Industrial Decarbonization
Decarbonizing Natural Gas: A Bridge to a Greener Future
Decarbonizing Natural Gas and Net-Zero Emissions Natural gas has long been hailed as a cleaner alternative to coal and oil. However, its use still produces greenhouse gas emissions, contributing to climate change. To achieve net-zero emissions, we must find ways to decarbonize natural gas. This article explores various strategies for achieving this goal, highlighting their […]
Decarbonizing Industrial Processes: Moving Towards a Low-Carbon Future
The modern way of life and economic growth is heavily dependent on products from three primary heavy industries: chemicals, steel, and cement. While these industries produce diverse products, they are energy-intensive and generate massive amounts of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gasses. Reducing greenhouse gas emissions from heavy industries is necessary to avoid the devastating […]
Methane Pyrolysis
On-Site Pyrolysis and Renewable Energy
Technically pyrolysis is defined as the thermal degradation of material at a high temperature in the absence of oxygen gas. The resulting byproducts of this degradation are condensate (water/tar) and non-condensable gasses. If the feedstock is biomass, then the byproducts can also include biochar. The proportions for each of these byproducts mainly depend on the […]
Hydrogen Vs. Natural Gas: Can Hydrogen Live Up to The Hype?
With the world still reliant on fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, and natural gas, to meet its ever-increasing energy requirements, there is a strong push to find and use renewable energy sources, like Hydrogen, to displace fossil fuels. Hydrogen (specifically green Hydrogen) has been a viable candidate for decades. However, will the future run […]
