Celebrated 100,000 hours of CO2 capture
For 12 years, the pilot plant for CO2 capture at Tiller has been testing technology that is crucial for Norwegian industry to realize carbon capture and storage, and for Norway to help solve the global climate challenges.
We know that carbon capture from the atmosphere is possible. But how do we get there?
Direct Air Capture (DAC) technologies offer new opportunities for getting closer to our climate change mitigation targets. However, we still have a long way to go before DAC can be fully rolled out as a mitigation measure.
Cultivating salad plants that can be grown on the Moon
NASA has finished its planning and is ready to go. Humans will soon be returning to the Moon – this time in a manned base. But, if this project is to succeed, astronauts must be able to grow their own food. Norwegian researchers are in the process of...
Unlocking the potential of biofuels production in Europe
The EU project REFOLUTION aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from aircraft and ships by developing advanced and cost-effective biofuels.
This wheel gave the Berling field lower CO2 emissions and saved the construction project for several hundred million NOK
Research on «ice plugs» in pipes gave the oil company OMV the confidence to omit heating cables.
SINTEF to use its world-class CO2 flow facility and multiphase modelling expertise to develop a unique simulator for CO2 transport and injection

New EU project will help reduce CO2 from industrial clusters and hubs in Europe using carbon capture, use and storage (CCUS).
Converting CO2 emissions into products - European Green Deal project PyroCO2 kicks off
A new innovation project will demonstrate large-scale conversion of industrial carbon emissions into value-added chemicals and materials.
SINTEF researchers awarded the prestigious RCS Horizon award
Chemists all over the world can now grow virtual crystals with the new software CrystalGrower. SINTEF's Duncan Akporiaye and Bjørnar Arstad are among the researchers that developed the software and were awarded this year's Horizon award for their...
SINTEF and ACC join forces to make industry emissions-free
CO₂ emissions are difficult to avoid in several industrial processes, but with CCS technology these emissions can be removed. SINTEF and Aker Carbon Capture (ACC) are now continuing their collaboration to deliver the CO₂ capture solutions of the...
CO2 as a raw material becomes a "game changer" for the industry
CO2 emissions equivalent to what 2,200 cars produce in a year can be turned into new products using biotechnology. In the EU project PyroCO2, the greenhouse gas CO2 will become a profitable business, at the same time the project will contribute to...
NV GL, TCM and SINTEF join forces in major international carbon capture and storage partnership
Three international organizations specializing in technology research, testing, advisory services, and standardization have joined forces to find new ways to accelerate the adoption of carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) technology in...
Ceramic 3D printing for fast, safe and cheaper production of vaccines
The NESSIE research project makes it possible for the first time to produce highly complex vaccines in large quantities at low cost using ceramic 3D printing. The novel process makes vaccines available to countries that previously could not afford...
