Welcome to the February issue, taking our annual look at developments in the production and use (and, these days, sequestration) of carbon dioxide in markets across the world. It is a fascinating and dynamic time when it comes to CO2. The global decarbonisation drive as the world targets Net Zero has unleashed a wave of innovation in relation to finding applications for CO2, and in the past 12 months huge strides have been made.
The University of Nottingham in the UK is moving ahead with plans to build a hydrogen propulsion research lab, aimed at advancing zero-carbon transport technologies. Planning permission has now been granted for the facility, which...
President Trump’s proposed 25% tariffs on steel and aluminium imports into the US on top of existing duties would be a ‘devastating blow’ to the UK industry, according to the UK Steel Director General.
Leith Greenslade, Coordinator at the Every Breath Counts Coalition, introduces partnership and the work they do, on gasworld’s Medical Gases: Oxygen and Beyond webinar.
President Donald Trump has announced a new energy partnership with Japan that will see liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports from the $44bn Alaska LNG project.
The UK government has halved subsidies to Drax power station and hatched a new agreement whereby low carbon dispatchable power is only used ‘when it is really needed’.
Unlike in most beer production, where brewers have an obvious use for carbon dioxide (CO2) to carbonate their product, and therefore a clear business incentive for capturing the CO2 from the fermentation process for reuse,...
Aquaculture – farmed fish and shellfish, rather than wild-caught – is big business now, with global demand for fish protein increasing year on year. Projections show growth of 14% by 2030 versus 2020 levels.
Making protein from thin air – or at least from carbon dioxide from direct air capture – is the mission of Solar Foods. Anthony Wright reports on the company’s progress
Last year saw the world’s first commercial scale production of synthetic fuels. Christian Annesley considers the crucial need for CO2 to scale up this emerging market.
There’s a growing opportunity in carbon dioxide supplied from direct air capture. Christian Annesley talks to Matt Atwood of DAC company Aircapture about progress, and looks at the wider context for scaling up CO2 that’s...
