Emissions Control Catalysis
The important advances achieved over the past years in all technological directions (industry, energy, and health) contributing to human well-being are unfortunately, in many cases, accompanied by a threat to the environment, with photochemical smog, stratospheric ozone depletion, acid rain, global warming, and finally climate change being the most well-known major issues. These are the results of a variety of pollutants emitted through these human activities. The indications show that we are already at a tipping point that might lead to non-linear and sudden environmental change on a global scale. Aiming to tackle these adverse effects in an attempt to mitigate any damage that has already occurred and to ensure that we are heading toward a cleaner (green) and sustainable future, scientists around the world are developing tools and techniques to understand, monitor, protect, and improve the environment. Emissions control catalysis is continuously advancing, providing novel, multifunctional, and optimally promoted using a variety of methods, nano-structured catalytic materials, and strategies (e.g., energy chemicals recycling, cyclic economy) that enable us to effectively control emissions, either of mobile or stationary sources, improving the quality of air (outdoor and indoor) and water and the energy economy. Representative cases include the abatement and/or recycling of CO2, CO, NOx, N2O, NH3, CH4, higher hydrocarbons, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), particulate matter, and specific industrial emissions (e.g., SOx, H2S, dioxins aromatics, and biogas). The "Emissions Control Catalysis" Special Issue has succeeded in collecting 22 high-quality contributions, included in this MDPI open access book, covering recent research progress in a variety of fields relevant to the above topics and/or applications, mainly on: (i) NOx catalytic reduction from cars (i.e., TWC) and industry (SCR) emissions; (ii) CO, CH4, and other hydrocarbons removal, and (iii) CO2 capture/recirculation combining emissions control with added-value chemicals production.

Agriculture Toward Net Zero Emissions
Agriculture Toward Net Zero Emissions explores how agriculture has historically contributed to carbon emissions and then takes the reader forward, offering insights into an integrated approach to reducing those emissions toward the COP26 goal.The dual challenge of increasing production to meet population and nutrition food demands while reducing the traditional emissions generated by production practices is significant.It requires understanding the foundation of current practices and then revising those underlying principles to reflect the resources and greater insights of today. Presented in three parts, this book provides an overview of the current state of the science, explores the development of policies and plans to improve carbon management, and provides examples of technology and agroecosystem management practices.It includes the latest updates in carbon neutral farming, carbon and energy management, and addresses the knowledge gap between input management, livestock management and agroecosystem management. Advancing agroecosystem science through a roadmap for improving capacity, Agriculture Toward Net Zero Emissions is a valuable resource for those seeking to develop and apply new agricultural best practices.

Is solar energy renewable?
Yes, solar energy is renewable because it is derived from the sun, which is a virtually limitless source of energy. The sun's energy is constantly being replenished and will continue to do so for billions of years. This makes solar energy a sustainable and renewable source of power that can be harnessed for electricity generation and other applications.

What are emissions?
Emissions are the release of gases, particles, and other substances into the atmosphere. These substances can come from a variety of sources, including vehicles, industrial processes, and natural events. Emissions can have a range of environmental and health impacts, including contributing to air pollution, climate change, and respiratory problems. Efforts to reduce emissions often focus on improving energy efficiency, transitioning to cleaner fuels, and implementing pollution control technologies.
-
Can exhaust emissions from cars be converted into energy?
Yes, exhaust emissions from cars can be converted into energy through a process called exhaust gas recirculation (EGR). EGR systems redirect a portion of the exhaust gases back into the engine's intake system, where they can be re-burned to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions. Additionally, technologies such as exhaust gas heat recovery systems can capture the heat energy from the exhaust gases and convert it into usable energy for the vehicle. These methods help to reduce the environmental impact of car emissions while also improving the overall efficiency of the vehicle.
-
Are speaker emissions harmful?
Speaker emissions, such as sound waves and electromagnetic fields, are generally not harmful to humans at normal levels. However, prolonged exposure to loud noise from speakers can lead to hearing damage. Additionally, some individuals may be sensitive to electromagnetic fields emitted by speakers, but the research on the health effects of these emissions is inconclusive. It is important to use speakers in moderation and at safe distances to minimize any potential risks.

Emissions Trading : Principles and Practice
First published in 1985, Emissions Trading was a comprehensive review of the first large-scale attempt to use economic incentives in environmental policy in the U.S. and of the empirical and theoretical research on which this approach is based.Since its publication it has consistently been one of the most widely cited works in the tradable permits literature.The second edition of this classic study of pollution reform considers how the use of transferable permits to control pollution has evolved, looks at how these programs have been implemented in the U.S. and internationally, and offers an objective evaluation of the resulting successes, failures, and lessons learned over the last twenty-five years.

What are spider emissions?
Spider emissions refer to the silk that spiders produce for various purposes such as building webs, capturing prey, or creating egg sacs. This silk is made up of proteins and is produced by specialized glands in the spider's abdomen. The silk is then extruded through spinnerets located at the rear of the spider's body, allowing them to create intricate webs or use it for other functions.
-
Are airplane emissions toxic?
Airplane emissions primarily consist of carbon dioxide, water vapor, nitrogen oxides, and other pollutants. While these emissions are not necessarily toxic in the same way as some industrial pollutants, they do contribute to air pollution and climate change. The impact of airplane emissions on human health can vary depending on factors such as proximity to airports and the concentration of pollutants in the air. Overall, while airplane emissions are not considered toxic in the traditional sense, they do have negative environmental and health effects.
-
Do diesel emissions smell strong?
Yes, diesel emissions can have a strong and distinct smell. The odor is often described as pungent, acrid, or even nauseating. This smell is due to the presence of various chemical compounds in diesel exhaust, such as sulfur compounds and nitrogen oxides, which can create a strong and unpleasant odor. Additionally, the smell of diesel emissions can be particularly noticeable in areas with high levels of traffic or industrial activity.

What are Germany's CO2 emissions?
Germany's CO2 emissions are among the highest in the world, with the country being the seventh-largest emitter of CO2 globally. In 2019, Germany emitted around 805 million metric tons of CO2, primarily from the burning of fossil fuels for energy production, transportation, and industrial processes. The German government has committed to reducing its CO2 emissions significantly in the coming years, with the goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2045. This will require a major shift towards renewable energy sources and the implementation of more sustainable practices across various sectors of the economy.
