A team of researchers, led by Professor Gavin Shaddick at the University of Exeter, has shown that, despite global efforts to improve air quality, half of the world’s population is exposed to increasing air pollution. An open-access paper on the research is published in the journal Climate and Atmospheric Science. (a)Map

Researchers at the University of Michigan have mapped the annual flow of steel in the US, with the goal of achieving a detailed understanding of the flow to target increased material efficiency and the development of the circular economy. The steel industry accounts for 30% of global industrial greenhouse gas emissions (GHG).

Some strategies to reduce emissions include running the engine highly dilute, with excess air or with recirculated exhaust gases as part of the combustion charge. Injection of liquid fuels largely determines fuel-air mixture formation, which governs the detailed evolution of chemical kinetics, combustion, and emissions. Description.
