Researchers develop organic semiconductor photocatalyst with enhanced hydrogen evolution

Green Car Congress

However, photocatalysts formed from a single organic semiconductor typically suffer from inefficient intrinsic charge generation, which leads to low photocatalytic activities. They incorporated these materials into organic nanoparticles that can be tuned to absorb more of the visible light spectrum. Bidwell, M, Hyojung, C., Anjum, D.H.,

Study finds GHG emissions from corn ethanol now 46% lower than gasoline

Green Car Congress

Chan School of Public Health, and consulted by dozens of experts in academia, updates ethanol’s carbon intensity score to reflect how continuous improvements in technology and practices have driven further emissions reductions in the lifecycle of ethanol and will lead to net zero renewable fuel in the future. gCO 2 e/MJ (range of 37.6

HyPER project using sorbent-enhanced steam reforming for low-carbon production of H2 from natural gas

Green Car Congress

An international collaboration led by Cranfield University will examine the potential for the low-carbon production of hydrogen from natural gas. The outputs are high-purity streams of hydrogen and carbon dioxide which can be then stored, sold or transported to where it is needed. United States: N. Mays, Jeff.

Stanford Energy Modeling Forum project confirms carbon pricing can be effective way to curb GHG emissions

Green Car Congress

The Stanford Energy Modeling Forum (EMF) was established at Stanford more than 40 years ago to bring together leading experts and decision makers from government, industry, universities, and other research organizations to study important energy and environmental issues. What might be the effect of a carbon tax on revenue from other taxes?

Berkeley study identifies diesel as main source of vehicular secondary organic aerosols

Green Car Congress

The United States and California state averages shown are based on total on- and off-road use. The new findings contradict previous research focused on the LA Basin which concluded that gasoline vehicles contributed more to the production of secondary organic aerosols (SOA) than exhaust from diesel vehicles.
