Even on land, getting oil from tar sands depletes water and other resources and doubles oil’s carbon footprint. And oil only seems cheap. That’s too long to wait to improve energy security, protect our economy, and address climate change. But let’s realize: defending our nation is never cheap.

A team led by Professor Jae Sung Lee at Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST), with colleagues at Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH), have developed a new pathway for the direct conversion of CO 2 to liquid transportation fuels by reaction with renewable hydrogen produced by solar water splitting.

Eliza Strickland: Man-made climate change is already reshaping our planet, and carbon emissions aren’t coming down fast enough to stave off real disaster in the decades to come. It’s often called geoengineering in the popular press, but the preferred term is climate intervention. Transcript. Wanser: Certainly.

Robert Dorner and his colleagues are looking at converting CO 2 and hydrogen (both won from sea-water) over catalysts, using the CO 2 as a building block to form synthetic fuel. The electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide. Earlier post.). This catalyst converts the feed gas predominantly to methane under all conditions (ca.

The photothermocatalytic process for the synthesis of hydrocarbons—including liquid alkanes, aromatics, and oxygenates, with carbon numbers (C n ) up to C 13 —ran in a flow photoreactor operating at elevated temperatures (180–200 °C) and pressures (1–6 bar) using a 5% cobalt on TiO 2 catalyst and under UV irradiation.

The vision is fuelled by the fear of climate change and the need to find green alternatives to dirty coal, unpopular nuclear power and unreliable gas imports from Russia. So, the used batteries are almost arbitrarily cheap since an arbitrarily large fraction of their cost of production can be loaded on their use in transportation.

I also think it will be cheap, which is why I think someone will buy the group. Well, then, youre back to coal burning power plants, and a dirty little secret the H2 hypers dont like to discuss: The electrical storage efficiency of water electrolysis, compression for storage, and PEM fuel cell combined is only 23%.

Furthermore, changing the battery pack on say a Toyota Prius often costs a fortune, at least in most European countries, so such cars better be VERY cheap, but they’re not. Next: a carbon tax. To convince me and the general public about purchasing an electric car, there are a lot of challenges to overcome.

The Earth continues to experience record-breaking temperatures caused by increased atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) and other greenhouse gases (GHGs). US intelligence and defense agencies say such environmental changes can lead to energy insecurity, water and food shortages, and social instability.
