Niina Grönqvist’s article: “North America wants more carbon products – and to reduce their import”
The fast-growing battery industry needs the security of supply. While companies’ demand for high-value carbon products is snowballing, it is becoming increasingly crucial for businesses to access battery materials that are produced close to battery factories.
It’s no coincidence that Hycamates are happy in their jobs
We asked Hycamite staff how satisfied they were with their jobs. The answer from our team was a resounding yes – Hycamite is excellent to work for.
It Is Time to Curb Methane Slips
Our society needs methane, and there is no way to stop using it. This is the lesson we have learned now that most European countries have done their best to find ways to reduce the use of Russian natural gas. However, we need to learn to use methane better. For example, we have to get more effective in preventing methane leaks. This is important for the economy and even more critical for the environment.
Carmakers need better sources of carbon for their batteries
Electric-vehicle makers and electricity storage system producers cannot increase significantly their production continue state-of-the-art development without new sources of raw materials for batteries. We need innovative solutions for producing sustainably high-quality carbon near the manufacturers for competitive prices.
Slow down climate change with zero-emission hydrogen from methane
A vast amount of hydrogen is required for a quick and proper energy transition. Sufficient infrastructure for extensive hydrogen production with electrolysis cannot be timely implemented. Technological and sustainability limitations are preventing carbon capture and storage (CCS) from becoming a viable large-scale option. However, methane decomposition is a technology that can lead to the sufficient and cost-efficient production of hydrogen in the coming decades.
Don’t waste carbon to the sky
Carbon is a valuable resource. Rather than wasting that to the atmosphere, it should be reused. Industry can use different forms of pure carbon in numerous ways.
CCS technologies cannot provide enough emissions-free hydrogen
During the transition to green hydrogen, we need solutions for producing H2 from fossil fuels without CO2 emissions. Investments in carbon capture and storage technologies are welcome.
