Downdraft Devices for Negative Emissions—Quantification Study and Environmental Implication
Greenhouse Gases: Science and Technology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Methane (CH4) is a potent greenhouse gas with a global warming potential far exceeding that of CO2 over short time horizons. Its removal from the atmosphere remains challenging due to its low ambient concentration and chemical stability. This study explores downdraft energy towers (DETs) as an innovative CH4 mitigation technology that enhances

Biological Seawater Desalination
More than two billion people worldwide lack access to safe, clean drinking water, and this number is likely to increase due to population growth and rapidly diminishing freshwater supplies. Current seawater desalination methods can effectively provide freshwater and meet the growing demand for this resource.
