Researchers demonstrate electrochemical synthesis of ammonia from air and water under mild conditions

Green Car Congress

Globally 131 million tons of ammonia were produced in 2010. Natural gas or coal is used as the energy source of the ammonia industry. Natural gas or coal is used as the energy source of the ammonia industry. To the best of our knowledge, there is no report on artificial synthesis of ammonia direct from air and water.

I’ve Done The Math – Now I’m Doing Something About It

Creative Greenius

I had no other choice once I did The Math and saw what things add up to – and how little time we have left before the global temperature goes past the Game Over limit of 2°C. But our friends in the oil, coal and gas industry have 5,795 gigatons of carbon on the books. Who the f**k do they think they’re kidding?

Researchers develop microwave-driven, energy-efficient process for magnesium production

Green Car Congress

The hot reaction zone is either gas-fired, coal-fired, or electrically heated in a furnace; the condensing section is water-cooled. the impact of Mg metal production on climate change needs to be understood at a global scale and a new, energy-saving process for fabricating Mg ingots should be considered. —Wada et al.

How to Hasten India’s Transition Away From Coal

Cars That Think

The rising threat of global warming requires that every country act now. One might argue that the onus of reversing global warming should fall on the developed world, which on a per capita basis consumes much more energy and emits significantly more greenhouse gases. While electricity from older coal plants in India costs 2.7

Wind-to-Hydrogen Tech Goes to Sea

Cars That Think

The technology to produce hydrogen by electrolyzing water has been around for more than 200 years. Hydrogen is thus greasing the wheels of the global transition to cleaner energy. In 2021, global hydrogen demand was 94 million tonnes, most of it used in refining and in chemical industries.
