Articles from Emvolon

Emvolon, an MIT spun-off technology company that converts greenhouse gas emissions into carbon-negative fuels and chemicals, today announced several commercial and technical milestones. Following its recent field pilot announcement with Montauk Renewables to demonstrate the benefits of converting biogas into green methanol, Emvolon has secured multiple new partnerships with biogas suppliers, green methanol product offtakers, and multinational equipment and technology companies. Additionally, Emvolon announced that MIT has completed its licensing contract with the company. This protects Emvolon’s proprietary technology, originally developed by the company’s founders as MIT researchers, and supports Emvolon’s continued research on chemical decarbonization.

Emvolon, an MIT spin-off that converts greenhouse gas emissions into carbon-negative fuels and chemicals, today announced an agreement with Montauk Renewables, Inc. (NASDAQMNTK), a renewable energy company specializing in the management, recovery and conversion of biogas from waste into renewable natural gas. Leveraging Emvolon’s patented technology, the initial pilot is a commercial-scale demonstration of recovering and converting biogas into green methanol, which is expected to take place at Montauk’s renewable gas production site at a landfill in Humble, Texas.

Emvolon, a technology company developing a platform for distributed chemical production from resources that otherwise would be wasted, today announced a $1.5 million seed investment led by The Engine. The capital raised will fund building out the Emvolon team and creating a dedicated laboratory space for development of Emvolon’s platform that converts the wasted natural gas at flare sites into usable chemicals like methanol for use in a broad array of industrial applications or as a fuel.
