By pairing innovative new technology, such as AI-based material sortation, with millenia-old processes such as creating charcoal, our organic waste can now power domestic supply chains and mitigate the impact of waste management practices on local communities, write Matanya Horowitz, our founder and CTO, and Joe Benedetto, president of RDS of Virginia LLC, for The Virginian-Pilot. https://lnkd.in/gVYtZf4j

The University of Kentucky's James B. Beam Institute and UK Center for Applied Energy Research are collaborating with the Kentucky Energy and Environment Cabinet to demonstrate hydrogen-fueled spirit production. The project, titled "Kentucky Distilled Spirits Industrial Decarbonization and Sustainability," aims to reduce natural gas usage in distillery processes.

In part two of this three-part series, our Co-Founder and Co-CEO, Jack (Tato) Bigio, sat with Environment+Energy Leader and discussed how by using food waste instead of fossil fuels as a material feedstock, UBQ Materials is removing and avoiding carbon emissions, reducing source depletion, and improving the carbon footprint of everyday products. In his own words, "UBQ doesn’t compete with the system, but complements it."    Read more:  https://lnkd.in/eXrH_dSz 

Anglian Water Services triple carbon reduction demonstration plant at its water recycling center in Cambridge, UK. This plant is designed to shrink the carbon footprint of wastewater treatment by reducing energy consumption, cutting greenhouse gas emissions, and providing a source of green hydrogen. In addition to using OxyMem™ MABR modules from DuPont to reduce wastewater treatment energy requirements, the project hopes to validate that bubble-less MABR can almost eliminate harmful N2O emissions and explore whether adding oxygen (captured as a byproduct from the hydrogen-producing electrolyzers) to the membranes can further increase biological treatment capacity.

The secret ingredient grows in our gardens: lavender. By combining lavender oil with sulfur, Dr. Paolo Giusto's team has created a unique material that solves a persistent failure problem – polysulfide shuttling. This research marks an important step toward developing more powerful and sustainable batteries for the next-generation large-scale energy storage systems.

No matter what you think about carbon credits and their usefulness for Scope 3 reductions, it is unfortunate that there now is uncertainty if the potential change to SBTi standards are motivated by other drivers than science. Let's keep the Science in Science Based Targets. Whether convenient or not, it is important. You can learn about Slow 's, and other's, take on this in today's Børsen ☕

I was at the Decarb Connect conference last week, connecting with leaders focused on reducing industrial emissions and lowering embodied carbon in our economy. The event highlighted both the innovative steps being taken and the significant challenges that remain. My main takeaways: Policy Certainty is Essential: Clear, stable carbon pricing and policies are critical for unlocking investment in decarbonization projects. Right now, the lack of policy certainty is delaying investment decisions that industries are otherwise ready to make. CCS is Vital but Not a First Resort: CCS is seen as essential for achieving emissions targets, but it’s costly and requires government support. Encouragingly, many recognized that alternative fuels, process optimization, circular economy strategies, and product changes should be prioritized first, with CCS as a “last lever” to be pulled. Everything but the Kitchen Sink: The idioms proliferated to convey the clear consensus: we're going to need to move forward with all the feasible emisison reduction measures available, and can't count on any single solution to save the day. It will require “all hands on deck,” using “every arrow in the quiver,” and accepting that “there are no silver bullets, only silver buckshot.” It’s going to be tough, but I am looking forward to seeing how we keep moving toward better!
