The biomass cogeneration facility is claimed to be the first large–scale power generation plant to operate solely with well-pressed or dried fermentation residues. Once operational, the plant will supply at least 70,000 megawatt hours of steam to Sasol annually as well as produce more than 90,000 megawatt hours of sustainable electricity every year.

With an aim to establish a domestic lithium supply chain in North America for the electric vehicle market, Snow Lake Lithium has partnered with LG Energy Solution to build one of Canada’s first lithium hydroxide processing plants in Manitoba.

At this year’s Achema trade show which is claimed to be the world's leading trade show for the process industry, more than 2,200 exhibitors from over 50 countries along with 70,000 plus participants from 127 nations were present at the event which was held from August 22 – 26, 2022 in Frankfurt, Germany.

Gea introduced the intelligent software solution Gea Smart Filtration for membrane filtration plants at a recently held beverage and liquid food industry trade show. The software monitors the plant status remotely via app and makes use of cloud connectivity and real-time analytics to increase plant availability and performance. One of the company’s customers Seagarden, a supplier of fish-based ingredients in Norway, has also invested in a Gea membrane filtration plant that will be connected via app in the future.

Successful integration of green hydrogen into production networks – Compact electrolysis plants, powered by green electricity, could help to solve the issue of energy storage, providing power and raw materials available for a wide range of applications. But setting up a container plant is not enough: Sahll the decentralized H2 production become a success, it needs to be suitably integrated and connected. Is the energy transition a matter of plant planning and design?

On its path to becoming a climate-neutral company, OQ Chemicals is switching to electricity from renewable sources at its sites worldwide as part of its ‘reduce’ program.

Lanxess has introduced three new weak acid cation (WAC) resins along with two weak base anion exchange resins in its Lewatit product portfolio. The new WAC resins consist of renewable raw materials.

Until the pandemic, most people had never heard of mRNA vaccines. Today, they are widely expected to hold the key to curing life-threatening diseases such as cancer — unfortunately at a potentially prohibitive price.

Under a MOU, BASF and Sulzer Chemtech will work together to develop innovative sustainable technologies for the production of renewable fuels and chemically recycled plastics with an aim to reduce its carbon intensity.

Electrolysis is said to be particularly good at load control and can therefore respond flexibly to fluctuating energy flows. But it's not quite that simple: a pilot project is being launched in Japan to test flexible hydrogen production.
