CO2 emissions from maritime transport operations represent a substantial part of the total greenhouse gas emission. Vessels are designed with better energy efficiency. Minimizing CO2 emission in maritime operations plays an important role in supply chain decarbonisation. This paper reviews the initiatives on slow steaming operations towards the reduction of carbon emission. It investigates the ...

This study empirically examines the effect of economic development on carbon emissions and revisits environmental Kuznets curve in Suzhou, China. The made use Gross Domestic Product Per Capita (GDPPC) China as an indicator it depicts entire developmental ecosystem that indicates level production activities total energy consumption. Bearing this mind, authors postulate directly increases through...

Energy is one of the most important inputs in production. Energy usage and energy diffusion of fossil fuels in process of production cause greenhouse gases (CO2) emission and destruction of environment. According to the importance of issues like energy usage and economic growth, this paper, concerning the effects of proximity, evaluates the effects of energy usage and economic growth on emissio...

1. introduction the concept of sustainable travel and transport is embedded in the broader concept of sustainable development, which relates to maintaining or improving the quality of human life and variety of social opportunities within the natural constraints and limits of the global ecosystem. the organization for economic cooperation and development (2004) defines an environmentally sustain...

the optimization model for evaluating regional and global effects of greenhouse gases reductionpolicies named merge is an actively usable tool for studying some aspects of the problem of climate change.it is first of all destined for the quantitative estimation of emission trajectories and results of applyingabatement measures. in the paper, the emphasis is on the adaptation of the integrated a...

In the view of long-term comprehensive development, the concept of low-carbon economy has long been a concern. In this paper, we build a pure energy-economic system and explore the exact influencing factors in the investment allocation of high-carbon and low-carbon energy with the purpose of mitigating carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. The dynamic analysis shows that the model that we built is ...

Due to the increasing use of Cloud computing services and the amount of energy used by data centers, there is a growing interest in reducing energy consumption and carbon footprint of data centers. Cloud data centers use virtualization technology to host multiple virtual machines (VMs) on a single physical server. By applying efficient VM placement algorithms, Cloud providers are able to enhanc...

Two process models are used to convert carbon dioxide into methanol. These processes have been extended and improved using Aspen Plus simulator software. Both processes are found in the CO2 correction system. In this machine, the desired synthesis gas is produced in a flexible configuration. At the same time, the conversion of CO2 to hydrogen via a copper-based catalyst ha...
