Formación de hidrocarburos aromáticos policíclicos (HAP) y hollín en la pirólisis de hidrocarburos
En la actualidad, cerca del 82 % del consumo energético español proviene de la combustión depetróleo, carbón y otros combustibles sólidos. Durante este proceso de conversión térmica, yen condiciones reductoras, cantidades considerables de hollín pueden formarse junto concenizas o compuestos que, en algunas ocasiones, resultan de considerable riesgo ...

Enforcing environmental law in the Amazon
Abstract This article identifies the underlying obstacles to enforcement of laws against environmental crimes such as illegal logging, mining and ranching. With four departments (provinces) from Colombia as case studies, it assesses enforcement of the country's main environmental law, Law 2111, which is one of Latin America's strongest. The article has

Abstract The Cretaceous–Eocene island arc of Hispaniola is currently shortened between the Bahamas carbonate platform to the north and the thickened crust of the Caribbean Large Igneous Province (CLIP) to the south. Within this transpressional setting, the 15–22‐km‐thick, ∼100‐km‐wide Beata Ridge (BR), the thickest portion of the CLIP, acts as a ...

Energy development reveals blind spots for ecosystem conservation in the Amazon Basin
Energy development – as manifested by the proliferation of hydroelectric dams and increased oil and gas exploration – is a driver of change in Amazonian ecosystems. However, prevailing approaches to Amazonian ecosystem conservation that focus on terrestrial protected areas and Indigenous territories do not offer sufficient insurance against the risks ...

When the Regulatory State Meets Populism: Regulatory Agencies in Mexico

Satellite‐Observed Changes in Mexico's Offshore Gas Flaring Activity Linked to Oil/Gas Regulations
Abstract Gas flaring is a commonly used practice in the oil and gas sector that leads to key air pollutant and greenhouse gas emissions. Here we use multipollutant (NO2, SO2) satellite observations from 2005 to 2017 to quantify gas flaring activity in Mexico's offshore production cluster, which produces ~50–70% of the country's oil and is among the ...
