EP32: CO2 Summit Market Predictions

In this special live episode of Catching Carbon, recorded on stage at the 2024 Gasworld CO2 Summit in Nashville, hosts Jeff Holyoak and Luke Lana take a deep dive into the evolving CO2 market. Revisiting bold predictions made two years ago, the duo explores how those forecasts have played out and the unexpected shifts in supply and demand.
With the industry facing significant disruptions, emerging sources of CO2 are rising to meet demand, and traditional suppliers are seeing new challenges. Jeff and Luke discuss how market dynamics are evolving and why the CO2 supply chain of tomorrow will look drastically different from today. Whether you're navigating the current supply challenges or looking to stay ahead of market trends, this episode is packed with insights from industry experts.

EP: 31 Biogenic CO2 and the Future of Renewable Energy with Patrick Serfass

Patrick Serfass of the American Biogas Council joins the Catching Carbon Podcast to discuss the evolution of biogas as a viable source of CO2, and the importance of that CO2 being biogenic in nature. The group walks through the process of biogas upgrading, importance of the renewable natural gas, and the possible outlets for the byproduct CO2 that has historically been turned to waste. Additionally, the episode addresses concerns around the viability of the source, and methods to overcome.

EP: 30 Revolutionizing Carbon Capture with Tom Dower from LanzaTech

In this episode, Catching Carbon welcomes Tom Dower from LanzaTech to explore how their innovative approach to carbon capture is transforming the industry. LanzaTech takes carbon capture a step further by converting it into something valuable & useful at scale. Discover how they are replacing virgin fossil carbon in consumer goods & sustainable aviation fuel, paving the way for a more sustainable future.Join us as Tom delves into the science &  technology behind LanzaTech's process, the challenges they've faced, & the incredible impact their work is having on reducing carbon emissions. LanzaTech’s carbon recycling technology is like retrofitting a brewery onto an emission source like a steel mill or a landfill site, but instead of using sugars & yeast to make beer, pollution is converted by bacteria to fuels & chemicals.
