Renewable fuels

Shipping, cargo vessels

New studies suggest that microbes found in human waste can be harnessed to produce biogas, offering a renewable energy source.

System that captures excess waste heat from ovens and production lines to reuse as energy rather than allowing it to dissipate.

Advanced gasification process developed by Compact Syngas Solutions that converts waste materials, including biomass and non-recyclable products, into electricity, heat, and hydrogen gas. The process also generates biochar for carbon sequestration.

Collaborative project between Denso and JERA to use waste heat for efficient hydrogen production, showcasing industrial symbiosis in energy sectors.

A 40-day sea trial of a hydrogen-powered K-class cargo vessel operating between Bristol and Belfast ports across the Irish Sea. The vessel will be equipped with a 50kW hydrogen auxiliary engine designed by Carnot and powered by 200kg of hydrogen supplied by Compact Syngas Solutions.

A waste-to-energy hydrogen initiative in Europe by Raven SR, described as pioneering in the waste-to-hydrogen sector.

A hydrogen-powered auxiliary engine designed for maritime applications. Will be tested at Brunel University and deployed on a K-class cargo vessel for the Irish Sea trial.
