The world needs to dramatically cut methane emissions to avoid worst of climate change, UN says
A landmark United Nations report has declared that drastically cutting emissions of methane, a key component of natural gas, is necessary to avoid the worst impacts of global climate change.
First Ethanol Alcohol-to-Jet Sustainable Aviation Fuel Production Facility Unveiled!
During a ribbon-cutting ceremony in Soperton, Georgia today, LanzaJet unveiled the Freedom Pines Fuels facility, the world’s first ethanol-based alcohol-to-jet sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) commercial production plant. With the completion of this facility, LanzaTech, its subsidiary LanzaJet, Inc., and their partners, will optimize the process for producing sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and reduce the cost of producing jet fuel renewable ethanol.
NREL Researchers Produce First Macromolecular Model of Plant Secondary Cell Wall
A multidisciplinary approach has enabled researchers with the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) to quantitatively define the relative positioning and arrangement of the polymers in Populus wood and to create a computer model that details the findings.
Methane: A crucial opportunity in the climate fight
Cutting methane emissions is the fastest opportunity we have to immediately slow the rate of global warming, even as we decarbonize our energy systems.
It’s an opportunity we can’t afford to miss.
Farmers: How to actually get paid for carbon
On the Carroll Family Farm in Carthage, Ill., being a good steward of the land isn’t a new concept. The Carrolls have raised corn, soybeans and pigs for five generations and counting, implementing conservation practices for decades.
Biofuels and climate markets could stem loss of farms, says Vilsack
The decades-long decline in the number of U.S. farms can be stanched by adopting climate-smart farming practices and crops, increasing biofuel production, and expanding local and regional marketing, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack told the largest U.S. farm group on Monday. There are 2 million farms in operation today; the number of farms peaked at 6.8 million in the 1930s.
6 Takeaways from the Iowa Renewable Fuels Summit
Last week the Des Moines, Iowa, area was hit with not one, but two blizzards. Sandwiched between them on the one halfway decent day of the week, the Iowa Renewable Fuels Association (IRFA) hosted the 2024 Iowa Renewable Fuels Summit (Summit).
Key vocabulary of the biofuels and carbon pipeline industries
The renewable fuels and carbon capture industries regularly use dozens of acronyms and other jargon. Here are the terms you need to know to understand the latest news and how it impacts the broader agriculture industry.
LanzaJet opens world's first ethanol-to-SAF production facility
Today LanzaJet celebrated the grand opening of the world's first ethanol-to-sustainable aviation fuel production facility.
“This is a historic milestone in a long history of firsts for LanzaJet, the United States, and the SAF [sustainable aviation fuel] industry globally,” says LanzaJet CEO Jimmy Samartzis in a statement. “Our novel LanzaJet ethanol-to-SAF process technology is now deployed at our commercial plant in Georgia which will convert ethanol into drop-in SAF.
