The facility will utilise GreenIron's patented hydrogen-based reduction technology for fossil-free metal production. The collaboration centres on the integration of ABB's distributed control system (DCS). This system will manage the industrial process, integrating control, safety, and power management. GreenIron aims to use the DCS to enhance plant visibility, enabling data-driven optimisation and decision-making. 1-255633 Tue, 25 Feb 2025 13:48:00 +0200 Bizcommunity Science & Engineering Sweden https://www.bizcommunity.com/Article/1/693/233192.html When thinking about the impact of droughts on economic activity, the agricultural sector is the first that comes to mind. This sector is highly sensitive to weather variability, with the fall in crop production being the first direct damage of water shortage. 1-233192 Fri, 04 Nov 2022 07:55:00 +0200 Bizcommunity Science & Engineering Sweden https://www.bizcommunity.com/Article/1/646/226446.html Microalgae have been used by the Chinese for medicinal and nutritional purposes for thousands of years in the belief they could cure almost any health condition. The idea that microalgae have extraordinary healing powers isn't as far-fetched as some might think. Though the ancient Chinese believed the microalgae was responsible for health-improving benefits, we now know that it was in fact the biochemical compounds produced by these microscopic creatures that provided the "magic". 1-226446 Tue, 29 Mar 2022 10:03:00 +0200 Bizcommunity Science & Engineering Sweden https://www.bizcommunity.com/Article/1/648/226118.html Following its first sea trial using biofuel blended with very low sulphur fuel oil (VLSFO), Anglo American said it was able to reduce its carbon emissions by approximately 10%. 1-226118 Thu, 17 Mar 2022 10:24:00 +0200 Bizcommunity Science & Engineering Sweden https://www.bizcommunity.com/Article/1/704/224228.html Limiting climate change will require an unprecedented global movement to make low-carbon technologies the norm. COP26 - the UN climate conference held last November in Glasgow - showed that, unfortunately, the world is far from ready for such a movement. Many leaders still assume that reducing emissions and growing their countries' economies aren't compatible goals. 1-224228 Thu, 20 Jan 2022 06:07:00 +0200 Bizcommunity Science & Engineering Sweden https://www.bizcommunity.com/Article/1/693/223198.html It's easy to identify the biggest climate threats: coal and oil-fired power stations pouring emissions into the atmosphere, heavy industry smoking up the sky, and the seemingly endless traffic jams of petrol and diesel polluting vehicles. 1-223198 Thu, 09 Dec 2021 09:05:00 +0200 Bizcommunity Science & Engineering Sweden https://www.bizcommunity.com/Article/196/485/150818.html Volvo's fully autonomous truck is the first in the world to be tested in operations deep underground in the Kristineberg Mine. The self-driving truck is part of a development project aimed at improving the transport flow and safety in the mine. The truck will cover a distance of 7 kilometres, reaching 1,320 metres underground in the narrow mine tunnels. 1-150818 Wed, 14 Sep 2016 12:09:00 +0200 Bizcommunity Science & Engineering Sweden
