DNV validates Carbon8's carbon capture and utilization methodology

DNV has validated the methodology developed and used by Carbon8, an innovative cleantech company specialising in helping hard-to-abate industries reduce carbon emissions and landfilling of thermal residues. Carbon8’s patented technology permanently captures CO2 at source from hard-to-abate industries and DNV has verified that Carbon8’s methodology satisfies the ISO 14064 part 2 standard. The technology also diverts landfill-bound ashes and residues, transforming them into material which can be used within quality construction products and transforming the built environment into a carbon sink.

Onboard carbon capture technically feasible but commercial uptake relies on industry collaboration and regulatory acceptance, says DNV

Onboard carbon capture (OCC) is attracting interest within the shipping industry, providing shipowners with the opportunity to continue operating on conventional fuels while reducing emissions. However, according to DNV’s latest whitepaper “The potential of onboard carbon capture in shipping”, its success depends on collaboration between regulators, policy makers, industry stakeholders, class, and suppliers.

DNV appoints head of CCUS in response to technology’s growth

DNV has announced the appointment of Jamie Burrows as head of its Energy Systems business area’s Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) unit. Amidst COP28 proceedings, the move underscores DNV's commitment to CCUS as a pivotal tool for decarbonizing hard-to-abate sectors, such as heavy industry – including iron, steel, and cement production. In the dynamic landscape of the energy transition, this promising technology is also set to significantly curb emissions from the enduringly impactful oil and gas sector. Its significance is underscored by oil and gas’ continuing role in fulfilling the growing global energy demand over the coming decades.
