In North Carolina, Capstone Green Energy Holdings, Inc. completed the installation of its 6.6-megawatt combined heat and power (CHP) microturbine system at a landmark renewable energy facility in North Carolina. This waste-to-energy project marks a meaningful step forward in the customer’s operational strategy by monetizing swine waste through a proprietary pyrolysis process to produce renewable […]
In North Carolina, designer Gabriel Mejia-Estrella has created a working synthesizer made from cardboard and walnut. A recent graduate in Music Technology from University of North Carolina Asheville, Mejia-Estrella was inspired to create the unique synth because unlike elegant and often aesthetically pleasing instruments like guitars or pianos, traditional synths are largely unattractive, more akin […]
In North Carolina, Honda Aircraft Company has become the first twin-turbine very light business jet manufacturer to utilize the HondaJet on a successful test flight running a 100% blend of sustainable aviation fuels (SAF). A production-model HondaJet was fueled with a mix of Hydroprocessed Esters and Fatty Acids Synthetic Paraffinic Kerosene (HEFA-SPK) and Hydrodeoxygenated Synthetic […]
In North Carolina, Honeywell introduced a breakthrough technology that converts agricultural and forestry waste into ready-to-use renewable fuels for hard-to- abate sectors, such as the maritime industry. The technology produces lower-carbon marine fuel, gasoline and sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) from inexpensive and abundant biomass sources like wood chips and crop residues. Plant and agricultural waste […]
In North Carolina, ResourceWise says that as discussions continue about a possible delay to the European Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), many US producers may think a few extra months might sound like welcome breathing room—but the reality is more complex. Around the world, the forest products industry is undergoing a profound shift. Traditional markets—like pulp, paper, […]
In North Carolina, researchers at Cultivated Biomaterials have created jewelry from leather grown in the lab from cells sourced from Angel, the cow. They claim it is the world’s first lab-grown jewelry, which they have dubbed Angelry. Cultivated Biomaterials uses a tissue engineering approach inspired by MIT’s Prof. Robert Langer. “Our process stands apart by […]
In North Carolina, Honeywell, Johnson Matthey, GIDARA Energy and SAMSUNG E&A announced the formation of a strategic technology alliance to bring a groundbreaking end-to-end global solution to market for producing sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) from biomass and municipal solid waste. The alliance brings together a wealth of diverse expertise and capabilities to help customers streamline […]
In North Carolina, ABB and Charbone Hydrogen Corporation – an integrated green hydrogen production company based in Montreal, Canada – have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) agreement to collaborate on the development of up to 15 modular and scalable green hydrogen production facilities across North America over the next five years, providing a clean […]
In North Carolina, trees are the most abundant natural resource living on Earth’s land masses, and North Carolina State University scientists and engineers are making headway in finding ways to use them as sustainable, environmentally benign alternatives to producing industrial chemicals from petroleum. Lignin, a polymer that makes trees rigid and resistant to degradation, has […]
In North Carolina, Honeywell and SGP BioEnergy are working together to develop new, scalable technology to convert industrial hemp and other plant-based material into biochemicals that can be used to produce plastics and other everyday items, offering an alternative to chemicals produced from fossil fuels. As part of this collaboration, Honeywell will develop the new […]
