An improved correlation to determine minimum miscibility pressure of CO2–oil system

open access: yesGreen Energy & Environment, 2020
An accurate and reliable estimation of minimum miscibility pressure (MMP) of CO2–oil system is a critical task for the design and implementation of CO2 miscible displacement process.

Spatiotemporal patterns of the fossil-fuel CO2 signal in central Europe: results from a high-resolution atmospheric transport model [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2017
The emission of CO2 from the burning of fossil fuel is a prime determinant of variations in atmospheric CO2. Here, we simulate this fossil-fuel signal together with the natural and background components with a regional high-resolution atmospheric ...

The study of CO2 absorption intensification using porous media material in aqueous AMP solution

open access: yesPetroleum, 2018
In this work, the performance of CO2 absorption into aqueous 2-amino-2-methyl-propanol (AMP) solution was investigated by measuring the amount of CO2 in the liquid phase during CO2 absorption process to identify initial CO2 absorption rate.

Nuclear Power: a Hedge against Uncertain Gas and Carbon Prices? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
High fossil fuel prices have rekindled interest in nuclear power. This paper identifies specific nuclear characteristics making it unattractive to merchant generators in liberalised electricity markets, and argues that non-fossil fuel technologies have ...

The impact of fossil fuel combustion on children's health and the associated losses of human capital

open access: yesGlobal Transitions, 2023
To more fully assess the far-reaching effects of fossil fuel combustion on humanity, it is necessary to gain an in-depth understanding of the full impact of fossil fuels on human health and lifetime potential.

A time series analysis of fossil fuel consumption in Sub-Saharan Africa: evidence from Ghana, Kenya and South Africa

open access: yesInternational Journal of Sustainable Energy Planning and Management, 2018
This study investigated the determinants of the rising fossil fuel consumption for three Sub-Saharan African countries - Ghana, Kenya and South Africa - to help manage the rising consumption fossil fuel consumption.

What drives norm success? Evidence from anti–fossil fuel campaigns [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Why do some international norms succeed, whereas others fail? We argue that norm campaigns are more likely to succeed when the actions they prescribe are framed as a solution to salient problems that potential adopters face, even if different from the ...

Non-deforestation fire vs. fossil fuel combustion: the source of CO2 emissions affects the global carbon cycle and climate responses [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2016
Non-deforestation fire – i.e., fire that is typically followed by the recovery of natural vegetation – is arguably the most influential disturbance in terrestrial ecosystems, thereby playing a major role in carbon exchanges and affecting many

The Oxymoron of Carbon Dioxide Removal: Escaping Carbon Lock-In and yet Perpetuating the Fossil Status Quo?

open access: yesFrontiers in Climate, 2021
There appears to be a paradox in the debate over carbon dioxide removal (CDR) technologies. On the one hand, CDR is recognised as a crucial technical option to offset residual carbon emissions from fossil fuel use, so that it can help a transition to the

Development of an efficient 3AP-DMEA-butanol-water phase change absorbent for CO_2 capture

open access: yes能源环境保护
Controlling CO_2 emissions from low-concentration sources like coal-fired power plants and steel mills is crucial for achieving "carbon neutrality" . Amine-based CO_2 capture technology is a leading contender for industrial application.
