It may not be easy for Kermit, but green hydrogen announcements have been many lately. What about the different routes to get that lovely green hydrogen? From splitting water via excess green power (power-to-hydrogen), to stripping hydrogen out of renewable methane or out of DME, here’s a look at some of the latest hydrogen initiatives. […]
In the Netherlands and the United Kingdom, SHV Energy and KEW Technology’s joint venture called Circular Fuels Ltd. will develop renewable dimethyl ether production plants with the first one to be located in the United Kingdom with a production capacity of 50 kilotonnes of rDME per year from municipal solid waste. This strategic collaboration will […]
SHV Energy and UGI International are launching a joint venture to advance the production and use of Renewable Dimethyl Ether, rDME, a low-carbon sustainable liquid gas, to accelerate renewable solutions for the LPG industry and is aiming to develop the full potential of rDME as a sustainable solution. In today’s Digest, why this is a […]
In California, Oberon Fuels and SHV Energy are partnering to accelerate the use of renewable DME to reduce the carbon footprint of transportation fuel. For Oberon’s path to scale, the partnership will include funding to augment a recent $2.9M grant from the California Energy Commission grant to further develop DME fueling infrastructure and vehicle development. […]
In Germany, BASF and Sichuan Lutianhua Co., Ltd. signed a Memorandum of Understanding to co-develop a pilot production plant, that will significantly reduce carbon emissions and increase energy efficiency in producing dimethyl ether (DME) from syngas compared to the traditional process. DME is a methanol equivalent and can be used as an intermediate to produce […]
Wishes are coming true for some California bioenergy projects. Aemetis, Oberon Fuels and others will receive millions from the California Energy Commission for their bioenergy projects, from DME to advanced ethanol. As Walt Disney once said, “All our dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them.” One thing he forgot to […]
A generation ago, a group known as Run-D.M.C. came Straight Outta New York City with the idea that you could make it out of the underground world of hip-hop and to the world of mainstream music with chart-topping anthems that were true to their roots. After a partnership with Aerosmith resulted in the best version […]
Oberon Fuels is facilitating the growth of the DME transportation industry by converting biogas and other hydrocarbon rich waste streams to higher valued commodities such as DME. Using its proprietary small-scale process, Oberon makes DME and methanol from various methane and carbon dioxide sources. In 2013, Oberon Fuels’ pilot plant, in Brawley, California, produced the first fuel-grade DME in North America. This […]
