Celanese is pleased to announce that it has been approved by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)'s Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management as the first Utilization Procurement Grants vendor. The company is now the only producer offering low-carbon acetic acid under the ECO-CC product name, which positions it to help municipalities meet the growing demand for more #sustainable and #circular solutions.

This includes Celanese ECO-CC products manufactured using carbon capture and utilization technology, which have demonstrated significant net reductions in life cycle greenhouse gas emissions and passed a critical DOE review of the product’s life cycle analysis.

“African American pioneers and innovators like Hiram Rhodes Revels, Rebecca Lee Crumpler and Percy L. Julian have made contributions that helped enrich their direct descendants, their communities and most importantly, our country at large. Regardless of the challenges they faced, or limitations placed upon them, they remained persistent and paved the way for others to follow.” –Jamie Gaitor, Celanese senior research and development scientist and BOLD member

Our BOLD employee resource group chapters are highlighting black resilience and creating opportunities to help develop the upcoming generation of African Americans by volunteering, mentoring and providing resources.

Our Dallas Latino Impact, Development & Empowerment Resource (LIDER) employee resource group recently donated $20,000 to Otis Brown Elementary School, its signature partner. Committed to fostering growth and connection to the Latino community, LIDER strives to empower individuals to make a positive impact.

Otis Brown’s mission is to nurture holistic student development and academic success, particularly for its predominantly Hispanic, U.S. first-generation and Spanish-speaking students. Roughly 86% of the student population is also economically disadvantaged, so this partnership aims to support students and educators by bridging educational gaps with essential incentives and resources.
