Decarbonizing the fertilizers sector: an alternative pathway for urea and nitric acid production
François Maréchal, Daniel Alexander Florez Orrego, Meire Ellen Gorete Ribeiro Domingos
In order to alleviate the environmental impact that nitrogen fertilizers production is responsible for, several efforts have been addressed to incentivize the partial or total decarbonization of the supply chains of ammonia and its derivatives. The decarbo ...
2024Spatial Modeling for Building Design Evaluation: from Visual Landscape Quality Assessment to Devaluation Risk Estimation
Zoning reform is a crucial tool for cities to adapt to contemporary challenges. However, its implementation remains challenging. Property owners, with a vested interest in the value of their neighborhoods, are sensitive to local developments and the potent ...
EPFL2024Process-informed adsorbent design guidelines for direct air capture
Berend Smit, Susana Garcia Lopez, Fergus Robert Lloyd Mcilwaine
Direct air capture using solid adsorbents is a proven technology critical to reducing our net greenhouse gas emissions to zero and beyond. Currently, academic research into the technology mainly focuses on the devel-opment of new adsorbents. However, there ...
ELSEVIER SCIENCE SA2022ClimateBench v1.0: A Benchmark for Data-Driven Climate Projections
Many different emission pathways exist that are compatible with the Paris climate agreement, and many more are possible that miss that target. While some of the most complex Earth System Models have simulated a small selection of Shared Socioeconomic Pathw ...
AMER GEOPHYSICAL UNION2022Predicting the impact of climate change on the glacier-fed streams microbiome
Tom Ian Battin, Hannes Markus Peter, Susheel Bhanu Busi, Grégoire Marie Octave Edouard Michoud, Leïla Ezzat, Massimo Bourquin, Andrew Lean Robison, Tyler Joe Kohler, Stylianos Fodelianakis
Glacier shrinkage is among the most conspicuous impacts of climate change with numerous effects on downstream ecosystems. Lying at the glacier forefront, glacier-fed streams represent important headwaters in high-mountain regions across the world. Owing to ...
2022Reaching Paris Agreement Goal through CDR/DAC Development: A Compact OR Model
Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau, Alain Haurie
A compact operations research (OR) model is proposed to analyse the prospects of meeting the Paris Agreement targets when direct air capture technologies can be used or not. The main features of the model are (i) the representation of the economy and energ ...
2021The Quest for Genes Involved in Adaptation to Climate Change in Ruminant Livestock
Simple Summary:& nbsp;After domestication in specific regions, livestock followed human migrations and colonized the whole world. During this population expansion, human and natural selection, together with demographic events, molded the livestock genome l ...
2021Potential Integration of Chinese and European Emissions Trading Market: Welfare Distribution Analysis
Marc Vielle, Sigit Pria Perdana, Ru Li
Central to the aims of the Paris Agreement, a multilateral coordinated action through integrated carbon markets has been a practical bottom up option for effective and efficient mitigation. This paper quantifies the welfare effects of potential integration ...
2020Low emission scenario for Europe powered by lifestyle changes
Decarbonizing economic activities requires simultaneous behavioural and technological changes. At the household level, actions are straightforward, use public transit and stay off dairy and meat. The objective here is to estimate the overall climate benefi ...
2020Disruption mitigation efficiency and scaling with thermal energy fraction on ASDEX Upgrade
Basil Duval, Umar Sheikh, Gergely Papp
Disruption mitigation remains a critical and unresolved issue for ITER. Measurement uncertainties preventing quantification of a system's efficacy remains a significant hurdle in producing and validating a viable disruption mitigation system. This study ad ...
