Producing Graphene Materials
Build up of the graphene materials industry has progressed a bit more slowly than originally expected a decade ago as scientists and engineers peered through their electron microscopes at single atoms of carbon and counted their many attributes. At the time the potential to improve performance in end products like metal alloys and electronics seemed limitless. Unfortunately, reality has not imitated early dreams. Those companies that have brought graphene to the commercial market will attest to the challenges of jumping off the laboratory bench and into a factory.
Even more frustrating is the sourcing of graphene to use in research, product development and...

Integrated Graphene Producers
Graphene is a one-atom thick sheet of carbon atom arranged in a honeycomb lattice. It is an exceptional conductor of heat and electricity and its strength is unparalleled. Although synthetic graphite can be used to produce graphene and it offers the benefit of consistency, natural graphite is far less expensive as a source material. Synthetic graphite is made by combining petroleum coke with carbon black in a high heat process that burns up profits as it purifies the carbon.
There are several methods for producing graphene. Exfoliation of natural graphite is perhaps the most common alternative because it produces the least defects and leaves...
List of Biochemicals Stocks

List of Green Investment Advisors
If you want your money to help with the transition to the clean energy economy, most investment advisors will probably try to accommodate by finding a few green mutual funds for you.
There are now hundreds of mutual funds and ETFs that brand themselves as green, but many will not meet your definition of what is "green." This could mean not being completely divested from fossil fuels, investing in nuclear power, or owning too much of non-fossil fuel stocks like Apple (AAPL) and Facebook (FB) and not enough green-focused companies like Tesla (TSLA).
An investment advisor who does not consider values...
List of Synthetic Fuel and Drop-in Biofuel Stocks
Synthetic fuel stocks are publicly traded companies creating transportation fuel from non-liquid feedstocks such as natural gas, coal, and municipal waste. Drop-in biofuel stocks are publicly traded companies creating transportation fuel from organic feedstock that can be used, transported, and stored by conventional petrofuel infrastructure. A synthetic fuel is a biofuel if it is made from organic feedstock. It is a drop-in fuel if it is compatible with the existing infrastructure for petroleum based fuels.

Leading Indian Renewable Energy Stocks
By Ishaan Goel
India is amongst the largest renewable energy markets in the world, ranking third in solar, fourth in wind and fifth in hydro power capacity. Due to its rapidly growing economy, India’s energy needs are constantly on the rise. Moreover, countering air pollution has become one of the government’s top priorities. To achieve this, it has set out the world’s largest expansion plan for renewable energy - a 5x increase of installed capacity to 450 GW by 2030.
The Indian renewable energy market can broadly be divided into two categories - private firms and state-owned enterprises (known as public-sector...

Graphite Developers Eye Large Growing Market
The post “Integrated Graphene Producers” featured several graphene producers with novel business models that marry captive graphite sources to the technology and knowhow to produce graphene. These are not the only graphite producers. Although not as elegant as graphene with its svelte single-atom profile, the market for graphite has its appeal as well. Graphite has been a staple in steel industry crucibles, foundry molds and automobile brake linings. These days graphite has moved into another even more important place in cars - lithium ion batteries that make electric vehicles viable as replacements for gas guzzling cars and trucks.
Spherical graphite is especially desirable because the graphite anodes hold...
