Ebihangirwe bya kampuni ya tekinologiya y’embeera y’obwire nibihindura omuyaga gwa carbon dioxide n’amaizi kuba molekyu z’okukoresa omu by’obuhingi, amaani n’engyenda.
RICHLAND, Wash. , Nov. INPEX Corp nayo eyejumbire omu rweteerane oru. (IPXHF.NaE), Ofiisi y’eka ya LCY Lee hamwe n’okureeberera esente za MIH. Abashuubuzi nibeegaita ahari Halliburton Labs, ekitongore ky'amaani n'embeera y'obwire ekya Halliburton (NYSE: HAL), barikushagika okutunguuka kwa OCOchem kutandika n'omwaka 2021.
Okukozesa tekinologiya yaayo, kampuni erikushangwa omuri Richland, Washington neeguza omuringo musya gw’okuhindura omuyaga ogugarukiremu kukozesebwa (CO2), amaizi n’amashanyarazi agashemeire kuba formic acid na formates, obwo barikuhangaho molekyu z’omutindo ezitarikukora carbon. Emibazi mingi ey’omugasho, ebintu n’amajuta ebyabaire bikozirwe omu buhangwa kuruga omu bihingwa ebirikwegamira aha mafuta g’ebishaka hati nibibaasa kukorwa omu muringo ogurikugumizamu kandi ogutarikutwara sente nyingi barikukoresa molekyu egi ey’okwombeka.
OCOchem neija kukoresa esente ensya ezitungirwe kutunguura tekinologiya yaayo ey’okuhindura omuyaga gwa modular carbon kuhika aha rurengo rw’amakorero n’okutaho ekyombeko ky’okugyezesa emirimo y’okworeka eby’obushuubuzi. Abarikukora amakorero, amaani n’eby’obuhingi nibabaasa kugura formic acid na formate salts ezirikukorwa barikukoresa tekinologiya ya OCOchem kukyendeeza aha carbon intensity y’ebintu bya buriijo, kuruga aha by’okurya n’ebihimba kuhika aha mafuta n’ebihimba, aha muheendo nigwo gumwe nari mukye kukira ebintu ebirikushushana ebikozirwe kuruga omu by’amajuta.
"Turikukozesa tekinologiya ya OCOchem hamwe n'amashanyarazi agashemeire, hati turabaasa kukora eki ebimera n'emiti bikozire kumara obuhumbi bw'emyaka - okukozesa amaani marungi kuhindura carbon dioxide na amaizi kuba molecules z'omugasho. Kwonka okutashushana n'okukora eby'okurya, turabaasa kugyendera juba, tukorese eitaka ryingi." “omu muringo murungi kandi aha sente nkye,” nikwo omutandikyi kandi CEO wa OCOchem Todd Brix yaagizire. “ .
Joshua Fitoussi, Managing Partner wa TO VC, akagira ati: “Twine okushemererwa ahabw’okugira ngu electrochemistry neetandikaho enkora nsya y’amakorero nk’oku omuhendo gw’amaani agarikugarukaho gurikugumizamu nigugwa. emibazi y’omugasho munonga omu by’entaasya y’ensi yoona.OCOchem eri omu maisho g’empindahinduka egi, erikugaruka kushoboorora omuringo ogu CO2 erikureebekamu n’okureetaho ebintu bikuru kuruga omu nkora egi Nk’ekintu ky’okubanza, green formic acid n’ekintu ekirikushemeza munonga ahabw’okuba kiine okukoresibwa kwingi omu butare bw’eby’obuhingi n’amakorero oburiho hati n’omunywani wa CO2 omu biro by’omumaisho. OCOchem okuhikiiriza obujunaanizibwa bwayo obw’okuta amajuta g’ebishaka omu itaka kuba amazima.”
Oyihireho okuta sente omu kampuni egi, INPEX, kampuni mpango omuri Japan ey’okucondooza, okutunguura n’okukora amajuta na gaasi, ekwataine na OCOchem kukyebera emigisha y’okukoragana barikukoresa tekinologiya ya kampuni egi okutwara omuyaga gwa carbon dioxide n’omuyaga ogushemeire.
"Okukozesa amaani agarikugarukaho, tekinologiya ya OCOChem neehindura amaizi na carbon dioxide kuba formic acid, erikugumaho omu mbeera z'obuhangwa. Formic acid nayo neebaasa kuhindurwa kuba ebintu by'omugasho bya carbon na haidrojeni n'amaani makye. Eki ni kikuru ahabw'okuba ensi neebaasa kukoresa ebyombeko ebiriho eby'okugaba amaizi omu nsi yoona aha bwire bw'obutagatsi, ambient hydrogen okuha enkora erimu oburinzi kandi etarikutwara sente nyingi,” nikwo CEO w’ekitongore ky’entunguuka y’eby’obushuubuzi Shigeru arikugira. Thode kuruga omu INPEX.
Brix naagira ngu OCOchem terikuhindura carbon dioxide kuba ekintu ky’omugasho kyonka, beitu neekyendeeza n’aha sente z’amaani ezirikwongyerwaho n’okushohoza ebiriisa ebirikuruga omu kwiha carbon y’ebisigarira kuruga omu itaka, okugitwara omu myanya miraingwa n’okugikora aha bwire bw’obwire bw’obwire n’okugyemeserezibwa. “Omu nkora zaitu ezitebeekanisiibwe, okuhindura kaboni y‘ebisigarira nk‘eby‘okurya n‘okugarukaho kwa kaboni nikibaasa kukyendeeza aha kaboni erikuruga omu nsi yoona n‘ebicweka 10 ahari igana kandi kireete okukora emibazi y‘omugasho, amajuta n‘ebintu bingi eby‘omu kicweka. Haihi ebintu byona ebirikukorwa, ebirikukoresibwa nari ebirikukoresibwa nibirugiirira ahari kaboni. omu mwanya, omu nyanja n’omu itaka twaiha kaboni omu mwanya kandi tukakwata n’ebintu ebirikuruga omu mwanya, nitubaasa kuhangaho eby’entaasya ebirikwetoorora ebirikukyendeeza aha birikuruga omu mwanya obwo turikukora ebintu ebirikwegamira aha kaboni ebi ensi yaitu erikwetenga kubaasa kutunguuka.”
Brix agizire ngu obushagiki kuruga omu guruupu y’ensi yoona ey’abashuubuzi b’amakorero n’abanywani baabo n’okuhagira kw’amaani okukozesa okuhango kwa tekinologiya ya OCOchem omu kushoboorora enshonga z’okukyendeeza aha nshaho omu bicweka bingi eby’amakorero, eby’amaani n’eby’obuhingi. "Ekigyendererwa kyaitu n'okureetera ensi yoona kwikiriza tekinologiya yeitu ti habw'okugira ngu nekira kushiisha eby'obuhangwa byonka, beitu n'ahabw'okugira ngu n'ey'obukuumi, ey'amagara marungi kandi ey'okutooranamu ey'obuguzi bukye. Ensimbi ezi nizitubaasisa kwombeka tiimu yeitu, kwongyera aha tekinologiya yeitu n'okwongyera aha nkoragana yeitu kuha bizinesi nyingi emiringo eshemeire, ey'obuguzi bukye ey'okukyendeeza aha nshobi."
Tekinologiya ensya eya OCOchem neehwera omu kukyendeeza aha kaboni omu nsi barikukora ebintu barikukoresa kaboni n’amaizi ebikwatsirwe ebigarukiremu omu mwanya gw’okukoresa amajuta g’ebishaka agarikuruga omu itaka nk’entandikwa ya kaboni na haidrojeni. Ekyombeko kya kampuni egi ekirikuhindura omuyaga gwa kaboni, ekirikwetwa OCOchem Carbon FluX electrolyser, nikibaasa kwombekwa kandi kikoresebwe aha rurengo rwona.
OCOchem n’ekitongore ky’okutandikaho tekinologiya eshemeire ekirikuguza tekinologiya yaakyo erimu obugabe bw’okuhindura carbon dioxide n’amaizi omu miringo y’amashanyarazi kuba molecules ezigumire ezirikubaasa kukoresibwa kuhanga emibazi endiijo ey’omuhendo mukye, eshemeire, amajuta n’ebintu, otwariiremu n’ekyoma ekishemeire, ekirikugabwa. OCOchem eiguraho aha muheru gw'omwaka 2020 kandi neekora ekitongore kyayo ekikuru eky'okucondooza n'okutunguura eby'okucondooza n'okukora ebintu omuri Richland, Washington. Omwaka oguhweire kampuni egi ekakora ekyoma ekihango omunsi yoona eky’okukoresa amashanyarazi. Okumanya ebindi, za aha www.ocochem.com.
TO VC neeshagika tiimu z‘omugasho ezirikushoboorora ebizibu ebikuru omu nsi yoona. TO VC n‘ekitongore ky‘okubanza eky‘okukyendeeza aha nkora y‘okukyendeeza aha nkora y‘okukyendeeza aha nkora y‘okushohoza ebiriisa ebirikuta sente omu makampuni g‘eby‘obuhangwa omu nkora z‘eby‘okurya, enkora z‘amaani n‘okuihaho ebiriisa. Abarikukora aha nshonga z’okureeberera TO VC Arie Mimran na Joshua Fitoussi nibaikiriza ngu ebi n’ebicweka bishatu ebiine amaani g’okukora ebintu bisya kubaasa kuhikiiriza okukyendeeza aha nshobi z’omuyaga ogurikuruga omu itaka omu mwaka 2050 n’okugaruraho oburinganiza ahagati y’amagara g’abantu n’ensi. TO VC neikiriza ngu amakampuni makuru ag’omumaisho nigaija kuba gari amakampuni g’embeera y’obwire, kandi amakampuni agarikukirayo kushemeza abantu obunaku obu n’againe ekigyendererwa ky’okushoboorora empindahinduka y’obwire.
