What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas, but what happens in Nevada occasionally rocks the world. Nevada, Iowa, that is. Sure enough, news arrives from Nevada that Frontline BioEnergy announced has achieved a breakthrough in syngas quality for biomass gasification at its new pilot facility located in Nevada, Iowa. Nevada is, if you will, to the […]
In France, as part of the “Grand Canal du Havre” call for projects, through the conclusion of state titles, HAROPA PORT has awarded ENGIE 24 ha of land for the development of a benchmark platform for alternative new industrial fuels embodied by the Salamandre and France KerEAUzen projects. This award is an essential step in […]
In Italy, Nextchem, after having completed the methanation advanced basic engineering study announced in July 2022 for the Salamandre project in the Normandy region, has been awarded a new contract by Storengy to carry out a further advanced basic engineering study for the gasification of the waste wood and the purification system of the syngas […]
In India, Outlook India reports that researchers from the Indian Institute of Technology Madras have used a machine learning method called Recurrent Neural Networks to study how biomass behaves in a gasification reactor to become syngas. The study predicts the composition of the syngas based on the time the feedstock spends inside the reactor, a […]
Taking on the global plastic waste issue is not easy, but NexantECA is up for it and tackling it with thermal plastic waste conversion technologies. The production of feedstocks for olefins gives value to “unrecyclable” plastics and the production of methanol and naphtha creates the potential for a circular economy. Dive into the details of […]
At ABLC Digital, Michael Bakas, Executive Vice President of Distributed Energy Systems at Ameresco shared these illuminating slide guides about their advanced renewable energy and tech portfolio including their design, build, operation and maintenance of the largest wastewater treatment biogas-to-renewable natural gas facility of its kind in the United States. Get the details on the Arizona […]
In the UK, EQTEC announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding with German EPC company, ewerGy GmbH, covering the key terms of the proposed cooperation for the engineering design and installation of the first advanced gasification plant in Greece. ewerGy will operate in Greece via its local partner, Eco Hellas SA, together with Greece […]
The U.S. Army has a FHL installation and there is an FTL demo, but did you know Sierra Energy has an online gasification calculator tool that you can use too? Check out this Slide-Guide from Sierra Energy’s VP of Engineering, Daniel Dodd where he shares how they have overcome the limitations of conventional gasification with […]
In the Netherlands, Taronis Technologies announced the launch of its first European MagneGas production site as part of Taronis Fuels, as wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The location is a 4.3 square kilometer location within a renewable energy and technology industrial park in Westpoort, Amsterdam. The executed lease provides Taronis the option to lease the […]
In Finland, the production of biofuel by gasification of biomass residues was successfully validated in the EU’s COMSYN project. The process performance was verified with bark in an 80 hour-long test run at VTT. The syngas conversion to Fischer-Tropsch (FT) products was conducted by IneraTec GmbH. The main focus of the test was to study […]
