👉 Syngas at its best: This week in Cape Town, the international catalysis community has discussed progress and new approaches to create and convert syngas in a sustainable manner.

📊 From our group, recent results from Yannick, Jihao and Shilong on the hydrogen generation from green ammonia have been presented.

🇿🇦 Thanks to the organizers at the Catalysis Institute at UCT and to all colleagues for an inspiring meeting! (Note the great and unique live-drawing of graphical abstracts in a cartoon-like fashion during the talks! 🎨)

Ich gab 280 Euro im Monat fuer Sprit aus. Dann zeigte mir ein Kollege das hier.

Oh, das Tanken ist ja immer noch teuer, da muss man doch ein paar Leute mit einem wirkungslosen Hokuspokus betrügen können. Und tatsächlich, die Spam für diesen Syngas-Betrug, der mir gestern schon ins Postfach kam, gibt es auch noch einmal als HTML-formatierte Spam mit etwas mehr Text -- zum Glück wird der Müll vom rspamd sicher aussortiert und kommt hoffentlich bei niemanden an. Hier ist der Text: ZEITLICH BEGRENZTES ANGEBOT - 75% RABATT - SYNGAS - JETZT RABATT […]

-Spritkosten halbiert – mit einem Geraet kleiner als mein Schluesse . !!

Es wäre ja auch erstaunlich gewesen, wenn die Spammer nicht versuchen würden, den schon sehr benzinpreisgeplagten Autofahrern mit lustigen Wunderapparaten noch zusätzliches Geld aus der Tasche zu ziehen. Diese Spam -- standesgemäß über Google, den dicksten Kumpel und Komplizen des Spammers und Betrügers versendet -- hat mal wieder sehr wenig Text und teilt alles in einer großen Grafik mit, die blinde und schwer körperbehinderte Menschen nicht hürdenfrei lesen können. Das JPEG-Bild […]

Old fishing nets converted into energy via "Green Plasma"

Last December, Italian scientists converted 200 kg of ghost nets recovered from the seabed into #syngas – a hydrogen-rich combustible gas that can generate electricity

Since spring 2025, Marche Polytechnic Univ. in Ancona has operated Green Plasma as Italy's first system for treating marine waste

Unsorted waste is shredded and heated to 1000°C, turning it into gas

New electrolyzer turns plastic-waste syngas into ethylene with less energy

For every ton of ethylene created, one ton of carbon dioxide is produced. With more than 300 million tons of ethylene produced each year, the production system has a huge carbon footprint that scientists and engineers are eager to reduce and eventually eliminate. A new device developed in Ted Sargent's lab at Northwestern takes a step toward breaking that cycle.

Yes, direct carbon capture from the air to make syngas is really expensive. Make it less expensive, MIT. Meanwhile, that is how much it costs, in the short term. #syngas #DirectAirCapture think abt Greenland's ice sheet, totally melted

Coal gasification, an old technology, is quietly expanding across Asia

In Nagasaki prefecture, on the southern Japanese island of Kyushu, J-Power, the operator of the aging Matsushima coal-fired power plant, has an idea to keep the unit operating despite the country’s no-coal pledge: gasification. “Japan considers coal gasification a form of abatement, and thus in line with their commitments to phase out unabated coal power,” […]
