ENVIRONMENTAL  REMEDIATION  FUELS

Energy reliability, is an essential part of everyday contemporary life. Its generation however, remains a matter of concern, in the aspects surrounding the environmental impact incurred as a result of the processing of our planet's energy resources. Until a sharp transition is made to self-sustaining renewable sources, most industries, especially the solar sector, remain heavily reliant on energy provided by fossil fuel sources, to develop their technologies. 

Furthermore, to accomodate for fuel deficits, we do not necessarily need to augment fuel volumes but rather, enhance fuel performance via an increased energy density.

With the millions of barrels of oil spilled into the environment annually, we suggest a cut back in the drill for fossil fuels and an a focus on the reforming and upgrade of the millions of barrels oil collected from spills as well as recycling of waste oil, so that we have cleaner ecosystem, when fossil fuels are no longer an energy necessity.

Oil is useful for many purposes but when uncontrollably released into the environment, the consequences can be disturbingly disastrous.

Cleanup and recovery from oil spills is a challenging matter, because the process of ecosystem regeneration depends on a multitude of  factors such as:

• The chemical architecture of hydrocarbon oil spilled

• Temperature of the water, which affects the evaporation and biodegradation of the oil

• The environmental nature of the shorelines and beaches the spill spreads on

Oil spills can take extensive periods of time and even years to clean up. Not all components of oils are limited to just being greasy or wax-like in nature. This also includes oils spilled from household energy generating applications, automobiles and commercial platforms. Some elements are highly volatile, carcinogenic, while some contain radioactive elements. It is of crucial importance, that these oil spills are mitigated in an expedited manner, to avoid irreversible damage to ecosystem constituents, whose absence may cause a negative tilt in the balance of marine, avian life quality and coral reefs. It goes without saying, that an imbalance in one ecosystem will always create a cascade of events that  negatively impact the surrounding environment and seep into human life safety via the respiratory distress, the food chain and subsequently the economic health of several nations.

MITIGATION

Planning expedited and efficient spill response ahead of time can significantly minimise the negative consequences of an oil spill on the environment or avoid them all together. 

When oil spills into the environment, its composition is often altered in a manner which makes it more challenging to process into a useable fuel. Essentially, beyond cleaning up a spill, what an environmental company wants to avoid, is the accumulation of waste oil, with no clear perspective on how to recycle or convert it into a useful product.

Given the millions of barrels of oil spilled around the globe, it is hence more reasonable and sustainable, to repurpose spilled oil, as opposed to drilling or fracking for more oil, which only poses further unnecessary risk to the environment and ecosystem damage. In other words, there is much benefit in investing effort in clearing oil spills and managing that waste, as opposed to going after further oil extraction, at the cost of the environment. 

The future of energy generation as we transition from fossil fuels will now entail a clean-up of our affected ecosystems, by using fuels sourced from the superficial environmentally through oil spills and/or recycle waste oil (from e.g. cars, batteries, barges, storage facilities, etc). Using what is already available on the surface of the earth, while simultaneously regenerating and protecting our ecosystems from damage, as we transition to non-fossil fuel power future. 

The spilled oil conversion and or waste oil recycling process is no straightforward task but it is essential, for a sustainable modus operandi, in our future usage of fuel in cars, aircrafts and energy generation and a healing of the fractured areas of our planet.

OUR  REMEDY

NANOARC Carbon offers a range of high performance atomically-architectured quantum materials, functioning as efficient high surface area catalysts at low volumes, for the enhancement of fuel reforming processes. The nanomaterials are geared to facilitate the alteration of waste oil molecular architecture and composition, to  render it more efficient, energy dense for longevity in usage and significantly minimise the levels of CO2 and harmful emissions when combusted.
