RepAir has unveiled its field prototype, demonstrating the technical performance of its direct air capture solution in an operational environment for the first time. The company is now at Technology Readiness Level 6, a significant step forward on the path to market viability.
As published in Nature Communications, a team at Bayreuth University have developed a process to convert impure CO2 from car exhaust into γ-lactams. This opens the way to the synthesis of valuable chemicals and pharmaceuticals, says Prof. Dr. Shoubik Das, Chair of Organic Chemistry I
Commonwealth LNG has signed a MoU with OnStream CO2 LLC, a JV between Carbonvert Inc. and Castex Carbon Solutions, LLC, for a carbon capture and storage solution at Commonwealth’s 9.3 million tonnes per annum LNG facility under development in Cameron, Louisiana.
Dow has announced that its board of directors has declared Final Investment Decision on the Company’s Fort Saskatchewan Path2Zero investment to build the world’s first net-zero Scope 1 and 2 emissions integrated ethylene cracker and derivatives facility in Alberta, Canada.
Aker Carbon Capture is to investigate fully integrating a standardized and modularized Just Catch unit into the e-fuel process at a waste-to-energy facility, potentially capturing 100,000 tonnes of CO2 per year, enabling the initial production of 20 megawatt of e-methane.
On November 27th, 2023, Ministers from five European countries signed the Aaborg Declaration, acknowledging the important role for cross-border carbon capture, utilisation and storage as Europe aims to progress its green transition and reach net-zero emissions by 2050.
Yara International, a leading global ammonia player, and Northern Lights, a CO2 transport and storage supplier, have signed a binding commercial agreement, enabling the first cross-border transportation and storage of carbon dioxide.
Materials selection is critical when storing CO2 as a supercritical liquid. Alleima can provide the types of corrosion-resistant alloys that can resist those environments and indeed the company is seeing a growing demand for such products, states Karan Jain.
“neustark’s mission is to store one million tonnes of CO2 by 2030 and then go on to reach much higher numbers. We are working with the biggest waste stream on Earth, demolition concrete, and are the first to roll out the technology to permanently store CO2 via mineralization.”
