Assessment of price decomposition and distribution of fossil fuels

Raphaël Briguet

The use of fossil fuels becomes more and more controversial. Human health issues, environmental impacts, economical conflicts are direct consequences of these sources of energy. Nevertheless, they are deeply rooted in the society, making the transition to ...

Where is the money ? A decomposition of monetary flows behind fossil fuels

François Maréchal, Jonas Schnidrig, Xiang Li, Raphaël Briguet

Transition from fossils to renewables is leading to radical societal changes. Shifting the capital from fossils to renewables is commonly accompanied with political concerns, such as energy autonomy, domestic employment etc. Despite a decreasing trend in r ...

Lowering CO2 emissions in the Swiss transport sector

Philippe Thalmann, Marc Vielle

In Switzerland, transportation represents 41% of CO2 emissions from energy combustion (2016), a much higher share than in the European Union (EU) (28%) or even the USA (34%). While total Swiss CO2 emissions decreased by 10% between 1990 and 2016, CO2 emiss ...

Simulating the aqueous dissolution of petroleum emitted into the Gulf of Mexico during the 2010 Deepwater Horizon disaster

Jeremy Samuel Arey, Jonas Gros

What are the processes that entrapped more than 100 000 tons of emitted petroleum compounds in the deep waters of the Gulf of Mexico during the 2010 Deepwater Horizon disaster? We developed a thermodynamic model of the gas-liquid-water partitioning, densit ...

Simulating Gas–Liquid−Water Partitioning and Fluid Properties of Petroleum under Pressure: Implications for Deep-Sea Blowouts

Jeremy Samuel Arey, Jonas Gros

With the expansion of offshore petroleum extraction, validated models are needed to simulate the behaviors of petroleum compounds released in deep (>100 m) waters. We present a thermodynamic model of the densities, viscosities, and gas–liquid−water partiti ...
