biomass directly into a high-energy density renewable biocrude oil. The inherent low oxygen content of Hydrofaction Oil supports less secondary upgrading to convert the biocrude oil into finished fuels.

Anaergia to supply CO2 to European Energy A/S for green e-methanol production as fuel for container ships

Green Car Congress

Anaergia will provide the liquified CO 2 from the anaerobic digesters that will operate at its plant being built in Tønder, Denmark. The benefit for us is the ability to sell the biogenic CO 2 from our plants that is produced when we convert organic materials to methane and CO 2. —Andrew Benedek, Chairman and CEO of Anaergia.

New nickel-gallium catalyst could lead to low-cost, clean production of methanol; small-scale, low-pressure devices

Green Car Congress

Scientists from Stanford University, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and the Technical University of Denmark have identified a new nickel-gallium catalyst that converts hydrogen and carbon dioxide into methanol at ambient pressure and with fewer side-products than the conventional catalyst.
