Using a novel, reusable carbon material derived from old rubber tires, an Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL)-led research team has developed a simple method to convert used cooking oil into biofuel. The patent-pending, waste oil-to-biofuel conversion adds a new approach to waste tire recycling initiatives. Resources.

There is also increasing interest in using conductive carbon black additives for Li-ion batteries. Recovering carbon black from waste tires is a more environmentally friendly option for producing the material, and a number of companies provide carbon black recovery services.

Electrofuels approaches will use organisms able to extract energy from other sources, such as solar-derived electricity or hydrogen or earth-abundant metal ions. The project also includes a proprietary process to convert waste biomass into carbon dioxide and hydrogen to feed the bioreactor, allowing butanol production from waste feedstocks.

Conventional large-scale gasto-liquid reactors produce waste-heat, reducing the energy. remote oil wells burn natural gas as a by-product because it is not. Capturing this energy would reduce both waste. areas to convert otherwise wasted gas into usable chemicals that. Capturing this energy would reduce both waste.
