An industry consortium comprised of leading steelmaker sare undertaking a pre-feasibility study to assess the development of Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage (CCUS) hubs across Asia. The CCUS Hub study is the first independent industry-led study of its kind in Asia and will examine the technical and commercial pathways to utilising CCUS in hard-to-abate industries across Asia.
Rice University researchers have developed an electrochemical reactor that has the potential to drastically reduce energy consumption for direct air capture (DAC), the removal of carbon dioxide directly from the atmosphere.
Utah State University’s Bingham Research Center has received a grant from the U.S. Department of Energy for a $480,000 project. The grant is part of a larger project called the Uinta-Piceance Basin Carbon Management and Community Engagement Partnership, which is led by the University of Utah.
British Steel is focused on transforming the manufacture of steel into a clean, green and sustainable business by embracing electric arc furnace technology. To support this, and the development of the required technology, a mobile carbon capture pilot plant has been installed at British Steel’s Central Power Station in Scunthorpe.
A new type of absorbing material developed by chemists at the University of California, Berkeley, could help get the world to negative emissions. The porous material — a covalent organic framework — captures CO2 from ambient air without degradation by water or other contaminants, one of the limitations of existing direct air capture (DAC) technologies.
