Flash Ironmaking Hits Combustion Wall Amid Steel’s Decarbonization Shift

10 min read

My recent update of my global steel projection through 2100, driven by China’s declining demand for cement and infrastructure construction, has refocused my attention on pathways for steel decarbonization. The dynamics of steel consumption and emissions are closely linked to building and infrastructure development, sectors traditionally responsible for about half … [continued]

Creating Green Hydrogen with Urine

4 min read

Researchers have developed two unique energy-efficient and cost-effective systems that use urea found in urine and wastewater to generate hydrogen. The unique systems reveal new pathways to economically generate ‘green’ hydrogen, a sustainable and renewable energy source, and the potential to remediate nitrogenous waste in aquatic environments. Typically, hydrogen is … [continued]

Which Fuels Should the EU Back for Shipping?

2 min read

Strategic analysis of maritime fuels for the EU Homegrown renewable hydrogen-based fuels can decarbonise the shipping sector, reinforce Europe’s energy sovereignty and provide thousands of new jobs. When deciding which fuels to back, the EU should focus on three criteria: Sustainable — ensure real emissions reductions across the entire lifecycle, … [continued]
