Nature Communications, 2019 AbstractClimate change represents an existential, global threat to humanity, yet its delocalized nature complicates climate action. Here, the authors propose retrofitting air conditioning units as integrated, scalable, and renewable-powered devices capable of decentralized CO2 conversion and energy democratization.

Supplying Synthetic Crude Oil from Canadian Oil Sands: A Comparative Study of the Costs and CO2 Emissions of Mining and In-Situ Recovery [PDF]
, 2010 High crude oil prices and the eventual decline of conventional oil production raise the issue of alternative fuels such as non-conventional oil. The paper describes a simple probabilistic model of the costs of synthetic crude oil (SCO) produced from ...

A Crude Crude Oil Calculation [PDF]
Economic Synopses, 2004 Akey macroeconomic development during 2003 and 2004 has been the higher price of crude oil. Analysts have attributed the higher price to several possible sources, including supply disruptions in key oil-producing countries, demand increases from a global economy performing better than expected, especially in Asia, and a risk premium associated with an ...

Microorganisms and Crude Oil [PDF]
, 2012 Crude oil is one of the most important energetic resources in the world. It is used as raw material in numerous industries, including the refinery-petrochemical industry, where crude oil is refined through various technological processes into consumer products such as gasoline, oils, paraffin oils, lubricants, asphalt, domestic fuel oil, vaseline, and ...

Interactions between Zooplankton and Crude Oil: Toxic Effects and Bioaccumulation of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons [PDF]
, 2013 We conducted ship-, shore- and laboratory-based crude oil exposure experiments to investigate (1) the effects of crude oil (Louisiana light sweet oil) on survival and bioaccumulation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in mesozooplankton ...

, 2012 Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) or Electron spin resonance (ESR) is a high resolution spectroscopy that consists in energy absorption of microwave, for electron spin, in the presence of a magnetic field (Ikeya, 1993). As the name itself suggests, EPR is applied in samples containing some paramagnetic species or used as an investigative method, to

Kinetic parameters for nutrient enhanced crude oil biodegradation in intertidal marine sediments [PDF]
, 2014 Availability of inorganic nutrients, particularly nitrogen and phosphorous, is often a primary control on crude oil hydrocarbon degradation in marine systems. Many studies have empirically determined optimum levels of inorganic N and P for stimulation of

Understanding Crude Oil Prices [PDF]
The Energy Journal, 2008 This paper examines the factors responsible for changes in crude oil prices. The paper reviews the statistical behavior of oil prices, relates this to the predictions of theory, and looks in detail at key features of petroleum demand and supply. Topics discussed include the role of commodity speculation, OPEC, and resource depletion.
