In this project, researchers aim to establish a mechanistic pathway and characterize vs potential and pH, and demonstrate direct conversion of flue gas at high faradaic efficiency and current density. They also aim to demonstrate that the integrated flue gas feed with an optimized flow cell reactor can achieve performance and stability targets for commercial viability, […]
The opening session of ABLC events is the State of the Industry and our initial Networking event. Here are the slides from the presentation by Digest editor & publisher Jim Lane on the evening of October 26th covering advanced ethanol. renewable diesel, SAF, renewable chemicals, biomaterials, hydrogen, feedstocks and supply chain, vegan foods, finance and […]
In this project, researchers are designing and developing tailored dual-function materials (DFMs) and the accompanying pressure-swing process for reactive capture and conversion (RCC) of CO2to directly produce methanol. This will favor lower capital and operating expenses and offer compatibility with a dynamic energy grid to provide favorable process economics. Daniel Ruddy of the National Renewable Energy Laboratory presented […]
In The Netherlands, biofuels provider GoodFuels announced the results of a new partnership with global certification organization Control Union and France’s IDS Group to test the effectiveness of a unique isotopic tracer for biofuels. A successful pilot, conducted during a recent delivery of 500 tons of biofuel to the Norden-owned tanker Nord Gardenia, has proven […]
Here are the 50 Hottest Project Development & Deployment Spots in the Advanced Bioeconomy for 2022, as selected by the Digest’s editors.
This Project aims to advance the Technical Readiness Level through experimental and modeling to enhance the efficiencies while assessing the TEA/LCA of a dual functional catalytic porous polymer for simultaneous capture and conversion of CO2to value added chemicals (formic acid initially) under natural gas combined cycle (NGCC) application Michell Kidder of Oak Ridge National Laboratory […]
The objective of this project is to develop an electrochemically-driven CO2 separator (EDCS) with 155 kg/m2yr air capture at <5.4 GJ/t (1.5 MWh/t), to characterize PAP ionomer properties to support future Development, and to demonstrate EDCS module with 200 g/day removal and >0.4 CO2 captured per electron. Brian P. Setzler and Yushan Yan of the […]
As the Advanced Bioeconomy Leadership Conference opened in San Francisco, news arrived on the conference floor that Ara Partners has committed $65M in additional capital to BioVeritas to support rapid commercialization of the company’s bio-based ingredient solutions technology. Let’s take a deeper look at BioVeritas, which has been operating in a stealthy mode in Bryan, […]
This Project aims to build and operate a 30 TPD CCC Pilot located at Sugar Creek Cement Plant near Kansas City, Missouri with a skid-based design that can be built mostly off-site with limited integration. The project features Low energy and cost retrofit technology, easy retrofit carbon capture technology, iobust to pollutants and captures most […]
