In their ongoing effort and hard work to make carbon capture a lot more inexpensive, scientists at the Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have developed a method to convert captured carbon dioxide (CO2) into methane, the main element of pure gasoline. By streamlining a longstanding system in which […]
Methane
The Environmental Safety Agency (EPA) is underestimating methane emissions from oil and gasoline generation in its once-a-year Stock of U.S. Greenhouse Gasoline Emissions and Sinks, in accordance to new investigation from the Harvard John A.
