DG Fuels’ Nebraska plant will produce 193 million gallons of zero or low CO2 lifecycle emissions SAF per year starting in 2030. In August 2024, DG Fuels selected Phelps County, Nebraska, for its first Midwest production facility, in cooperation with the Nebraska BioEconomy.
Green Plains announced in June 2024 it has executed construction management agreements and ordered the major equipment necessary to capture the carbon from three of its Nebraska ethanol facilities. The company plans to commence construction in the second half of 2024, and to begin capturing the biogenic carbon dioxide associated with the production of 287… Continue reading Green Plains | Nebraska Ethanol Plants CCS
The conversion of Archer-Daniels-Midland’s (ADM) dry mill in Columbus, Nebraska, into a SAF production facility. ADM and Gevo signed an MoU in October 2021 to support the production of SAF and other low-carbon-footprint hydrocarbon fuels. The MoU contemplates the production of both ethanol and isobutanol that would then be transformed into renewable low-carbon-footprint hydrocarbons, including… Continue reading ADM | Gevo | Columbus SAF Project
The Heartland Greenway Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) project is expected to provide the infrastructure and network to connect industrial emitters of CO2 to new and developing markets for their carbon, while ensuring project developers have access to a CO2 supply. In May 2023, Navigator CO2 entered into an MoU with Infinium to deliver 600,000 tons… Continue reading Heartland Greenway Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage Project
The hub study area comprises CO2 sources in Iowa, Kansas, and Nebraska and CO2 sinks in Kansas and Nebraska, representing the first potential large-scale project for the Midcontinent region. The stacked storage corridor is characterized by alternating sequences of deep saline formations, oil-bearing reservoirs, shale, and evaporite units that are conducive to vertically stacked CO2… Continue reading Integrated Midcontinent Stacked Storage Carbon Hub
A potential carbon capture operation at Nebraska Public Power District’s Gerald Gentleman Station, near Sutherland. The project received funding from the U.S. Department of Energy National Energy Technology Laboratory. ION Clean Energy conducted the FEED study. ION utilizes its solvent-based CO2 capture technology, ICE-21, as the basis for the CO2 capture design. As of 2023,… Continue reading Gerald Gentleman Station Carbon Capture
The project intends to capture carbon dioxide from the fermentation process of biorefineries such as ethanol plants, compress the captured CO2, and channel it to North Dakota where it will be stored underground in deep geologic storage locations. The project includes an approximately 2,000-mile pipeline network. Summit Carbon Solutions has a partnership with 34 ethanol… Continue reading Summit Carbon Solutions CCS Pipeline
A proposed hydrogen hub serving the states of Nebraska, Iowa, and Missouri. The project goal for the proposed hub is to utilize combined natural resources and innovative optimization tools to establish a renewable clean hydrogen hub in support of the Department of Energy’s strategy for achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. The hub-wide goal aligns… Continue reading Mid-Continent Clean Hydrogen Hub — MCH2 (Encouraged)
The Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) project at the Bridgeport Ethanol Plant will capture and store 95 percent of annual carbon dioxide emissions during the fermentation process before it can be released into the atmosphere. The plant uses fermented corn to produce ethanol — a renewable fuel made from plants to oxygenate gasoline and reduce… Continue reading Bridgeport Ethanol Carbon Capture and Storage Project
The project involves the expansion of a proprietary process to produce approximately 275,000 metric tons per year of carbon-free anhydrous ammonia in the United States. Monolith Materials in 2021 commissioned Olive Creek 1 (OC1), its first commercial-scale carbon-free production facility which is designed to produce approximately 14,000 metric tons of carbon black per year. With… Continue reading Monolith | Olive Creek OC1
