Novel adaptation for existing blast furnaces could reduce steelmaking emissions by 88%; closed-loop carbon recycling

Green Car Congress

This reduction is achieved through a closed-loop carbon recycling system, which could replace 90% of the coke typically used in current blast furnace-basic oxygen furnace systems and produces oxygen as a byproduct. If implemented in the UK alone, the system could deliver cost savings of £1.28 A double perovskite, Ba 2 Ca 0.66

Berkeley researchers propose salted biomass as scalable, economical and stable carbon capture and storage solution

Green Car Congress

Researchers from the University of California, Berkeley, are proposing burying salted biomass in a dry environment within an engineered biolandfill as a solution to sequester carbon that has been photosynthetically fixed by cultivated plants. A simplified version of the bio-landfill technology. It is essential to keep the biomass dry.
