They also demonstrated that the production of biodiesel using the lipids extracted from sewage sludge (SS) could be economically feasible because of its remarkably high yield of oil and low cost, as compared to conventional biodiesel feedstocks.

The method can be applied to other electrode materials, too, making energy-dense, low-cost battery materials a realistic possibility. There are huge challenges associated with using low-cost,micrometre-sized Si source materials. —Yi Cui. Here we introduce a method to encapsulate Si microparticles (∼1–3 µm).

This proprietary novel gas fermentation technology converts the carbon monoxide-containing waste gases emitted by blast furnace, coke oven and BOF (basic oxygen furnace) operations into low-cost ethanol and high-value chemicals. So here our isobutene would allow us to integrate this very cheap fossil component into the fuel.

They used nickel and aluminium as materials for the cathode and anode respectively, with sodium aluminium tetrachloride (NaAlCl 4 ) as the molten-salt electrolyte—all relatively cheap, earth-abundant materials. This electrolyte has a melting point of around 157ºC, and remains solid over a large spectrum of room temperatures. “We

And oil only seems cheap. We’ve already decided we’re going to fix already-built houses, offices and factories that waste energy. We’re about to enact the “Home Star” and “Building Star” programs—putting people to work on “Cash for Caulkers” retrofits that will make buildings more comfortable and cut owners’ fuel costs.

Then came the rapid ascent of production in China and with it a flood of low-cost magnesium. Based on silicothermic reduction of magnesium oxide, the Pidgeon process is cheap but has a high energy demand: 366 MJ/kg Mg , compared to other common metals. By the early 2000s production in France, Italy and Norway had ended.

The opportunities for private-parties to buy and sell emissions allowances, and to purchase any allowances auctioned by the state, lie behind cap and trade’s potential to achieve emissions reductions at low cost to the overall economy.

To deal with this major special waste problem has to my knowledge never ever been brought to the attention of the readers of any paper around the world. Batteries are highly special toxic waste and cannot be dropped on the average dump site, so who is going to pay to get rid of this problem?

As another panelist pointed out, “ The New York Times is well-equipped to write the article about how Stimulus Funds have been wasted ”. In general, the sponsor’s goal is to use as much cheap debt financing and as little equity as possible to complete the deal. It is not how can we get low cost capital to take more risk.

You waste a little bit of silicon, but silicon’s pretty cheap. Not only were development costs absorbed in company overhead, but there was no markup to pay, as there would have been inf the chips had been built by another company. When the design of the Commodore 64 began, the overriding goals were simplicity and low cost.
