Claimed to be the first of its kind, the Catalina Project is expected to combine 1.5 GW of wind and solar energy to power a 500-MW electrolyzer for producing green hydrogen. Wood will lead as a technical authority for the project and will be in charge of technology selection, preliminary studies, front end engineering and design and EPC tendering support.

It dyes jeans blue, is found in PUR foam and rocket fuel and is extracted from naphtha on a scale of millions of tons: Aniline. The versatile basic chemical is set to turn green thanks to bioprocess engineering - a project in Leverkusen shows how straw can be turned into plastic

Expensive, unsuitable and not marketable: Hydrogen is scrutinized. The promised miracle substance of defossilization is said to be a waste of energy and not half as environmentally friendly as hoped. What's the truth about hydrogen myths? Time to take a closer look.

Under binding agreements signed between Siegfried and Curia Global, Siegfried will acquire a CDMO specialized in early-phase development and manufacturing services in Grafton, Wisconsin. The new CDMO site is expected to strengthen Siegfried’s customer offering for Drug Substances.

Organosulfur skeletons are crucial in many fields, including pharmaceuticals and electronics. Synthesizing organosulfur skeletons requires o-bromobenzenethiols. However, conventional methods face challenges due to quick oxidation and formation of highly reactive intermediates. In a new study, researchers from Japan developed a new method for synthesizing o-bromobenzenethiols from aryne intermediates via bromothiolation. This method can pave the way for the synthesis of new organosulfur compounds with applications in diverse fields.

Encina and BASF have entered into a long-term supply agreement for chemically recycled circular benzene derived from post-consumer end-of-life plastics. BASF will use the chemically recycled benzene for its broad Ccycled product portfolio.

Transform Materials has partnered with Johnson Matthey to develop a solution that emits fewer carbon emissions when compared to traditional coal-based processes to produce vinyl chloride monomer for PVC production.

The Marchesini Group is all set to celebrate its 50th anniversary this year. The company has also introduced a new logo for the occasion which portrays the Group’s aim for infinity and an extraordinary future.

Yara Growth Ventures has successfully invested in Dynelectro, a firm that develops electrolysis technologies for low-cost renewable hydrogen. The move is in line with Yara’s goal of decarbonizing its fertilizer production and enabling the hydrogen economy.

Under a MOU signed between Enerflex and BASF, both the firms will work together to facilitate the commercial scale deployment of carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) applications. For this, the parties will combine Enerflex’s expertise in engineering, manufacturing, and integration of gas processing and compression systems with BASF’s proprietary Oase blue technology for flue gas and post-combustion CO2 capture.
