A Spatiotemporal Environmental Sustainability Assessment Model for Deep and Large-scale Open-pit Copper Mines
Value addition for who? Challenges to local participation in downstream critical mineral ventures in Zambia
Introducing Mat-dp model tools
Machine learning for gap-filling in greenhouse gas emissions databases
Reducing uncertainties in greenhouse gas emissions from chemical production
With industrialization, economic growth, and increasing demand for minerals, mining raw materials from deep and low-grade deposits is increasing, highlighting the need to evaluate the environmental impacts of...
New paper discuss the challenges to local value addition in critical minerals in Zambia.
New paper from Karla Cervantes Barrón and Jonathan Cullen: Using open-source tools to project bulk and critical material demand and assess implications for low-carbon energy and transport systems:...
New paper evaluates the potential of machine learning methods to automate the completion of GHG datasets.
Uncertainties in greenhouse gas emissions estimates for petrochemical production have lacked quantification globally, impacting emissions reporting and decarbonization policymaking. Here we analyze cradle-to-gate emissions of 81 chemicals at...
Plastics are controversial due to their production from fossil fuels, emissions during production and disposal, potential toxicity, and leakage to the environment. In light of these concerns, calls...
Wind power supply chains are evolving as markets expand to reach climate goals. With the largest installed wind power capacity globally, China must deal with increasing composite turbine...
The current decarbonization strategy for the steel and cement industries is inherently dependent on the build-out of infrastructure, including for CO2 transport and storage, renewable electricity, and green hydrogen....
Plastics are increasingly used in the automotive sector due to their mechanical properties and light weight. However, the automotive plastic supply chain is characterised by pollution, resource depletion,...
The latest available high-level top-down analysis shows that the embodied carbon of UK construction in 2018 was 43 MtCO2e, of which 80% came from materials and on-site activities. In this...
