Options for refinery decarbonisation
While there has been a focus on switching to low carbon hydrogen feeds, many options exist to decarbonise refineries, including energy efficiency, carbon capture and changing to bio-feedstocks.
Sulphur degassing – safety and economics
Sulphur degassing reduces hydrogen sulphide content in molten sulphur, which lowers toxic exposure risk, reduces the likelihood of explosive headspace conditions, and improves downstream handling.
Lloyd’s Register grants first class approval for BeHydro’s 100% hydrogen marine engine
Lloyd’s Register (LR) has issued the first Type Approval Certificate for a 100% hydrogen-fuelled, spark-ignited marine engine. The approval has been awarded to the hydrogen engine developed by BeHydro and confirms the design meets LR’s requirements for safety, performance and reliability in marine applications.
Boosting nitric acid production
Stamicarbon outlines key strategies and considerations for successful nitric acid plant revamps, including capacity enhancement, emission control, energy optimisation, and safety improvements.
Hy2gen’s Albatros wins EU Hydrogen Bank support
Hy2gen Nordic’s Albatros renewable hydrogen project in Kassø, Denmark, has secured support from the European Hydrogen Bank. The project centres on a 100 MW RFNBO electrolyser aimed at industrial demand in Germany and across Europe.
Cefic urges rethink of EU carbon market
The European Chemical Industry Council (Cefic), which represents large, medium and small chemical companies across Europe, has urged EU policymakers to slow changes to the Emissions Trading System (ETS).
Green ammonium nitrate for Canada's mines moves closer to reality
Hy2gen AG has contracted Plug Power to supply a 275 MW proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyser system for Project COURANT, its renewable ammonium nitrate development in Québec, Canada, marking a significant milestone in the project’s Front-End Engineering and Design (FEED) phase ahead of a planned Final Investment Decision (FID) in 2027. Project COURANT is designed […]
Lower site emissions and energy costs
Siemens explains how digital process twins and real-time optimisation can be used to achieve significant cost savings and reduce emissions at industrial sites.
EnviNOx cuts N2O emissions at CSBP nitric acid plants
thyssenkrupp Uhde has delivered its patented EnviNOx® technology to CSBP’s newest nitric acid plant at Kwinana in Western Australia, achieving more than 98% reduction of nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions and outlet concentrations below 1 ppmv.
