Teijin Limited has started to carry out a life-cycle assessment (LCA) of its carbon fibers to calculate their total carbon emissions—an industry first. Looking ahead, Teijin expects to expand its LCA scope beyond carbon fiber filaments to also include intermediate products such as short fibers and prepregs.

Although neither ice sheet is expected to melt completely anytime soon, their incredible scale makes even small changes consequential for the future of our planet. And the data that Peregrine will gather will help scientists to understand how these critical areas will respond to climate change.

One advance the group has recently achieved is the ability to synthesize carbon fibers using even less energy than when the process was initially developed. Carbon nanofiber growth can occur at less than 1 volt at 750 ˚C,—less than the 3-5 volts used in the 1,000 ˚C industrial formation of aluminum, he said.

For example, IDTechEx expects that lithium-metal and solid-state batteries, axial flux motors, and carbon fiber materials will play an important role in eVTOL markets. Broader commitments to climate change are spurring some countries, like Norway and Holland, or companies, like Volvo, to set their own targets.

This question of whether climate change becomes so bad that we have to do something to dull its impacts and reduce human suffering is a very big one,” says Keutsch, an atmospheric chemist.

And with its carbon fiber body, it has an excellent power-to-weight ratio. However, today, we have electric cars to make the change. Electric cars are said to be the solution to climate change. With more and more people being dependent on cars, this technology could help stop climate change.
