Опубликована: Авг. 31, 2024

The transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy is crucial for achieving environmental sustainability and carbon neutrality. research focuses on the global landscape of capacity, utilizing data 2024 report by International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA). was meticulously cleaned organized based countries sources, followed sorting in descending order performing Pareto analysis identify top 80% user countries. Graphical analyses, including bar pie charts, were employed alongside linear percentage calculations determine frequency distribution. findings reveal that 15 countries—China, United States, Brazil, India, Germany, Japan, Canada, Spain, France, Italy, Türkiye, Russia, Kingdom, Australia, Vietnam—account over (3,099,959 MW) world's total installed capacity. China leads with 1,453,701.25 MW, USA 387,548.59 Brazil 194,084.66 MW. Solar largest contributor, representing 36.67% hydropower at 32.76% wind 26.29%. Bioenergy, geothermal, marine contribute 3.88%, 0.38%, 0.01%, respectively. concentration capacity a few key sources underscores significant disparities adoption investment. emphasizes need tailored policies consider regional resource availability, socio-economic structures, geopolitical contexts ensure equitable sustainable development. Addressing these Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 7, which affordable clean all. This study provides valuable insights policymakers, highlighting importance diversified balanced approach neutrality sustainability.

Strategies for the Transformation of Waste Cooking Oils into High-Value Products: A Critical Review

Polymers, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 17(3), С. 368 - 368

Опубликована: Янв. 29, 2025

Waste cooking oils (WCOs) are generated globally from households, the hospitality industry, and other sectors. Presently, WCOs mainly employed as feedstock for biodiesel energy production, strongly depending on availability of WCOs, which often imported countries. The objective this review is to give an overall comprehensive panorama impacts, regulations, restrictions affecting their possible uses producing high-value products, such bio lubricants, surfactants, polymer additives, road construction solvents. Interestingly, many reviews reported in literature that address use but a topic missing. Published studies, industry reports, regulatory documents were examined identify trends, challenges, production statistics, environmental current production. data collected show hold immense potential renewable resources sustainable industrial applications line with global carbon neutrality goals circular economy principles. However, achieving shift requires addressing gaps, enhancing collection systems, optimizing conversion technologies. This underlines need collaborative efforts among policymakers, stakeholders, researchers maximize contribute development.

Waste Cooking Oils into High-Value Products: Where Is the Industry Going?

Polymers, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 17(7), С. 887 - 887

Опубликована: Март 26, 2025

Waste cooking oils (WCOs) are generated globally in significant amounts by various sectors including hospitality, households, and industrial operations. Many nations currently lack dedicated legislation for managing WCOs, creating a pressing environmental challenge. At present, WCOs primarily utilized industries as raw materials biodiesel production energy generation. However, their role second-generation is contingent on availability, often necessitating imports of either or from other countries. The European Union has emphasized the importance prioritizing biowaste high-value alternative products beyond to achieve carbon neutrality 2050. reviews have been published literature reporting potential WCO applications produce biolubricants, biosolvents, animal feed, asphalt additives, among others, however, no detailed analysis trends ever presented. Within this panorama, unlike existing that focus specific polymer classes derived work sought present comprehensive overview use polymeric fuel energy, providing general patents (or alive) last 10 years, together with which innovative being introduced sold market today.

Selection Path for Energy-Efficient Food Waste Management in Urban Areas: Scenario Analysis and Insights from Poland

Energies, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 18(2), С. 385 - 385

Опубликована: Янв. 17, 2025

The problem of food being wasted in households has become an essential challenge recent years. Food waste can be valorized accordance with the principles sustainable development, including as a source energy. This study analyses potential anaerobic fermentation, pyrolysis, ethanol incineration, and composting to treat waste, focusing on its energy yield. research considered two scenarios for generating Poland both near term (2030) long (2050). Scenarios were proposed regions different levels urbanization demographic trends. criteria selection technologies energy-efficient processing from identified, taking into account current state these technologies, their prospective changes, nature regions, trajectory generation, spatial generation rate, potential. Technologies like methane fermentation thermochemical methods should developed densely populated areas high rate. Among processes, fast pyrolysis will provide most significant benefits, followed by moderate biocarbonization—at similar levels. Incineration is placed between carbonization gasification. In less lower rates, combining substrates co-processing green considered. Biocarbonization systems integrated rural regions.
