1. solvents.. Offsite re-cycling was deemed to have many complexities that reduced the focus on this course of action.

These materials are useful, therefore, and we shouldn’t discount their potential in this area because of their historically carbon emission heavy synthesis.. Our goal, therefore, is to find ways to make the production of industrial plastics less reliant on fossil fuels and to reduce their carbon footprint as much as possible..The way we are focusing on achieving this is through carbon capture, which reduces emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) during synthesis by capturing emitted carbon dioxide and reusing it in other stages of the plastics manufacturing process..

Carbon Capture and Utilisation vs Carbon Capture and Storage.There are two main methods of carbon capture: carbon capture and utilisation (CCU) and carbon capture and storage (CCS).The difference between them is that CCS takes the CO. 2. ,.

and stores it to be sold on to whoever needs it later, whereas CCU reuses the collected CO. 2. almost immediately.There are benefits to both systems, but CCU has less potential for wasted carbon dioxide.

Both methods have been used at commercial scale with ‘undisputable technical and operational success for decades’ in the North Sea, North America, Australia and elsewhere.

Naturally, this isn’t a closed loop; feedstock will always need to be provided.The question now is, what are we going to do next?.

Construction technology: Building with agility and building agility in.In the Creative Technologies team at Bryden Wood, we’ve been working for some time with Highways England on smart motorways.

We developed our Rapid Engineering Model, or REM – a digital workflow that absorbs a huge range of data sets and design rules and generates a variety of outputs.These outputs – including virtual reality motorway driving – allow us to visualise and assess risks and opportunities of a smart motorway at the earliest planning stages.
