Svante Secures Commercial Supply of MOF Advanced Sorbent Materials with BASF for Carbon Capture Market
Leading carbon capture and removal solutions provider, Svante Technologies Inc. (Svante), has developed a commercial supply agreement with the world’s largest chemical producer, BASF, to scale up its novel metal-organic framework (MOF) nanomaterial, CALF-20, for the purpose of its carbon capture filter technology
The Green Energy Transition Must Happen Roughly Three Times Faster than Previous Fuel Transitions to Maintain a Livable Planet
New publication titled 'The Energy Transition Blueprint' by Boston Consulting Group shows that Investing in Low-Carbon Energy Can Improve Energy Sustainability, Affordability, and Security
Carbon Capture and Utilisation (CCU) should be recognised as a strategic net zero technology in the EU Net Zero Industry Act
CCU technologies will enable the supply of renewable fuels and other alternative sources of energy, as well as commercial products such as plastics, concrete, and reactants for chemical synthesis
Public perception of CO2 capture and storage
Surveys show that public opinion about technologies for capturing and storing CO2 in Germany remains divided. Respondents are concerned that the focus on CCS can weaken climate policy, and they have doubts about the process’s safety. Appropriate measures can help to overcome these concerns, according to Danny Otto of the Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research – UFZ
Die gesellschaftliche Wahrnehmung von CO2-Abscheidung und -Speicherung
Laut Umfragen bleibt die öffentliche Meinung über die Technologien zur Abscheidung und Speicherung von CO2 in Deutschland gespalten. Die Befragten haben Bedenken, dass der Fokus auf CCS die Klimapolitik schwächen kann, und zweifeln an der Sicherheit des Verfahrens. Entsprechende Maßnahmen können helfen diese Bedenken zu überwinden, sagt Danny Otto vom Helmholtz-Zentrum für Umweltforschung - UFZ
