In California, Circularity Fuels announced it has completed the world’s first end-to-end conversion of raw agricultural biogas into sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). Over a six-month pilot run on biogas drawn straight from a California dairy farm’s manure digester, Circularity produced drop-in jet fuel meeting ASTM D7566 Annex A1 specifications. The pilot puts commercial SAF within […]
In Washington, Ocean Visions recently launched its Seaweed-Based Products for Decarbonization road map, a first-of-its-kind digital resource designed to help guide the responsible development and scaling of seaweed based products that could reduce greenhouse gas emissions across multiple industries. Seaweed can play an important role in global decarbonization by replacing petroleum based ingredients in a […]
In South Carolina, U.S. Endowment for Forestry and Communities has launched a Request for Proposals (RFP) to assess the feasibility of repurposing closed wood products manufacturing facilities, including pulp and paper mills, for bioenergy.

In Japan, photocatalytic conversion of carbon dioxide to methane offers a promising route for carbon recycling, but its low efficiency and unclear mechanisms limit its practical use. Researchers at the Chiba University have now examined how light-driven and heat-driven processes work together in Ru–Ni–ZrO2 catalysts, achieving record methane production rates. This work clarifies the reaction […]
