Circular economy principles are gaining momentum as more companies prioritize sustainable practices. Instead of traditional linear models where resources are extracted, manufactured into products, and ultimately disposed of, circular economy models prioritize resource recovery, waste reduction, and closed-loop systems. In this article, we will explore how companies are implementing circular economy principles. 1. Design for […]

The Future of Fuel: The Advantages and Challenges of Green Diesel
As concerns about climate change and air pollution continue to grow, the need for alternative fuels is becoming increasingly urgent. One such fuel that has been gaining attention is green diesel. Unlike traditional diesel fuel, which is derived from crude oil, green diesel is produced from renewable sources such as vegetable oils, animal fats, and […]
The Advantages of Using DME Fuel in Power Generation
Dimethyl ether (DME) is a colorless, non-toxic, and environmentally friendly alternative fuel that is becoming increasingly popular in power generation. It offers numerous benefits over traditional fuels such as diesel and gasoline. In this article, we will explore the advantages of using DME fuel in power generation. 1. Clean burning One of the most significant […]
When big solar is your next-door neighbor
It’s in my back yard–IIMBY. The acronym could apply to large-scale solar photovoltaic projects and their potential impact on local economic factors, including home sale prices. In general, the effects of IIMBY have not been widely studied. But new work from Berkeley Lab seeks to change that. The analysis, “Shedding light on large-scale solar impacts: […]
What is Green Diesel and How is it Produced?
Green diesel, also known as renewable diesel or hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO), is a type of advanced biofuel that can be produced from a variety of feedstocks, such as vegetable oils, animal fats, and even waste materials. Unlike traditional diesel fuel that is derived from crude oil, it is a renewable, low-carbon fuel that can […]
5 Common Waste Disposal Methods and Their Environmental Impacts
Waste disposal is an essential aspect of modern society, with the increasing amount of waste generated by humans posing a significant challenge to the environment. There are several methods of waste disposal, but each has its impact on the ecology. Here are five common waste disposal methods and their environmental impacts. Landfills Landfills are the […]
Circular Economy — The Future of Manufacturing
Many people believe that the circular economy is the future of manufacturing. And this economic model is designed to produce goods and services in an environmentally friendly way, by limiting the consumption and waste of resources—such as raw materials, water, and energy. It moves away from the conventional linear economy model, which emphasizes a take-make-consume-throw […]
Biofuels vs Fossil Fuels: A Comprehensive Comparison
Over the past decade, the energy sector has experienced a surge in interest in renewable energy sources as a means of dealing with climate change and encouraging sustainable development. In fact, Solar and wind energy have emerged as the most popular choices for homeowners, renters, and businesses, however—there’s another type of renewable energy that is […]
Exxon Gives Up on Much-Hyped Algae Biofuels
The oil giant is quitting an area of research it has long held up as part of a clean “energy future. It’s the end of an algal era: Exxon is backing out of a biofuel effort that the company has for years centered as part of its work in clean energy. Bloomberg reported Friday that […]
The Future of Transportation: Biofuels and Electric Vehicles
The future of transportation is about to undergo a radical transformation, and two major advancements are driving this change: biofuels and electric vehicles. Biofuels: The Energy Revolution We Need Can you imagine a world where you can fuel up your car with a cheaper and eco-friendlier option? That reality is closer than you think, thanks […]
