Mobile Pyrolysis Systems for Plastic Waste: A Self-Sustaining Approach to Recycling and Decentralized Energy
Abstract Addressing the European Union’s dual imperatives of achieving energy independence under the REPowerEU plan while managing persistent plastic pollution, this paper evaluates a mobile, continuous-feed pyrolysis system. The
We have previously described (1) the misallocation of energy development resources into renewables like solar and wind that are popular with climate change ideologues but have significant disadvantages. The latest dubious
Like clockwork, we receive the annual Statistical Review of World Energy relevant to energy geopolitics every June. From 1954 until 2022, BP volunteered to compile this data. Initially, the review
Opening new North Sea oil fields clashes with the Paris Climate Agreement, according to a new report published by UCL academics. The authors suggest this would not keep warming below
Thanks to their zero marginal cost and priority for injection, intermittent renewable energies (EnRi) enjoy the greatest possible freedom to produce according to the whims of the weather, without concern
A team of European researchers explores how to bring artificial neural networks closer to the energy efficiency of biological brains, according to a study published in the Journal of Statistical
Growing crops to produce biomethane produces three times more CO2 than using natural gas, according to a study published in Nature Climate Change. There has been a rapid increase in
A team of scientists from Swansea University, UK, developed a tool to identify the optimal photovoltaic materials to both maximise crop growth and generate solar power, according to a study
