On the Sustainability of Lithium‐Ion Battery‐Powered Electric Vehicles: Critical Review, Analysis, and Perspectives

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This review and analysis evaluate the benefits of LIB‐powered EVs on emission reduction of both CO2 and air pollutants. The raw materials of LIBs face low supply risks as the cathodes switch to low‐cobalt scenarios. Proper management of EV charging can mitigate its negative impact and even contribute to the stability and resilience of the power grid ...

Influence of iodine value on combustion and NOx emission characteristics of a DI diesel engine

open access: yes, 2010
Biodiesel is a renewable fuel that has been shown to reduce many exhaust emissions, except oxides of nitrogen (NOx), in diesel engine cars. This is of special concern in inner urban areas that are subject to strict environmental regulations, such as EURO

Toward a Paradigm Shift in Low‐Temperature SCR Catalyst Design: Defect Engineering and Data‐Driven Integration

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This work systematically reviews the key factors influencing the performance of low‐temperature NH3‐SCR. The mechanism and challenges of defect engineering strategies, such as oxygen vacancies, heteroatom doping, crystal facet exposure, and surface reconstruction, in controlling both activity and selectivity were analyzed.

Steering Industrial Decarbonisation: Explaining OECD Policy Variation

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ongoing rise in CO2 emissions driven by energy‐intensive industries highlights the urgent need for targeted policy interventions, with national strategies playing a crucial role in the low‐carbon transition. However, the factors that shape the ambition of industrial decarbonisation policies remain poorly understood.

Does uncertainty justify intensity emission caps? [PDF]

open access: yes
Environmental policies often set ‘‘relative'' or ‘‘intensity'' emission caps, i.e. emission limits proportional to the polluting firm's output. One of the arguments put forth in favour of relative caps is based on the uncertainty on business-as-usual ...

Life cycle assessment of a microfluidic electrolytic cell using Bi–Sn nanoparticle catalyst and an ionic liquid electrolyte

open access: yesEnvironmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.
Abstract The electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) to produce formic acid is a sustainable and crucial method for combating greenhouse gas emissions and addressing global warming. This study focuses on conducting a life cycle assessment of formic acid synthesis using microfluidic electrolytic cells with Bi–Sn catalyst and [EMIM][BF4] (1 ...

Environmental Thermoeconomic Performance Analysis of Gas Steam Combined Cycle With Different Inlet Air Cooling Technologies

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This study establishes an environmental thermoeconomic cost model to investigate the impact of two IAC technologies on the performance of a GSCC from three aspects of energy, economy, and environment. Under arid climate conditions, the SEC technology demonstrates superior performance in terms of cost‐effectiveness and environmental impact.

Prediction of metal pm emission in rail tracks for condition monitoring application

open access: yes
Exposure to particulate material (PM) is a major health concern in megacities across the world which use trains as a primary public transport. PM emissions caused by railway traffic have hardly been investigated in the past, due to their obviously minor ...

Renewable Energies in Kazakhstan: Current Status, Potential, Challenges, and Opportunities

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Kazakhstan has strong renewable energy potential, with wind as the leading resource and solar and other sources offering additional opportunities. Key challenges include limited infrastructure, investment needs, and grid‐related technical issues. Despite these barriers, renewables can boost economic diversification, enhance energy security, create jobs,
