The nation’s largest brine producer, Texas Brine, and its affiliates have salt positions in New York, Virginia, Texas and Louisiana that will enable access to major load centers in the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic and the Gulf Coast. Brine, a mixture of salt and water, is produced during the solution mining of salt formations.
The New York City Department of Citywide Administrative Services (DCAS) will, for the first time, use renewable diesel, a low-emissions, 99% petroleum-free fuel, to power more than 1,000 City government vehicles, including in large vehicles such as sanitation trucks. from the intermediate renewable hydrocarbons.
thyssenkrupp has signed a contract with Illinois-based CF Industries to supply a 20 megawatt alkaline water electrolysis plant to produce green hydrogen at their Donaldsonville, Louisiana, manufacturing complex. The company’s first green ammonia project will be implemented at its Donaldsonville, Louisiana, manufacturing complex.
USDA has reached an agreement with Silicon Valley Bank to provide a $91-million Biorefinery Assistance Program loan guarantee to Cool Planet to help the company finish construction on an advanced biofuel plant at the Port of Alexandria in Louisiana. Earlier post.). The main catalysts are proprietary modified ZSM-5 catalysts.
The National Science Foundation (NSF) has made 11 awards totaling $55 million aimed at building research capacity to develop new innovations at the intersection of food, energy and water systems and to address fundamental questions about the brain. Research at the nexus of food, energy and water. Lead organization. Description.
a developer of renewable algae-based biofuels, started pilot operations at the company’s test facility in Brownsville, TX. Consisting of 45 acres of open saltwater ponds, the facility will be used for research on optimizing algal productivity and increasing the rates of conversion of biomass into renewable oils. LiveFuels, Inc.,
Louisiana-based startup New Oil Resources (NOR) is commercializing a near-critical (i.e., New Oil Resources licensed the technology (US Patent 6,180,845 ) in 2009 from Louisiana State University (LSU); the original developers of the process are Drs. The process has a small footprint, produces renewable energy and is water friendly.
However, most low temperature geothermal resources are not hot enough to be harnessed through traditional geothermal processes, including dry steam or flash steam power plants, which typically use water at temperatures greater than 360 °F (182 °C). In the United States, an average of 10 barrels of water is produced with every barrel of oil.
As a comparison, Air Products’ newly announced blue hydrogen megaproject in Louisiana will produce some 1.8 During its first phase, the Mississippi Clean Hydrogen Hub is expected to produce an estimated 110 million kilograms (kg) of green hydrogen annually and store more than 70 million kg of green hydrogen in its underground salt caverns. (As
with an $11-million loan guarantee through the Biorefinery, Renewable Chemical, and Biobased Product Manufacturing Assistance Program. million cubic feet of renewable natural gas, 350 gallons of liquid fertilizer, and 11.2 The plant will return approximately 172,000 gallons of treated water to the Port of Morrow daily.
The vehicles and infrastructure being funded include the use of natural and renewable gas, propane, ethanol, biodiesel, electricity, and hybrid technologies. The project will convert local landfill gas (LFG), a renewable fuel source, to compressed natural gas and develop five CNG fueling stations throughout the metro-Atlanta area.
Macroalgae can be utilized as a feedstock for domestic transportation fuels, chemicals and other commercial products without competing with food crops for land and water. Finally, the team seeks to demonstrate a prototype harvester that could be adapted to renewable power sources. Marine Biological Laboratory – Woods Hole, MA.
Additionality is proof that the renewable-energy project would not happen without the capital generated by selling carbon credits. Field-to-Pump” maximizes rural development and job creation while minimizing feedstock supply risk, the burden on local water supplies, and the amount of energy necessary to process sugar into fuel ethanol.
Some offset projects may provide further benefits, such as: (a) the promotion of sustainable development; (b) improvements in air or water quality; (c) the creation of new domestic and international economic opportunities; and (d) the incentivization of innovation as parties seek new methods of generating offsets.

But the scientists now know that we’re NOT going to save our children from that hell and high water that’s coming their way. The combination of these complex climate changes threatens coastal communities and cities, our food and water supplies, marine and freshwater ecosystems, forests, high mountain environments, and far more.
The legislation would also provide new incentives for domestic oil and gas drilling, nuclear power plant construction, carbon capture and storage, and renewable energy sources like wind and solar. Ultimately, the decision of whether to invest in renewable energy will be made by investors taking a cold, hard look at economic realities.
