Energy of rotation: angular momentum, inertia and flywheels?
…a square function of its radius. So for example a steel disc of 1m diameter and 420 MPa of yield strength cannot be spun faster than 7,000 rpm before it…
Transformer costs: the economics?
…of the cost of transformer manufacturing. Materials comprise c40% of the costs of transformer manufacturing, especially electrical steel, copper and insulating mineral oils. The data-file shows how the mass of…
Industrial heat: the myth of electrify everything?
…five separate case studies in the steel, cement, glass, petrochemical and paper industries, which exceed 15% of global CO2. Only a CO2 price is likely to maximize efficiency gains across…
Metals and materials: strength and temperature resistance?

CO2 capture: a cost curve?
…that are simply being vented at present, such as from the ethanol or LNG industries, but the ultimate running-room from this opportunity set is <200MTpa. Blue hydrogen, steel and cement…
Aluminium producers: company screen?
…being 60% more resistive. It is also 65% lighter than steel. The global aluminium market stood at 68MTpa in 2022, marginal costs of production are modeled around $3/kg, and CO2…
Topsoe: autothermal reforming technology?
…reforming technology, for the production of blue hydrogen, which matters increasingly as blue ammonia and blue steel value chains start booming in the US. Topsoe’s ATR design, called SynCor, has…
