Cement, a fundamental building block of modern construction, has long been integral to the development of infrastructure worldwide. Today, concrete made from cement is the most consumed material after water. However, its vital role comes at a significant environmental cost. The production of traditional cement, also known as Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) is highly energy […]

In line with the Paris Agreement’s targets of reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 45% by 2030 and reaching net zero emissions by 2050, companies across the world are looking for ways to reduce their emissions. There are some seeing this trend as an emerging market and are working to monetize other companies’ carbon emissions. […]

One of the largest problems affecting the chemical industry in recent years has been the pressure to transition toward clean energy and reduce carbon emissions. More than 20 of the firms in the Chemical & Engineering News (C&EN) Global Top 50 have made investments recently in sustainability or currently have sustainability projects in development. At […]

Last year, in June 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) could not force carbon dioxide emitters in the power sector to switch to clean energy. Rather, the agency could mandate emissions cuts based on technology that could be deployed “within the fenceline” of the power facilities. Earlier this month, […]

Many of these industries are being built from the ground up, offering years of growth for compressors and related equipment […]

The global human population reached 8.0 billion in November 2022. According to the U.N., it is expected to further expand 0.7% annually to 9.7 billion in 2050. Keeping pace with the population growth is the global GDP growth expected to grow 2.2% annually through 2050. These key drivers will result in significant growth in construction […]

President Joe Biden kicked off the decarbonization race by signing two monumental pieces of legislation: the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) and the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), which designated $370 billion in new funding for green infrastructure. In response, the European Commission recently announced the Green Deal Industrial Plan (GDIP). The plan will divert […]

At the 2023 ADI Forum, Jeff Hammad, CCO of Golden Pass LNG, discussed technical innovations in LNG development, emphasizing the challenges of integrating new technologies due to regulatory constraints. Golden Pass LNG had faced permitting limitations that discouraged facility modifications, delaying carbon capture and storage (CCS) adoption until post-construction to avoid lengthy regulatory reviews. However, […]
