The measurements provide the most detailed look at carbon emissions for a specific urbanized and industrialized region of China to date. Inefficient processes like wood- and coal-burning in domestic stoves convert less than 90 percent of the carbon fuel to CO 2 , releasing the remainder as CO and wasting some of the energy.

For the first time, the share of global CO 2 emissions from developing countries is slightly higher (50.3%) than from industrialized countries (46.6%) and international transport (3.2%) together. Coal consumption: lower increase due to financial crisis and more renewable electricity. Global CO2 emissions increased from 15.3

There is a tremendous amount of industrial and scientific interest in supercritical CO 2 systems for power generation using all potential heat sources including solar, geothermal, fossil fuel, biofuel and nuclear. The same principle is used to power jet engines today. This machine is basically a jet engine running on a hot liquid.
