The Renewable Materials Conference Hits the Mark Again
440 participants discussed the defossilisation of the chemical and materials industry through biomass, CO2 and recycling. The audience voted for the "Renewable Material of the Year 2024": Acetic acid from CO2 by Danish start-up Again wins 1st price
Erneut ein Volltreffer: Die Renewable Materials Conference
440 Teilnehmer diskutierten über die Defossilisierung der Chemie- und Werkstoffindustrie durch Biomasse, CO2 und Recycling. Das Publikum wählte außerdem den Gewinner des Preises "Renewable Material of the Year 2024": Essigsäure aus CO2 des dänischen Start-ups Again
IFPEN and ResiCare, leaders in the development of a production process for the non-toxic* biobased molecule 5-HMF
Following ten years of laboratory research on the conversion of fructose into a biosourced molecule, 5-HMF, IFPEN joined forces with ResiCare in 2021 to develop a process for producing 5-HMF on an industrial scale
thyssenkrupp Uhde and Johnson Matthey join forces to offer an integrated solution for blue ammonia technology
In the drive to reduce CO2 emissions, the role of ammonia has expanded from a vital ingredient used to produce fertilizer for the agricultural sector, to a decarbonized carrier and supplier of hydrogen energy that’s easier to store and transport than pure hydrogen
Introduction of the new “OK renewable carbon” certificate: Award ceremony for the first products Online survey on consumer perception of cleaning products made from CO₂ by the European project WaterProof
The WaterProof project partner „Institute for Future Energy and Material Flow Systems (IZES) gGmbH“ developed a concise online survey to analyse the public perception of cleaning products using carbon emissions from waste and wastewater treatment plants
Nanoparticle catalysts convert carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide to make useful compounds
Researchers from the University of Illinois studied the catalytic activity of cheaper nanoparticle catalysts to determine if the lower-cost catalyst could enhance activity levels of β-Mo2C with a silica oxide support in the RWGS reaction
The Netherlands, France, the Czech Republic and Ireland call for a European policy package on sustainable carbon in the chemical industry
Vivianne Heijnen, Minister for the Environment of the Netherlands, handed over a joint statement to Wopke Hoekstra, European Commissioner for Climate Action, in Brussels
Can Greener CO2-derived Chemicals Accelerate CCUS Uptake?
If captured carbon can be utilized to make profitable chemical products, this revenue stream can provide an economic incentive to accelerate the uptake of CCUS (carbon capture, utilization, and storage) technologies until legislation that promotes CO2 storage emerges
