Wind farms stand idle for days on end, a fire interrupts a vital cable from France, a combination of post-Covid economic recovery and Russia tightening supply means the gas price has shot through the roof – and so the market price of both home heating and electricity is rocketing. Climate Change. Gas is the only answer.

The goal is to design a novel fuel cell that uses coal and water to generate hydrogen, water and a stream of carbon dioxide gas, which can be captured and sequestered. Researchers will create a low-cost silicon/gallium-based solar cell that’s more than twice as efficient as conventional thin-film cells.

A team at George Washington University has demonstrated a new solar process that can produce lime (CaO) for cement without any emission of carbon dioxide, and at lower projected cost than the existing cement industry process. Thus no CO 2 is formed, to eliminate cement’s greenhouse gas contribution to anthropogenic climate change.

For future scenarios where vehicle technology costs were sufficiently competitive to advantage either hydrogen or electric vehicles, the increased availability of low-cost, low-CO 2 electricity/hydrogen provided more cost-effective CO 2 mitigation opportunities in the heat and power energy sectors than in transportation.

New research by a team at the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) in New York suggests that gas-aerosol interactions can amplify the global warming impact of some greenhouse gases. Methane’s GWP may also change with time as air quality regulations alter the background state of tropospheric chemistry. Source: Shindell at al.

This research article focuses on a highly favored route to the synthesis of controlled nanostructures at high rate, high yield, and low cost by molten carbonate electrolysis. Pulverized coal is often used as the flame fuel, and fuel is also added to heat and drive the calciner and preheaters. —Ren et al. C2CNT and cement.
