This application alone reduces petroleum usage by some 20,000 pounds per year, reduces CO 2 emissions by 30,000 pounds per year, and represents a sustainable usage for wheat straw, the waste byproduct of wheat. Ontario, for example, has some 30 million metric tons of available wheat straw waste at any given time. More than 1.5

Neste MY Renewable Jet Fuel is produced 100% from waste and residue raw materials. Instead of escaping into the air, LFG can be captured, converted and used as a renewable energy resource. Over the lifecycle, it has up to 80% smaller carbon footprint compared to fossil jet fuel.

The process cracks the shale rock formation and allows natural gas to escape and flow up the well, along with some wastewater. The majority of waste water disposal wells do not pose a hazard for induced seismicity though there have been induced seismic events with a very limited number of wells.

The chassis-mounted CCV system prevents crankcase emissions, generated by the engine during normal operation, from escaping into the atmosphere. Crankcase emissions are captured and redirected through the CCV filter, where oil is removed, before sending the gases back to the intake manifold to be reintroduced to the combustion chamber.

During deceleration and under braking, the electric motor acts as high-output generator to effect regenerative braking, optimizing energy management in the Lexus Hybrid Drive system by recovering kinetic energy (normally wasted as heat under braking and deceleration) as electrical energy for storage in the high performance battery.

Conventionally, there are two types of piston rings: compression and oil control. A piston assembly includes one or more compression rings that generate a seal between the outer surface of the piston and the wall of the cylinder to prevent high-pressure combustion gases and air from escaping the combustion chamber.

If compression continues after the reaction happens, it fights against the pressure generated by the reaction, wasting energy. This choice replaces the conventional engine valve train—valves, seats, guides, seals, springs, rockers, camshaft, bearings, timing chain, and oil lubrication—with a simple set of holes in the cylinder wall.

They aimed more smokestacks at us and dumped toxic waste in our neighborhoods while they paid off the cops and the justice system to get away with it. Oil, the second greatest contributor to atmospheric carbon dioxide, is already substantially depleted, and it is impractical to capture carbon dioxide emitted by vehicles.

The combination of harvesting whole forests and burning long-sequestered carbon sources such as coal or oil has impaired the Earth’s carbon cycle at an increasing pace. To ignore this potential is wasteful and foolish. It is wasteful and destructive to be burning this versatile molecule; we must stop.
