The BMW Group has reduced resource consumption and CO 2 emissions in vehicle production by 50% since 2006. The plants will take advantage of the best options at each location—from solar energy in Oxford, Mexico and China, to biogas in South Africa, to wind power in Leipzig. Sustainability in production.

In addition to emissions originating from reducing agents and electrodes, the calcination of carbonates in ores and fluxes such as limestone or dolomite, contribute to the emission of CO 2. Primary emissions in covered arc furnaces consist almost entirely of CO, due to the strong reducing environment. Resources. Lindstad, S.E.

Among strategies to reduce CO 2 emissions in the transport sector, a shift to active transport (walking and cycling) and rapid transit/public transport combined with improved land use can yield much greater immediate health “co-benefits” than improving fuel and vehicle efficiencies, according to a new WHO (World Health Organization) report.

The automotive catalytic converter, developed in the early 1970s primarily by General Motors and BASF/Engelhard and first deployed in 1975, changes exhaust pollutants into CO 2 , water vapor and nitrogen. With ever-increasing emission requirements, this could help offset a potential cost increase for customers. Source: SDCmaterials.

The proposed CO 2 and H 2 pathway (bottom) rather than the traditional CO and H 2 pathway (top) can improve efficiency and reduce CO 2 emissions by 15%. Water can be recycled in both cases, and in the second process, can pump heat back into the gasification section. Credit: Adapted by P. Huey/Science. Click to enlarge.

With all this, consumers and policymakers alike are hopeful that society will soon greatly reduce its carbon emissions by replacing today’s cars with electric vehicles. EVs lack tailpipe emissions, sure, but producing, operating, and disposing of these vehicles creates greenhouse-gas emissions and other environmental burdens.
