In COP 26, the international community reaffirmed its ambitious targets to reduce carbon emission mitigate climate change according Paris Agreement. To achieve that target, a proper combination of energy efficiency and integration renewables should be applied ensure smooth transition balances increasing demand environmental commitments. Natural gas can work as fuel between polluting fossil fuel...

For achieving net-zero emissions by 2050, countries worldwide are committed to setting ambitious carbon reduction targets. In 2022, the officially published report, “Taiwan’s Pathway Net-Zero Emissions in 2050”, sets out a comprehensive transition plan based on four fundamental strategies: energy, industrial, lifestyle, and social. This will likely entail an infrastructure transformation all se...

homogenous charge compression ignition (hcci) is a mode of combustion in ic engines in which premixed fuel and air are ignited spontaneously. there is a belief that hcci engines have a great potential to improve fuel consumption and reduce nox emissions. in this study, a single zone, zero dimensional, thermo-kinetic model has been developed and a computer program with matlab software is used to...

Nitrogen from fertilisers and crop residues can be lost as nitrous oxide (N2O), a greenhouse gas that causes an increase in global warming and also depletes stratospheric ozone. Nitrous oxide emissions, soil chemical status, temperature and N2O concentration in the soil atmosphere were measured in a ®eld experiment on soil compaction in loam and sandy loam (cambisols) soils in south-east Scotla...

Electricity sector is among the main carbon emissions contributors. This sector has the potential to reduce its carbon emissions through producing electric energy from zero emitting facilities and through the optimization of the consumption in a way to better accommodate low carbon emissions. Hydrogen society per se combined with smart grids, as this is analyzed in this manuscript, can present ...

The experiences of the largest corporation in the world and those of a start-up company show how companies can profitably reduce greenhouse gas emissions in their supply chains. The operations management literature suggests additional opportunities to profitably reduce emissions in existing supply chains, and provides guidance for expanding the capacity of new “zero emission” supply chains. The...

The target of zero emissions sets a new standard for industry and industrial policy. Industrial policy in the twenty-first century must aim to achieve energy intensive industries. Sectors such as steel, cement, chemicals have so far largely been sheltered from effects climate A major shift is needed, contemporary that mainly protects strategies transform industry. For this purpose, we draw on w...

Rapid industrialization and urbanization have increased the demand for both energy mobility services across globe, with accompanying increases in greenhouse gas emissions. This short paper analyzes strategic measures abatement of CO 2 emissions from oil refinery operations. A case study involving a large conversion shows that use post-combustion carbon capture storage (CCS) may only be practica...
