Science: Three-megadalton complex of methanogenic electron-bifurcating and CO2-fixing enzymes
Methanogenic archaea use complex enzyme systems to survive in anoxic environments with limited energy. A key mechanism for energy conservation is electron bifurcation, a reaction that "splits" the energy of a pair of electrons, thus making one electron more reductive at the cost of the other. In a new study, researchers from the Max-Planck Institute for Terrestrial Microbiology and the ...

A material flow analysis of wood and paper in Cape Town: is there potential to redirect flows in formal and informal sectors to foster use as a renewable resource?
The City of Cape Town has recently drafted an energy strategy and an integrated waste management plan. The creative implementation of these strategies requires knowledge of potential sources of energy and flows of waste. Inventories of requisite data are sparse. Wood and paper are interesting cases in point, as they are significant contributors to waste and potential energy carriers. A better ...

Carbon offsets from organic waste conversion projects
The Climate Act ion Reserve (the Reserve) has long had a protocol to give credit for the capture and destruction of methane emissions from organic waste in landfills, but they have now opened up the possibility of credits for projects that prevent that waste from entering landfills in the first place. In October 2009, the Reserve adopted the Organic Waste Digestion Project Protocol, covering both ...

Co-processing Waste in Cement Industry
The problem of waste is one of the most urgent on the world agenda, According to the World Bank, the world generates 2.01 billion tonnes of waste every year, with at least 33 percent of that—extremely conservatively—not managed in an environmentally safe manner. Therefore, the most important task is to clear the waste and create a system that will allow separating waste, competently ...
