"Biochar is typically made through a process called pyrolysis where organic material is heated to a high temperature in a low-oxygen environment, creating a high-carbon material. Biochar was used historically to enrich soil, making it more fertile for crops."
Deep sea mining can provide crucial substances that are needed for a modern, green economy.
"With that funding, Solarcycle expects to expand its capacity to recycle 1 million solar panels annually by the close of this year. A 'vertically integrated, advanced recycling factory' will follow in 2024, expanding capacity to 'millions of panels.'"
"The power station is a joint venture between Sembcorp and 8 Rivers Capital, which invented the Allam-Fetvedt Cycle. The process, which has so far only been demonstrated at Net Power’s test facility in La Porte, Texas, burns 4% natural gas and 4% oxygen in a combustor alongside CO2. The combustion process results in 925ºC, 300bar CO2, which is fed through a turboexpander to generate power."
"According to the International Energy Agency, coal is responsible for most global CO2 emissions. With this information, Beauchamp gives the framework on how sour gas can quickly help decarbonization targets. 'Across the world, 40% of the world's reserves are sour; 20% are so sour that prior to TarT, they were technically and economically irrecoverable,' said Beauchamp. “These reserves could not be processed with conventional technology."
"Cummins is folding its existing clean power products unit into Accelera after pouring $900 million into R&D and acquisitions, including the recent purchase of truck parts maker Meritor, to build up the business. Cummins CEO and president Jennifer Rumsey wants rapid growth for the unit driven by demand for non-polluting trucks—and generous new federal incentives for low- and no-carbon hydrogen production."
Heirloom Carbon operates America’s only operational Direct Air Capture facility and is unleashing the world’s first carbon-trapping concrete
"The Rochester lab found that 'reddmatter' could exist at 69 degrees Fahrenheit and 145,000 pounds per square inch, or psi, of pressure—about 1/360th of the pressure in Earth’s core. That is about a 10-degree Fahrenheit increase in temperature and a drop to about 1/1000th of pressure compared with its predecessor from 2020."
"Aside from installing solar arrays onto its facility, Block-Lite produces masonry products the traditional way today, emitting a ton of carbon dioxide via the curing process. Through the award, however, Block-Lite told TechCrunch that it will eventually start selling 'ultra-low carbon blocks to customers in Flagstaff and surrounding areas.'"
Enginuity’s work is yet another testament to the innovation of the private sector in solving our greatest energy and environmental challenges.
