Reduced Use of Fossil Fuels can Reduce Supply of Critical Resources

چکیده
Abstract Previous research has identified that climate change mitigation policies could increase demand for resources perceived as critical, because these are used in many renewable energy technologies. This study assesses how reducing the extraction and use of fossil fuels affect supply (i) elements jointly produced with (ii) a host is currently mainly fuel chains. Several critical which potential from current sources likely to decline. Some these, e.g. germanium vanadium, have uses low-carbon systems. Renewable transitions can thus simultaneously reduce elements. The problem greatest technology groups by-products more difficult recycle than host. Photovoltaic cell stands out one such group. Phasing both (i.e. primary flow) recoverable stock) materials involved groups. Further studies examine possibilities recovery rates, extract independently hosts geographical distribution by-product might if scaled back.

Biodesulfurization 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...
