Engineering a Sustainable Future: The Role of Supply Chain Decarbonisation

Ahead of COP28, the engineering sector is recognising the pivotal role of supply chain decarbonisation in mitigating climate change. Graham Hoare, CEO of the Manufacturing Technology Centre (MTC), emphasises the necessity of robust supply chains in expediting decarbonisation efforts. The UK’s commitment to green energy, specifically in nuclear, green hydrogen, and renewables, is crucial for both achieving net zero goals and fostering the growth of a green economy. Here’s a closer look at how we can accelerate supply chain decarbonisation.

The steel industry is a significant contributor to global carbon emissions, accounting for around 7% of all emissions. As such, decarbonising steel production is crucial for achieving global climate goals and reducing the impact of human activity on the environment. There are several ways to decarbonise the steel industry, including the use of alternative raw materials, such as recycled steel and iron ore, as well as the adoption of new technologies and processes that reduce carbon emissions during the steel-making process. In this article, we explore some of the challenges, benefits and processes of decarbonising steel production.

Electric boat building has become big business in the maritime sector with the latest vessel, Thor, using a thorium molten salt reactor. At first glance, it somewhat resembles a vessel you’d expect a James Bond villain to have. Unveiled by Norwegian maritime solutions company, Ulstein, this new electric boat concept has tremendous potential to bring us zero-emission cruises and other marine applications. With everything they’ve put on board, it can be used for research, rescue, and replenishing missions among others.

Whatever your beliefs around global warming, CO2 emissions are real and have been linked to climate change. Carbon capture is part of the solution and while it’s not a new concept, researchers from the University of Delaware have developed a new method that can remove 99% of CO2 emissions from the air. Let’s take a closer look at what carbon capture is, how the process works and what the new method entails.

The shipping industry is vital for world trade as 90% of goods are transported by sea. However, it is also one of the most carbon-intensive industries along with aviation that contributes to climate change due to its reliance on fossil fuels. This brings us to the decarbonisation of the maritime sector but it is easier said than done. In this article, discover three incredibly innovative projects that could set the tone for decarbonising global shipping.
