…with fluorocarbons, which do not deplete the ozone layer, but do have very high global warming potentials. For example, R-134a, which is tetrafluoroethane, is a 1,430x more potent greenhouse gas…
…oil, gas and coal is bridged on page 7 (in underlying units, and common-currency TWH), and the investment needed to deliver the transition is quantified on page 8 (in $bn…
…acetate production occurs via the relatively complex pathway shown below. Natural gas liquids are fractionated into ethane. Ethane is cracked into ethylene. Natural gas is also converted into methanol. Then…
…cart Gasoline is an excellent transportation fuel. A high energy density of 36 kWh/gal yields a high vehicle range. A low flash point of -40ºC means it is easy to…
…also aggregated data into the recipients of ARPA funding to develop super-alloys for next-gen gas turbines, which will boost maximum turbine inlet temperatures from 1,600C to 1,800C, which would improve…
Super-alloys have exceptionally high strength and temperature resistance. They help to enable 6GTpa of decarbonization, across efficient gas turbines, jet engines (whether fueled by oil, hydrogen or e-fuels), vehicle parts,…
…copper!) (page 6). DRI+EAF steel. What are the costs and CO2 intensity factors? We have modeled the DRI pathway converting iron ore (Fe2O3) into direct reduced iron using a syngas…
…due to underinvestment in gas. Depressingly, progress towards net zero slowed down in the past five years. Reaching net zero requires vast acceleration in renewables, infrastructure, nuclear, gas and nature….
…patents, we think methane is most likely to be sourced from landfill gas. And the process screens as carbon negative relative to a baseline alternative where the landfill gas or…
…kg/ton of CO2, alongside exhaust gas purity parameters) and their expected amine emissions rates (in ppm of exhaust gas, with or without a water wash unit). Further details on MHI’s…
