Converting Power to Fuel by Carbon Recycling

IMTOF2011CRIWEB

Carbon Recycling International (CRI) captures carbon dioxide from industrial emissions and converts carbon dioxide into Renewable Methanol (RM). RM is a clean fuel that can be blended at different levels with gasoline to meet renewable energy directives. The production process captures carbon dioxide and minimizes emissions from energy intensive industries. CRI's methanol is compatible with existing energy and fuel infrastructure.

RM is a blend fuel for existing automobiles and hybrid flexible vehicles and can be purchased at existing gasoline stations. The production of RM is feasible at many locations around the world with geothermal, wind, and solar energy sources. CRI plans to build commercial plants for both domestic consumption and export to other European countries.

Carbon Recycling International implements power-to-fuel technology in Germany

11 December 2014

Carbon Recycling International (CRI) will collaborate with industrial partners from Germany, Spain and Belgium to implement its Emissions-to-Liquids technology in an innovative renewable fuel production plant, recycling carbon-dioxide emissions from a coal-fired power plant in Germany. The project has a budget of 11 million Euros and is partially funded by a grant from the EU Horizon2020 research program.

This represents a milestone for CRI in deploying its technology solutions into Europe, which include future sales of equipment and services for end-to-end power-to-fuels technology solutions.

Converting pollution into renewable methanol and sulfuric acid

03 May 2013

Morgunbladid May 3

• Proposal for production of methanol and sulfuric acid at Hellisheidi
• Hydrogen sulfide pollution would be mitigated

Carbon Recycling International (CRI) has presented Reykjavik Energy (Orkuveita Reykjavikur) with a proposal for plants to produce revenue from carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide emissions from the Hellisheidi power plant. The estimated export revenue for the production materials, methanol and sulfuric acid, would be about four billion ISK per year and investment in the production plant about 6-7 IS per year. The company operates a methanol plant at Svartsengi and the same technology would be used for production at Hellisheidi. The method for sulfuric acid production is based on technology already in use internationally.
