Studying the driving factors and contributions of carbon emissions peak volume and time is essential for reducing the cumulative carbon emissions in developing countries with rapid economic development and increasing carbon emissions. Taking Jilin Province as a case study, four scenarios were set in this paper respectively: Business as Usual Scenario (BAU), Energy-Saving Scenario (ESS), Energy-...

7 The UK whole-wheat bioethanol and straw and DDGS based combined heat and power 8 (CHP) generation systems were assessed for environmental sustainability using a range of 9 impact categories or characterisations (IC): cumulative primary fossil energy (CPE), land use, 10 life cycle global warming potential over 100 years (GWP100), acidification potential (AP), 11 eutrophication potential (EP) a...

Herein a big Fe-C-Ca cycle, clarifying the basic element flows and energy flows in modern carbon-intensive industries including the metallurgical industry and the cement industry, was proposed for the first time in the contexts of emission reduction and iron ore degradation nowadays. This big cycle was focused on three industrial elements of Fe, C and Ca and thus it mainly comprised three inter...
