According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), the aviation industry accounts for 2% of global carbon emissions. Total cumulative emissions reached approximately 800 million tons in 2022, and cumulative emissions are expected to reach approximately 1,750-2,000 million tons by 2050. The International Air Transport Association (IATA) has committ...

Increasing air pollution, urbanization, and industrialization severely degrade air quality, which worsens when natural calamities such as wildfires occur. The spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus (COVID-19 pandemic) and rising public awareness of the dangers of air pollution significantly accelerated the demand for air purification units in residential a...

Direct air capture (DAC) is gaining prominence as a critical negative-emissions solution for achieving global net-zero targets. With atmospheric CO₂ levels reaching approximately 420 ppm in 2025 and projections indicating a need for 1–10 gigatons of annual CO₂ removal by 2050, DAC offers a scalable pathway to mitigate climate change. Unlike convent...

Global eWaste generation reached 59.4 million tons in 2022 and will likely reach 74.7 million tons in 2030, recording a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.9% between 2022 and 2030. Frost & Sullivan estimates an average of 2 million metric tons of eWaste added yearly due to the explosive rise in EEE consumption over the last two decades. Lea...

Covering Power-to-Hydrogen, Power-to-Gas, Power-to-Liquid, Power-to-Chemicals, and Power-to-Mobility pathways, the study examines how renewable electricity can be transformed into hydr...

The global energy demand from the building and construction sector continues to rise, mainly due to rapid expansion of buildings’ floor area and global climate change. Ambitious, yet compelling, zero energy buildings (ZEB) are deemed to directly and effectively address the global issues on climate change and energy scarcity. As defined in this s...

The omnipresent influence of plastics in modern lifestyle has led to the production of about 300 million tons of fossil fuel-based plastics annually, according to the UN. About half of the total plastics produced till date are thrown away after a single use, and about 60% of the waste ends up in landfills or accumulates in the environment. It is pr...
