Foreword
E MAP, the publisher of PTQ / Digital Refining, welcomes you to the first issue of Decarbonisation Technology, a digital magazine that focuses on the strategies, legislation and technologies powering the transition to sustainable fuels and energy. Over the coming months, our global multi-platform media brand will expand to include a website, online Q&A and a weekly newsletter. This will be followed by a series of conferences worldwide. We aim to become a popular forum for conversation between renewable and conventional energy producers, government advisers and policymakers, and other decision-makers interested in the energy transition to a sustainable future. Each issue we will explore the global deployment of decarbonisation technologies, whether mature, at early adoption, under demonstration or still a prototype. In our first issue, we discover how a former gasification plant is set to become one of the largest carbon capture and clean hydrogen production facilities in the US to date. We also turn our attention to Chile, and the challenges and opportunities CCUS presents there. In the call for improved energy efficiency, reduced emissions and increased competitive advantage, we highlight numerous innovative solutions – from strategies for decarbonising combustion to a novel approach for CO 2 removal from natural gas. In addition, we identify the crucial role catalysts and adsorbents will play in the energy transition, and reveal how to optimise green hydrogen production using system simulation. We hope you will find this issue interesting and informative.
