The energy-intensive aspect of the mineral processing industry and its dependence on fossil fuels present substantial hurdles in minimising greenhouse gas emissions. contributes significantly to global emissions; thus, adopting cutting-edge technologies practices is required mitigate detrimental impact environment. Multifaceted challenges such as technological, regulatory aspects, social environmental implications prospects for innovation improvement, which could culminate comprehensive strategies effective management. This study examines green mining initiatives that have a positive economic well trends sustainable provide avenues reduce emissions enhance sustainability through improved energy efficiency transportation A broader basic implementation carbon capture utilisation requires significant investment development. practicality mineralisation dioxide by converting gaseous into stable carbonate minerals circular economy advantages. On other hand, market holds advantages sale credits by-products. further emphasises importance coordinated efforts across industry, government, communities overcome existing barriers accomplish emission reductions.

The pressing need to mitigate climate change and drastically reduce environmental pollution loss of biodiversity has precipitated a so-called energy transition aimed at the decarbonization defossilization chemical industry. goal is carbon-neutral (net-zero) society driven by sustainable circular bio-based economy relying on renewable biomass as raw material. It will involve use green carbon, defined carbon derived from terrestrial or aquatic organic waste, including dioxide methane emissions. also necessitate accompanying hydrogen that generated electrolysis water using source energy, e.g. solar, wind nuclear. Ninety per cent industrial chemicals produced in oil refineries are monomers constitute precursors large variety polymers, many which plastics. Primary examples latter polyolefins such polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride polystyrene. Polyolefins extremely difficult recycle back olefin discarded polyolefin plastics generally end up plastic waste responsible for degradation our natural habitat. By contrast, biomass, lignocellulose contained forestry residues agricultural constitutes feedstock production corresponding polymers. could be same currently but more attractive long-term alternative produce polyesters polyamides can recycled original monomers: paradigm shift truly road net-zero This article part discussion meeting issue 'Green industry future'.

In this paper, a new strategy is applied to synthesize safe-to-use one-part (OP) alkali-activated binder via controlling the activation rate of blast furnace slag (BFS) and fly ash (FA). The proposed involved creating reactive powder with high capacity interact water, similar Portland cement (PC). This was achieved by partially activating BFS/FA in presence which makes activated paste non-workable form, followed immediate drying at 80°C for 24 hours pulverizing produce powder. impacts sodium hydroxide (NaOH) concentration water/raw material (W/RMP) on performance prepared OP-activated relevant hardened pastes are addressed. Different contents hazardous lead glass sludge (LGS) include 5, 10, 15 wt% were incorporated during preparation process evaluate potential applicability synthesized powders immobilization (Pb). obtained results revealed that, regardless NaOH W/RMP ratio, all showed capability yielding materials appropriate mechanical properties. However, adjusting 10 ratio 0.1 synthesis has resulted formation highest compressive strength values ages. Moreover, mixture exhibited comparable those conventional two-part (TP) same concentrations. presents affinity restrict free Pb inside mixtures through its transformation from soluble insoluble form.

The scope of this work is to assess the economic competitivity optimized CO2 capture and utilization process (CCU) for e-methanol production with respect sequestration (CCS) in three locations (southern Italy, northern Germany, northeastern Egypt) two scenarios (short- long-term) cost renewable energy technologies. final aim determine optimal sizing operation units system by minimizing total costs be sustained a cement producer. At methanol selling price 550 €/t, which consistent current market price, CCS economically more competitive than CCU short-term scenario all locations. In long-term scenario, due reduced technologies, becomes preferable option large majority assessed cases. breakeven Italy was found increase from 384 €/t 570 if low-cost hydrogen storage not available H2 stored pressurized vessels (as alternative caverns). 542 778 €/t.
