Fully integrated CO₂ mitigation strategy for an existing refinery: A case study in Colombia

The oil and gas industry is responsible for 6% of total global CO2 emissions, from exploration to downstream petrochemical production and account for another 50% when including the use of its products. Thus, this industry has a significant role in realising the target of net “zero” CO2 emissions by 2070, essential to limit global warming to 1.8 ...

Potential and challenges of low-carbon energy options: Comparative assessment of alternative fuels for the transport sector

The deployment of low-emission alternative fuels is crucial to decarbonise the transport sector. A number of alternatives like hydrogen or dimethyl ether/methanol synthesised using CO₂ as feedstock for fuel production (hereafter refer to “CO₂-based fuels”) have been proposed to combat climate change. However, the...
