That is three times the amount of greenhouse gases that a country like Germany emits. At the same time, the limitations of the method become clear: emissions from the combustion of fossil raw materials such as oil and gas are almost 20 times greater. There is no way around reducing greenhouse gases, despite improved waste disposal. * Lawyers | Basic Law | Constitutional Court Joint appeal...

The highlight: the process is quick, economically profitable and also renders the toxic heavy metals in the red mud harmless. Steel and aluminum are among the most important metal raw materials in the modern world. But their production is anything but environmentally and climate-friendly: the steel industry is responsible for around seven percent of global CO2 emissions, the largest...

Millions of tons of ammonia, which requires more than one percent of all energy produced worldwide. In addition, the production of ammonia has so far been inextricably linked to the extraction of fossil raw materials, because the required hydrogen is produced from coal or natural gas using steam reforming. The Haber-Bosch process releases 450 million tons of carbon dioxide every year...

Hydrogen must be viewed critically because it cannot be produced in sufficient quantities in the Federal Republic of Germany, so it has to be imported in large quantities from the global south. However, energy and raw material consumption would have to be significantly reduced in order to achieve the targeted climate goals and to postpone some of the coming disasters, tipping points and collapses or...

An Icelandic company has been working on the technology for over a decade. [...] Methanol is an alcohol and the simplest liquid hydrocarbon. It already serves as an important raw material in the chemical industry. However, methanol has so far usually been produced from natural gas or - especially in China - from coal. It is therefore a fossil raw material. [...] The...

a crucial factor. Now the USA has apparently accidentally stumbled upon a possibly gigantic deposit of the metal. If this discovery proves true, the USA will have a huge raw material advantage in the race for resources for the future of electromobility.

Lithium is sufficient for decades. Lithium production through geothermal power plants would be possible without supply drying up. Great potential: In the Upper Rhine Graben, the extraction of the sought-after battery raw material lithium is also worthwhile and sustainable in the long term. Even if the lithium-rich deep water is pumped out for decades, there is no risk of the supply of raw materials being exhausted, as researchers...
