Closing the carbon cycle through rational use of carbon-based fuels
In this paper, a brief overview is presented of natural gas as a fuel resource with subsequent carbon capture and re-use as a means to facilitate reduction and eventual elimination of man-made carbon emissions. A particular focus is shale gas and, to a lesser extent, methane hydrates, with the former believed to provide the most reasonable alternative as a transitional fuel toward a low-carbon ...
متن کاملClosing the carbon cycle
Green leaves: Every plant on the planet has the ability to convert carbon dioxide into organic molecules using solar energy. Technology is still struggling to match that ability. (Photo: Michael Gross.) The Sun sends us much more energy than we need, but we have yet to learn how to capture, store, and distribute it efficiently. And while we’re learning, we continue to deplete solar energy that ...
متن کاملThe Cost of Displacing Fossil Fuels: Some Evidence from Texas
Although technological progress can alter the relative costs of different energy sources, fossil fuels inevitably will be displaced as depletion raises their costs and makes them uncompetitive. They may be displaced sooner if they are taxed to internalize negative externalities. Currently, wind generation or nuclear power, supplemented by bulk electricity storage, are the most feasible alternat...
متن کاملthe ecological foot print of carbon dioxide for fossil fuels in the shiraz
in the recent years, increasing of green house gases, degradation of environment, deforestation alongside with the limitation and decreasing of ecological foot print of the earth for supplementation of human needs are the main problems of the world. the carbon dioxide gas as a main factor of world climate change, carry out the 60 percent of the global heating or greenhouse effect. the main sour...
متن کاملBiodesulfurization of fossil fuels.
Biotechnological techniques enabling the specific removal of sulfur from fossil fuels have been developed. In the past three years there have been important advances in the elucidation of the mechanisms of biodesulfurization; some of the most significant relate to the role of a flavin reductase, DszD, in the enzymology of desulfurization, and to the use of new tools that enable enzyme enhanceme...
