For chemical recycling of plastic wastes to be viable, chemical products generated in recycling need to find markets. A network model of the U.S. chemical manufacturing industry was...
Penny explains C-THRU's work to reveal the complex connections of the petrochemical network in our monthly researcher meeting.
1/3 of related GHG emissions could be reduced by increasing recycling capacity and reducing demand.
New study assesses the emissions reductions of actions to improve the efficiency of existing ammonia production processes.
Ammonia is a key chemical produced at large volumes to meet vast global demands for products such as fertilisers. Its production underpins the modern agricultural sector and also...
C-THRU’s regular seminars continued in June with a presentation on “The Economic Superorganism” from Dr. Carey King. The goal for C-THRU series of presentations is to build further...
To discuss detailed C-THRU research updates, further the team’s knowledge, and promote collaboration, the C-THRU researchers have been holding regular seminars. Dr André Cabrera Serrenho (Demand for chemical products)...
The plastic industry is dependent on fossil fuels in various ways that result in strong “carbon lock-ins” throughout the value chain and large and growing CO2 emissions. The industry...
Scientists and economists often seek to understand the linkages among natural resources consumption and the cost of resources in tandem with the growth rate, size, and structure of...
“The IPCC was created to provide policymakers with regular scientific assessments on climate change, its implications and potential future risks, as well as to put forward adaptation and mitigation...
