Research Projects for graduate students at the Center for Negative Carbon Emissions
ثبت نشده
چکیده
A central activity of the Center for Negative Carbon Emissions is the demonstration of direct air capture technologies with machinery that can operate in open environments. Initially a major focus of the Center is on demonstrating air capture based on the humidity swing. However, work at the Center over time will consider other approaches as well. The demonstration requires a large engineering effort that is supported by a basic science approach and a general modeling and assessment effort.

A New Model for Estimating Carbon Emissions from LTL Shipments
In brief Calculating carbon emissions for less than truckload (LTL) is more challenging than for other modes of transportation. Each LTL truck combines a wide mix of freight from many shippers, with varying origin-destination pairs. Without visibility to the details about individual shipments on that truck, accurate carbon emission estimates at the shipment level can be difficult to obtain. Gra...
متن کاملAsymmetric Impact of Oil Prices, Foreign Direct Investment and Economic Growth on Carbon Emissions in Iran: Evidence from the NARDL Approach
The amount of environmental pollution can be caused by several factors. These factors are not in the same position in terms of importance and impact, and not all of them can necessarily be seen together in one place or time. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to investigate the asymmetric impact of oil prices, foreign direct investment and economic growth on carbon emissions in Iran d...
متن کاملEstimation and modeling of gas emissions in municipal landfill (Case study: Landfill of Jiroft City)
One of the major factors, contributing to the emission of greenhouse gases in the environment is generation of pollutant gases in municipal landfills. As for the design and building of a gas collecting system, it is necessary to properly estimate the amount and type of the landfill emissions. By means of LandGEM model, this study predicts the amount and type of the landfill gases, produced for ...
