In South Korea, DS Dansuk will contribute land and facilities valued at 41.2 billion won to its subsidiary DS Orvion, consolidating its sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) development activities under the dedicated business unit. The assets form part of the company’s 166,581-square-meter Gunsan Net-Zero Complex project in North Jeolla Province, where SAF production facilities are planned. […]
In South Korea, Hapag-Lloyd has successfully completed its first SIMOPS bunkering of ISCC EU-certified biomethanol supplied by Goldwind to the Seaspan Amazon in Busan, South Korea. The operation marks an important step in bringing alternative marine fuels from production to practical use. Produced at Goldwind’s integrated facility in Hinggan League, China, the biomethanol was delivered […]
In South Korea, researchers from Chonnam National University, South Korea have found that the environmental impact of biodiesel varies dramatically depending on its feedstock and production pathway. Using a life-cycle assessment of five biodiesel feedstocks, the study published in Applied Energy, shows why climate emissions and air pollution both need to be considered when evaluating […]
In South Korea, K Shipbuilding and Lloyd’s Register (LR) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to jointly develop an ethanol-fuelled 50,000 dwt Medium Range (MR) tanker. The the joint development project will assess the technical feasibility, safety and regulatory compliance of a new ethanol-fuelled tanker design, with the objective of achieving Approval in Principle […]
In South Korea, GS Caltex will supply sustainable aviation fuel to the global logistics provider DHL Express, marking a further expansion of its SAF supply activities. Under the agreement, GS Caltex will supply SAF to aircraft operated by DHL Express that refuel in Korea over the next year. The total volume to be supplied to […]
In South Korea, researchers at World Institute of Kimchi have converted kimchi radish waste into a bioplastic. Specifically, the team used an E. coli bacteria with the ability to convert certain chemicals in kimchi-processing leftovers into a bioplastic. The research used advanced modeling to streamline the development of low-waste manufacturing processes. By integrating biological data […]
In South Korea, not all biodiesel is equally sustainable. Its environmental impact depends strongly on the feedstock used and the way it is produced. This creates a complex decision-making landscape for policymakers and stakeholders, necessitating comprehensive life-cycle assessments (LCAs) of different biodiesel pathways. Although previous LCAs have compared biodiesel pathways, most have focused primarily on […]
In South Korea, researchers from Korea have now developed an artificial intelligence (AI)-guided optimization framework that dramatically reduces the computational effort needed to optimize solid oxide electrolysis cell (SOEC) operation. By combining high-fidelity computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations with an AI-driven active learning framework, the researchers rapidly identified operating conditions that improve hydrogen production efficiency […]
In South Korea, DS Dansuk will establish a new corporation, DS Orbion, and speed up the construction of the SAF plant, which is a key task in the 2030 vision. 2020 days said. DSOrbion is a subsidiary of DS Dansuk and, is dedicated to the “Net-Zero Complex Project”, which is being promoted by Gunsan National […]
In South Korea, in partnership with the Saemangeum Development Agency, South East Korea will work with the Saemangeum Development Agency to create the first clean hydrogen complex in Korea that verifies the entire cycle from production to utilization by integrating solar power generation, hydroelectric green hydrogen production, and hydrogen electroplating power generation into a single […]
