Brineworks: From “Magic Box” to Upgraded Suit | CO₂ + H₂ for E-Fuels (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What if the climate mission stays the same, but the technology gets a better suit? In this episode, Lydia catches up with Joe Perryman from Brineworks to unpack how the company evolved from its earlier ocean-based concept into a land-based system built around a closed saltwater loop. Brineworks now produces two key feedstocks for synthetic fuels: sustainable CO₂ and green hydrogen . But this conversation is about more than one company’s technical upgrade. It is also about a broader shift in clim
How Climate Tech Gets Out of the Lab | Prof. Vikram Yadav (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Most Bite-Size Climate Tech episodes start with one technology. This conversation became something much bigger. Professor Vikram Yadav happened to be in London, the weather cooperated, and we recorded one of those rare in-person BSCT episodes. We start with intelligent bioprocessing and a deceptively simple question: when does a scientific invention actually become innovation? From there, we explore why climate technologies need to be designed for scale from the beginning, why commercial reality
Can Cement Be Made With 85% Less CO₂ at the Same Cost? | Erin Bobicki, CURA (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Cement’s hidden CO₂ problem begins inside the rock itself. Much of cement’s emissions does not come only from the fuel burned in a kiln. The CO₂ is chemically locked inside limestone. Dr. Erin R. Bobicki, co-founder and CEO of CURA, joins Lydia Chen to explain how the company aims to separate that CO₂ before the limestone enters the cement kiln. Using the familiar reaction between vinegar and chalk, Erin breaks down CURA’s electrochemical pre-calcination process: electricity produces acid and ba
The Protein Shake for Batteries? How LiRA Restores Lithium-Ion Packs | BSCT S5E4 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Alex Ivanenko is back on Bite-Size Climate Tech. He first joined the show in Season 2 to talk about HyWatts and hydrogen reversible fuel cells. This time, he returns with a new company, The Lithium Company, and a new idea: LIRA, the Lithium Inventory Refill Agent. The simplest version? A protein shake for batteries. In this conversation, Alex explains why some lithium-ion batteries may not be structurally dead, but depleted. We talk about active lithium inventory, battery restoration, the differ
