ExxonMobil’s next-generation H2 burner can help decarbonize a key industry
At its olefins plant in Baytown, Texas, ExxonMobil has designed and installed pyrolysis burners that can operate on up to 100% H2 fuel. A total of 44 burners were installed in one of the plant’s steam cracking furnaces.
Freija develops large-scale clean fuel production in the Tampere region
Freija is progressing the development of one of Europe’s largest clean fuel production facilities in the City of Nokia, Tampere region, Finland, to meet strong demand for eMethane driven by adopted EU directives.
Fortescue Energy CEO says green H2 cost is key as demand drops
Replacing fossil fuels with green hydrogen (H2) depends on creating demand by making it price competitive, as buyers are unwilling to pay "green premiums," Fortescue Energy CEO Mark Hutchinson said in Davos at the World Economic Forum.
John Cockerill achieves certification for H2-ready HRSGs
John Cockerill has announced the award of a concept certificate from TÜV-SÜD for the H2-readiness of its heat recovery steam generators (HRSGs).

Decarbonization pathway for net-zero by 2050: Carbon neutrality roadmap strategy for an integrated refinery and petrochemical facility
This article quantifies GHG emissions from various sources, such as fired heaters and boilers, within refinery and petrochemical operations. Based on these quantified emissions, a tailored carbon neutrality roadmap is developed, incorporating carbon reduction, mitigation and offsetting strategies.
Ammonia decomposition—Hydrogen carrier value chain
Ammonia (NH3) is emerging as one of the most promising H2 carriers, offering solutions to several critical challenges associated with H2 storage and transportation. As H2 is increasingly recognized as a pivotal component in the transition to a carbon-free energy future, efficient storage and transportation systems have become crucial for its widespread adoption.
Power up: Considerations to help understand the potential of cogeneration
Combined heat and power, also known as cogeneration, converts one form of energy to two usable forms, typically heat and power. By simultaneously producing onsite electricity and heat, cogeneration systems can provide reliable energy at reduced overall costs. Cogeneration is a very effective pathway to executing decarbonization strategies when coupled with renewable natural gas or other low-carbon fuels.
