Compared with burning coal, natural gas emits about half the carbon dioxide and substantially less soot, mercury and sulfur. Natural gas must be developed with safeguards to reduce impacts on water, air quality, land, nearby communities and ecosystems. —Mark Zoback, a professor of geophysics and NGI’s director.

would be designed to capture up to 90% of its carbon dioxide for enhanced oil recovery and sequestration in an adjacent oil field. IGCC also significantly reduces criteria emissions—sulfur dioxide, nitrous oxide, mercury and particulate matter—and decreases water consumption by up to 30% (as compared to a conventional coal plant).

Ford Mustang, F-150, Focus, Flex, Escape, Expedition and Econoline as well as Mercury Mariner, Lincoln MKS and Navigator also use the sustainable material. The 2 million Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles on the road today with bio-foam seats equates to a reduction in petroleum oil usage of approximately 1.5 million pounds.

Improper disposal poses risks such as soil and water contamination. Spent lithium-ion batteries contain hazardous materials like lead, cadmium, and mercury, which, if not properly disposed of, can leach into soil and water, causing significant ecological harm. Recycling reduces the need for new material extraction.

Eventually the linings [of devices] break, and when they're rained upon, the very toxic materials [they contain] — mercury, lead, arsenic, beryllium, cadmium — come out. If they get back into the land and water, it has very negative effects on the health of our vegetation, our animals, and our people.

TCEP will be an integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) 400 MW power/poly-gen plant that will capture 90% of the carbon dioxide, 99% of the sulfur, more than 95% of the mercury, and eliminate more than 90% of the nitrogen oxides produced by the process.

A hundred years ago, centimeter-scale tilt switches used a conductive blob of mercury rolling along a glass tube to close an electric circuit. The MEMS version, of course, is only a few millimeters in size, and instead of mercury, it uses a suspended block of silicon. Top: David Little/The Mercury News/Getty Images; Bottom: PurpleAir.

The historical progression of wavelengths went from 365 nanometers, generated using a mercury lamp, to 248 nm, via a krypton-fluoride laser, in the late 1990s, and then to 193 nm, from an argon-fluoride laser, at the beginning of this century. Nevertheless, the industry has had to make that wavelength change a number of times.

In the case of ORNL’s SNS, the target is mercury. SNS produces neutrons with an accelerator-based system that delivers short (microsecond) proton pulses to a target system (mercury), where neutrons are produced at by the collision of high-energy protons with the Hg target: 695 ns pulse with 60 Hz rep.
