Peel NRE, part of Peel L&P, and waste to energy provider, Bioenergy Infrastructure Group (BIG) have secured £250 000 from the Department of Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy’s (BEIS) Net Zero Innovation Portfolio for the Ince Bioenergy Carbon Capture and Storage project (InBECCS).
The project will fund design work for a carbon capture demonstration facility – based on innovative technology developed by C-Capture Ltd – at Ince Bio Power, one of the largest waste wood gasification plants in the UK. Ince Bio Power is located at Protos, Peel NRE’s strategic energy and resource hub in Cheshire, England. The plant, part of BIG, currently uses commercial waste wood which would otherwise go to landfill, to produce energy to power over 42 500 homes.
Champagne-inspired tech captures CO2 from the oceans
Scientists from Exeter have developed a technology that allows carbon dioxide to ‘bubble out’ of seawater

What if a bottle of champagne full of seawater showed us the way for a better carbon capture process?
A scientific group from the University of Exeter has developed a new carbon capture technology that works in a similar way as the process of capturing the carbon dioxide bubbles in a fizzy drink.
Their solution uses natural-based processes and renewable energy to remove carbon from seawater that can then be returned to capture more carbon dioxide.
