Secure robust carbon dioxide removal policy through credible certification

Communications Earth & Environment, 2023
Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) is a key element of any mitigation strategy aiming to achieve the long-term temperature goal of the Paris Agreement, as well as national net-zero and net-negative greenhouse gas emissions targets.

Nutritional and greenhouse gas impacts of removing animals from US agriculture [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2017
Significance US agriculture was modeled to determine impacts of removing farmed animals on food supply adequacy and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The modeled system without animals increased total food production (23%), altered foods available for domestic consumption, and decreased agricultural US GHGs (28%), but only reduced total

Sustainable scale-up of negative emissions technologies and practices: where to focus

Environmental Research Letters, 2023
Most climate change mitigation scenarios restricting global warming to 1.5 °C rely heavily on negative emissions technologies and practices (NETPs). Here we updated previous literature reviews and conducted an analysis to identify the most appealing ...

Greenhouse Gas Removal [PDF]

, 2017
The 2015 Paris Agreement called for a balance between sources of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions and their removal by 2100 to halt global temperature rise. This POSTnote explains why Greenhouse Gas Removal (GGR) techniques may be required to achieve this goal, outlines the benefits of and concerns about them, and considers policy options.

Nitrate removal in woodchip-based bioreactors and greenhouse gas formation tradeoffs between under- and over-treatment

Frontiers in Environmental Science
Woodchip-based media are increasingly used to remove excess nitrate from groundwater but data on nitrogen removal rates and greenhouse gas formation for different woodchip types, nitrogen loading and temperatures is limited.

Optimisation of Operational Parameter and Economic Analysis of Amine Based Acid Gas Capture Unit

Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2017
Electricity demand in Malaysia has been projected to escalate and this has led to additional coal-fired power plants being built. Combustion of coal has released greenhouse gases such as CO2 into the atmosphere.

Functionalizing Micro‐to‐Mesoscopic Electrode Architectures for Regulating Electron Transfer Behaviors in Electrocatalysis

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A systematic review is conducted to assess the influence of electrode architecture across micro‐ to mesoscopic length scales on electron‐transfer pathways in electrocatalysis. We discuss the structure‐activity relationships in electrocatalytic applications, including resource recovery and environmental remediation, and provide cost‐effective, efficient

Potential and costs required for methane removal to compete with BECCS as a mitigation option

Environmental Research Letters
Methane is the second most important anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) causing warming after carbon dioxide, and the emission reductions potentials are known to be limited due to the difficulty of abating agricultural methane.
