SciMed, a UK distributor of lab equipment, gives a brief rundown of what’s required. There are a number of AOX/TOX regulations in force, for example, DIN ISO 9652, EPA 1650 for AOX in water and wastewater, and EPA 9020B for TOX in wastewater. AOX compounds resist breaking down in the environment, and have long half-life periods. Some of these molecules are toxic and can pose a threat to aquatic organisms living in estuaries because they can bioaccumulate in the food chain.

The company employs temperature vacuum swing adsorption (TVSA) to segregate CO2, before regenerating the adsorbent by ‘swinging’ to a vacuum.

With the first wave of the energy transition, renewable energy sources (such as solar and wind) have begun replacing coal power generation. However, some sectors are lagging behind and struggling to decarbonize more than others, including large-scale transportation like commercial aviation, shipping, and rail transit. Electrofuels (aka eFuels) are the next generation of solutions to help the hardest-to-abate sectors pivot from their reliance on fossil fuels.
