In Denmark, chemists at the University of Copenhagen have developed a method to convert plastic waste into a climate solution for efficient and sustainable CO2 capture. This is killing two birds with one stone as they address two of the world’s biggest challenges: plastic pollution and the climate crisis. With the new chemical technology, researchers […]
In Wisconsin, Senator Mary Felzkowski (R-Tomahawk) and Representative Chanz Green (R- Grand View), along with industry leaders, local officials, and investors, have introduced legislation to support Wisconsin’s forestry industry and the broader Northwoods economy. The Forestry Revitalization Act will invest in a new facility located in Hayward, WI to turn woody biomass into sustainable aviation fuel. To […]
In the Netherlands, The Telegraaf newspaper reports BP is pulling the plug on its plans for a biofuels plant in the Europoort in Rotterdam. The staff reacted. “This was the last green project in the Netherlands we had.” In the procedure, about a hundred jobs reportedly disappear. BP has one of the largest refineries in […]
In Colorado, Gevo, Inc.’s subsidiary, Net-Zero Richardton, LLC, has signed a Carbon Dioxide Removal Sales Agreement with Biorecro North America, LLC for the commercialization of carbon dioxide removal credits generated at the Gevo North Dakota facility. This Agreement is for voluntary credits and is expected to generate approximately $26 million in revenues for Gevo over […]
In Canada, Global Container Terminals (GCT) says GCT Deltaport — Canada’s flagship container terminal—has now fully transitioned to 100% renewable fuel for diesel equipment, marking a major step forward in the company’s decarbonization journey. This achievement was made possible through a strong partnership with Tsawwassen First Nation (TFN) and long-time fuel supplier Parkland Corporation, and it reflects a shared commitment […]
In Kazakhstan, a Framework Agreement was signed between KazMunayGas and LanzaJet formally endorsing the results of the Feasibility Study and marks the launch of a new project phase — Front-End Engineering Design (FEED), during which all technical and economic solutions for the construction of the plant will be developed. Previous market analysis indicates that by […]
In the UK, the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 Team successfully uses a bio-based resin on the rear brake duct wheel shields of the #63 W16 – which crossed the line in second place at the Baku City Circuit – following efforts to qualify and apply sustainable carbon fiber composites. This groundbreaking development sees sustainable carbon fiber […]
In Singapore, Mol announced the successful completion of biodiesel-blended marine fuel (biofuel) bunkering in Singapore on September 14 on the MOL-owned capsize bulk carrier, Lambert Maru, which serves global mining company, Anglo American. Lambert Maru‘s voyage is now underway, powered by biofuel. This voyage represents an advanced case of utilizing the MOL Group’s carbon inset […]
In Switzerland, Sulzer is collaborating with TripleW to launch the world’s first PLA (polylactic acid) bioplastic made entirely from food waste. With TripleW valorizing the food waste streams, Sulzer’s technology transforms the lactic acid into PLA bioplastic at scale, enabling the transition from an innovative pilot project to full industrial production. Supported by the CIRCLE […]
In South Korea, Seoul National University College of Engineering announced that a joint research team has become the first in the world to elucidate the reconstruction mechanism of copper alloy catalysts during electrochemical CO₂ conversion reactions. The research sheds light on atomic rearrangements in catalyst surface structures during reaction and presents a methodology for predicting […]
