New food habits and dietary changes have affected the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere, since food system emissions are around 1/3 of the global GHG emissions, representing 34% of total CO2 equivalents in 2015 [3]. Each increased step in the food chain has an added impact on the degradatio...
In terms of environmental conservation, biogas is a renewable source of energy and is more sustainable than traditional fossil fuels because it lowers the amount of greenhouse gas emissions that enter into the atmosphere. The biogas yield resulting from anaerobic digestion depends on a biomass matrix...
Therefore, the two processes, PCC from stationary sources and DAC, should co-exist in the near future. In the short term, PCC should be implemented at large-scale stationary sources to limit emissions, but this does not decrease the high levels of CO2 already present in the atmosphere, ...
This study was done by differing the time of contact for adsorption from 1 to 12 min while keeping all other factors constant. At first, the removal percentage was increase at rapid rate in first 6 min due to the abundance of available empty spaces. After that, the rate of adsorption slow...
Industrialisation expressed as industry percentage of GDP (% of GDP) comes from the statistical database of the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD). The environmental policy stringency index (EPS) is a proxy of environmental regulations. The EPS index is the degree to ...
Mountain uplift and erosion have regulated the balance of carbon between Earth’s interior and atmosphere, where prior focus has been placed on the role of silicate mineral weathering in CO2 drawdown and its contribution to the stability of Earth’s clim
An analogy of almost 1:1 in moles, similar to the initial structure. Here, it has to be noted that blank samples do not have Si and have a low percentage of S (less than 0.1%) and N (6.93% on average) due to the preparation method of the graphene. The group of samples modified...
However, to evaluate the thermal stability of the DES used in this work, we performed a thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) under a nitrogen atmosphere using a Mettler Toledo TGA/DSC instrument. The results obtained are provided as supporting material (Figure A1 in Appendix). This analysis indicates...
Figure3: CO2 absorption cross-sections in the atmosphere per mole. To make progress to locate from exactly where IR is emitted to space we need a model of the atmosphere. For this we assume a standard lapse rate of 6.5C/km up to the tropopause at 11 km, then stationary temperatures thr...
When it's all put together, per the IPCC, the red columns should be gaining in height as the years pass due to the accumulation of CO2 emissions in the atmosphere grows. Taller columns means that the ever increasing amounts of emissions are causing an even greater temperature change. ...
