Breakthrough that could reverse climate change with scaling investmentsjamesservices
1) In September, ClimeWorks launched the world's largest direct air capture plant in Iceland called Orca, which uses geothermal power to remove CO2 from the air and store it permanently underground.
2) Operating these plants in Iceland provides access to sustainable geothermal power, and the new plant under development could offset emissions equivalent to 40 million trees. Reaching net zero carbon will require massive investments in these solutions.
3) The managers of the Strategy Shares Halt Climate Change ETF recognized this opportunity and have contracted with ClimeWorks to remove CO2 from the atmosphere on their behalf, believing that investing in climate solutions can achieve strong financial returns while helping the planet.
With the increase in the Carbon emissions by the globe,there has been catastrophic events under climate change, there are people who don't believe this but it caused by trapping heat, and they also contribute to respiratory disease from smog and air pollution.
Extreme weather, food supply disruptions, and increased wild fires are other effects of climate change caused by green house gases.
Major problem raised by Tim Kruger is that CUTTING carbon emission is NOT enough to make climate change stop. There is a need to adopt negative emission systems like plant more trees that absorb carbon from the air and store it below the surface of the earth, while the other option is to build machines. These Machine's primary scope is to absorb carbondioxide from the atmosphere and develop a model that would be sustainable to store Caron as well. Also, these activities must be safe, economic and socially acceptable.

Recent Trends in Ship Design - 2013 discusses several trends in ship design over the past decade including waste heat recovery systems, scrubber systems, use of LNG as fuel, and ballast water management systems. The document also discusses new technologies like exhaust gas recirculation systems to reduce NOx emissions, X-bow hull designs for improved fuel efficiency, and the development of the world's first zero emission vessel powered by renewable energy. It concludes that while eco-friendly ship designs will be in increasing demand, investment in new technologies remains challenging due to tight financing in the current economic environment.
Dry ice blasting uses solid carbon dioxide particles accelerated in an air stream to clean surfaces. It produces less waste than other blasting methods and does not require cleaning up blasting media. Dry ice blasting is an excellent alternative to water, steam, and other blasting methods, with the potential to significantly impact business operations through improved cleaning and maintenance.
The document discusses eco-efficiency analysis conducted by BASF to compare the eco-efficiency of formate brines and bromide brines. The analysis found that formate brines were significantly more eco-efficient than bromide brines. Formate brines scored better on costs, lower toxicity potential, and lower emissions. In particular, bromide brines produced large amounts of toxic waste that required special treatment. While formate brines required more salt overall, they offered a more sustainable solution for the scenario of completing a well in the North Sea. BASF concluded that formate brines were the most eco-efficient option based on both environmental and economic factors.
Dry ice, the solid form of carbon dioxide, has many uses such as cooling, food preservation, and cleaning. It is very cold at -109°F and sublimates directly to a gas, making it useful for cooling without leaving liquid residue. While useful, dry ice can cause frostbite upon contact and lead to oxygen deprivation in confined spaces. It was first produced commercially in 1925 and is made by pressurizing and cooling liquid carbon dioxide.
Usually, maintenance of production equipment involves cleaning to ensure high quality of the end product. Cleaning personnel need to disassemble the equipment, transport it to a contained environment and clean it. After drying, they need to reassemble the equipment and reheat it before it can be reused for production. This is a tedious as well as time and labor intensive process. It also may lead to damage. Dry ice blasting is an industry cleanup system that is nonabrasive, non toxic and fully dry with no residual blast media cleanup. Eco Green Dry Ice is one of the leading dry ice suppliers in Abu Dhabi.
1. The document describes the design and development of the Watercone, a simple solar desalination device created by designer Stephan Augustin to provide clean drinking water.
2. After seeing the global water crisis, Augustin designed a two-piece solar still that could be manufactured cheaply at scale to desalinate seawater.
3. Through many prototypes and tests with manufacturers, Augustin developed a method of vacuum forming the cone from a single piece of polycarbonate that could efficiently produce clean water through condensation.
Developers in Dubai are using diaper technology to help landscaping bloom in the desert climate. Specifically, they are using superabsorbent polymers called hydrogels, which are the same materials used in disposable diapers, to retain moisture in the sandy soil. These hydrogels can absorb hundreds of times their weight in water and slowly release it to plants. At the Jumeira Islands development, the hydrogel soil additive is expected to cut water consumption by 50% and pay for itself within a year. However, some challenges remain as hydrogels can be impacted by certain soil conditions and their price remains prohibitive for widespread agricultural use.
Artificial snow is used on ski slopes, in movies, and for decorating. It is made through specialized "snow guns" that pump water just above its freezing point through nozzles with high pressure. This is accompanied by compressed air which helps lower the temperature, spreading the water into small droplets over a large area. Nucleation agents like clay particles or bacteria provide sites for the water droplets to freeze into snowflakes before falling to the ground, replicating the effect of natural snowfall. This artificial snow production allows ski resorts to have snow year-round.
A new batch of companies is pursuing advanced technologies to extract recycled rubber or carbon black from scrap tires on a commercial scale. Previous attempts at tire recycling plants using devulcanization or other technologies often failed to materialize. The most advanced current approach uses cryogenic milling to produce micronized rubber powder from tires, which can be incorporated at up to 40% in new rubber products. Other approaches focus on recovering carbon black through catalytic pyrolysis. Companies pursuing devulcanization or carbon black recovery argue their approaches can capture more value from scrap tires than current methods like incineration or use in playground surfaces. However, fully reversing vulcanization or applying these technologies at large commercial scale remains challenging.

1. Stephan Augustin designed a simple, inexpensive solar-powered desalination device called the Watercone to provide clean water for those without access.
2. He experimented with different shapes and materials, going through many failures before developing a prototype using a vacuum tool to mold the cone from one piece of polycarbonate.
3. In 2003, a company began mass producing and distributing the Watercone, using awards and press coverage to raise awareness about the global water crisis and the innovative product.
Dry Ice cleaning eliminates tools damage in two ways. First, dry ice does not erode or put on away the targeted surface as usual grit media and even wire brushes do.
Dry ice blasting uses dry ice particles projected at high speeds to clean surfaces without causing damage. It can be used on energized equipment since dry ice is non-conductive. Unlike other cleaning methods, dry ice leaves no residue since it sublimates directly from solid to gas. This makes it suitable for cleaning equipment in place, reducing downtime compared to other cleaning methods that require disassembly. The rapid expansion of dry ice particles upon impact also helps dislodge contaminants from surfaces.

oulson Ice Blast, a British
Columbia startup that launched
this February, recently
commenced mass production of
a new technology using blasted ice for
industrial cleaning. It calls its mobile ice-
blasting machine the IceStorm90 because
it produces what looks like a storm of ice
pellets that can be focused into a stream
as narrow as two inches wide. Although
it operates along lines similar to earlier
technologies that blast a medium such as
pressurized water, sand, sodium bicar-
bonate, or dry ice pellets onto a soiled or
contaminated surface, Coulson Ice Blast
vice president Foster Coulson says ice
blasting represents a major advance in
environmentally friendly cleaning.
“As far as I know, we’re the only ones
doing it, and we’ve spent a lot of time
and energy filing new patents to protect
the technology. It’s something unique and
special, and we’re very excited to bring
it to market and really try to advance
the state of industrial cleaning — which
hasn’t really seen any innovation in the
last 70 years since dry ice blasting tech-
nology was invented in 1947. Over the
same time period, environmental regu-
lations have significantly increased, yet
innovations in technology have been
lacking.”
Coulson says ice blasting technology
exceeds almost every environmental
regulation that has been set. “It involves
no added chemicals, no environmental
contaminants, negligible airborne contam-
inants, and minimal residual water waste.
It’s pretty much the most environmentally
friendly way you can clean.”
How it works
“On average, our system uses 95 per cent
less water than a pressure washer,” he
specifies. “By contrast, pressure washing
varies with the technology, but it can use
up to about 1,200 U.S. gallons of water
per hour. Depending on what you’re
blasting, trying to treat and dispose of
that amount of water can be very costly.”
He explains that the environmental
advantages of cleaning with ice derive
partly from the fact that it is the only
medium that can exist during blasting
in all three phases of matter: solid, liquid
and gas.
“It hits the surface it’s cleaning
as a solid, then half of it turns into a
gas which evaporates, and the other
half stays in a liquid form which pulls
airborne contaminants down to the
ground instead of releasing them into
the atmosphere.”
By contrast, he says other forms of
chemical, abrasive and dry ice blasting
often produce hazardous airborne
contaminants, so much so that workers
operating these forms of blasting typi-
cally require artificial respiration or
breathing protection devices.
He says the ice blasting process
creates relatively little residual waste.
“On average, blasting at three pounds a
minute you’ll have around 10 gallons an
hour of water residual waste.”
In terms of media costs, ice is also
cheaper than, say, dry ice blasting
pellets, which cost from 90 cents up
to two dollars per pound. According to
Coulson, ice costs less than one cent per
pound to make or 12 cents per pound
when purchased.
Icy advantages
Coulson says other factors that make ice
attractive as a cleaning medium are that
it is natural and readily available. “For
other chemical processes and dry ice
blasting, you need to buy artificial media
in the form of premade chemicals or dry
ice pellets. But ice is natural and bare-
bones basic. If you wanted to, you could
make it inexpensively yourself from any
type of water source — tap water, for
example — and store it indefinitely in
a freezer. Contractors often store ice in

300-, 400-, or 500-pound totes where
it lasts for four or five days.” As alter-
natives to making ice yourself, Coulson
Ice Blast also sells ice-making machines
and offers ice distribution through its
partnership with Reddy Ice (U.S.A.), an
ice manufacturing company.
He adds that ice is one of the only
cleaning media that can turn corners
during blasting. “If you needed a
cleaning agent that can travel, say,
along a 30-foot hose with S-curves and
a 90-degree corner, few media could
do the job, because most of them lose
energy travelling around corners and get
stuck. But ice would be able to clean
perfectly throughout the whole length
of the hose.”
Successes in the industry
Ice blasting is suitable for a range of
industries including aerospace, nuclear,
petrochemical, plastics, power genera-
tion, printing, and pulp and paper.
One example is the AFCO Denso/
Bosch plant in South Carolina, which
uses the equipment to deburr copper
motor parts. “Since 1995, AFCO has
continuously operated an Ice Blast
machine to deburr copper motor arma-
ture faces for fuel pumps. The use of
Ice Blast to deburr has been crucial
to producing our high quality fuel
pumps...for the North American auto-
motive industry,” wrote AFCO project
engineer Jack Engram in a statement.
“Ice Blast technology continues to be a
cost-effective solution for our deburring
and precision cleaning needs. Aside
from normal maintenance, the Ice Blast
equipment has performed reliably for the
last 20 years. The ability to rely on this
machine eases our minds in production
because we are confident that the Ice
Blast will achieve the necessary standard
of clean every time.”
Meanwhile, the British Columbian
branch of Disaster Kleenup International
(DKI), a North American disaster resto-
ration contractor with estimated annual
revenues in excess of $1.7 billion uses
Coulson Ice Blast equipment to remove
lead paint from concrete.
Rich Canadian roots
Coulson Ice Blast grew out of a family
business started by Coulson’s grandfa-
ther, Cliff, when he launched a small
logging company in Port Alberni on
Vancouver Island in 1960. Coulson’s
father, Wayne, subsequently grew the
company into The Coulson Group, a
conglomerate whose other activities have
included manufacturing wood products
and aviation. Within the last two years,
they sold off the logging and lumber
operations to concentrate on aviation
and ice blasting. While Wayne continues
as president and CEO of The Coulson
Group, Coulson’s brother Britton is vice
president of the aviation division, which
involves overhauling aircraft compo-
nents and aerial fire suppression.
The natural surroundings of Port
Alberni yield such local attractions as
salmon and sport fishing, provincial
parks, hiking trails, mountain climbing,
Cathedral Grove (an old-growth forest
of towering Douglas fir trees, some
over 800 years old), and Della Falls
(Canada’s highest waterfall). Given this
superb environment, it is not surprising
that environmental friendliness is a key
value underlying The Coulson Group
operations.
Its association with ice blasting equip-
ment began in 2012, when it wanted to
remove paint from a Martin Mars aircraft
it had acquired and repaint the plane in
their fleet colours: red and white. The
paint removal task raised technical prob-
lems, however, since the Martin Mars
can only take off on water, it had to stay
situated beside a lake. This complica-
tion ruled out pressure washing, which
requires more water than was available at
the plane’s site. Sand blasting was equally
impractical, since the Martin Mars is the
world’s largest flying water bomber, too
big to permit the full containment that
sand blasting requires.
Instead, an engineer at The Coulson
Group suggested and built an ice-
blasting machine using technology he
learned at a previous job at Universal Ice
Blast, an American company that manu-
factured ice blasting equipment until it
went bankrupt in 2001. The Coulson
Group was so pleased with the results
that they tracked down the former
owner of Universal Ice Blast, purchased
the technology from him, and have been
refining it and planning the future of
Coulson Ice Blast ever since. PPC
Vice president Foster Coulson says the system uses 95% less water than a pressure washer.
The environmental advantages of cleaning
with ice derive partly from the fact that it
is the only medium that can exist during
blasting in all three phases of matter: solid,
liquid and gas.
