Hyundai is going all in on hydrogen, and relying on food waste to make that happen

Baua Electric

But now it says it will rely heavily on hydrogen fuel cells generated from plastic, food, and organic waste to power a whole new generation of EVs, from passenger cars to heavy-duty trucks. Rather than plugging in the vehicle as you would for a battery-electric car, hydrogen fuel cells rely on compressed hydrogen.

Blue World Technologies takes 15% stake in Danish Power Systems; methanol fuel cell vehicles

Green Car Congress

A closed thermal integration enables reuse of fuel cell waste heat for fuel evaporation thereby increasing efficiency. The HT PEM-technology operates at 160-180 °C and has a high resistance to impurities in reformat gas which makes it suitable to combine with fuel reformers. CO 2 + 3 H 2.

Audi to introduce natural gas A3 Sportback g-tron at year’s end; CO2-neutral e-gas

Green Car Congress

Audi will introduce the compact A3 Sportback g-tron—which can be powered by the CO 2 -neutral Audi e-gas, synthetic methane generated from eco-electricity in the Audi e-gas project ( earlier post )—at the end of the year. The e-gas fuel will be produced in the power-to-gas plant in Werlte, Germany.

JBEI researchers develop “bionic” liquids: ionic liquids derived from lignin and hemicelullose; towards closed-loop biorefineries

Green Car Congress

To date, the best performing ILs are derived from nonrenewable sources such as petroleum or natural gas. The ionic liquids that have emerged from this JBEI effort as a benchmark for biomass processing are imidazolium-based molten salts, which are made from nonrenewable sources such as petroleum or natural gas. —Socha et al.
