In Ludwigshafen chemical giant BASF is building a pilot installation for the pyrolysis of methane. Besides hydrogen, the process does not produce CO2, but valuable solid carbon from natural gas or biogas. Next year the pilot installation will be put into operation. After 2025 commercial upscaling may follow.

ALIGN-CCUS project partners at RWE have produced synthetic fuel using carbon dioxide (CO2) captured from the flue gas of a coal-fired power station. The breakthrough has been made at RWE’s Niederaussem Power Station in North Rhine-Westphalia. Using a demonstration synthesis unit, which powered up last November.
