Third generation tech is what Aemetis calls it – using renewable fuels for carbon capture & sequestration siphons carbon from the atmosphere into crops which are converted into renewable fuels, then the solar energy is released as transportation energy while the CO2 from biofuels production is injected underground. Find out all the latest about the […]
NREL is focusing on commodity products with sufficient market sizes to aid biofuels production (e.g., adipic acid), working with Lignin Util. & SepConfor lignin substrates, and developing innovative biocatalysts and bioprocesses for lignin valorization. Get all the latest on their progress and research outcomes so far on overcoming substrate and product toxicity, the hydroxylation bottleneck, […]
The Sustainable Energy in America Factbook is produced annually for the Business Council for Sustainable Energy by BloombergNEF and provides year-over-year data and insights on the American energy transformation and progress of energy efficiency, natural gas and renewable energy sectors. Here we’ve culled the key renewable energy pieces of the factbook on how 2021 was […]
There are synergies with carbon capture and biofuel processes. This ABLC slide guide from Dave Collings at 1898 & Co. looks at the challenges of biofuels, where and how much CO2 is being produced and sequestered, current carbon capturing methods and costs, where projects are happening, and more.
Bruce Dannenberg, CEO of Phytonix shared this illuminating slide guide at ABLC Connect highlighting how Phytonix utilizes cyanobacteria engineered via synthetic biology to produce 1-butanol and potentially other higher alcohols. And there’s a sister company, CyanoMega, producing a novel microalgae for the sustainable production for aquaculture, human and animal nutraceuticals, vegan food production and supplements, […]
Today we take a look at CO2 Utilization with Ryan Gilliam, CEO of Fortera. Fortera created a process that economically converts CO2 into a cement ready for use anywhere Ordinary Portland Cement is used. Concrete ranks as the most used human-made material on the planet each year. However, its production, which includes cement, comes with […]
Nannollose uses an eco-friendly fermentation process to grow microbial cellulose to make fibers that have the potential to become a sustainable alternative to conventional plant-derived cellulose fibers – and even better, they are commercializing this scalable tech. Get all the details including competitor analysis and more.
Producing low-cost hydrogen with negative CO2 footprint from minimally prepared waste or biomass is what Omni Conversion Technologies is all about. Take a look at this illuminating slide guide on how waste is the new frontier in clean energy, how their gasification and plasma refining system works, the carbon footprint of hydrogen production, commercial deployment, […]
Gevo continues to make progress on the design and engineering work related to its Net-Zero 1 Project. As a result of Gevo’s agreement and relationship with Axens, Gevo recently made the decision to utilize ethanol fermentation technology instead of isobutanol fermentation technology to produce SAF and other renewable hydrocarbon products at Net-Zero 1. Find out […]
A revenue increase of 28% for 2021 compared to 2020 is impressive for any company, even given the rebound from COVID-19 disruptions. But the secrets to Aemetis’ 2021 success were key milestones like acquiring 125-acre Riverbank Industrial Complex for a SAF and renewable diesel plant, signing $2.5 billion of off-take agreements with major airlines and […]
