New System Paves Way Towards Transforming Greenhouse Gases into Industrial Fuels

Visualize a day when emissions spilling from heavy industry and power plants are trapped and conveyed into catalytic reactors that chemically convert greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide (CO2), into chemicals or industrial fuels that release only oxygen.

The Role of Black Carbon in Climate Change

Black carbon is formed during the incomplete combustion of carbon-based fuels: post-industrial surges in atmospheric black carbon have contributed massively to the warming of the Earth’s climate, but exactly how these tiny particles contribute to climate change is unclear.

Mere Cleaning of Energy Supply Not Sufficient to Achieve Paris Agreement Goals

Fossil fuels are used for Transporting goods, manufacturing products, and heating buildings. The authors of a new study have stated that the lack of critical change at present in these sectors will lead to a “lock-in” of increased emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) for several decades.
