Article Synopsis
- * Ammonia and methanol production are key areas contributing to over 50% of CO emissions; life cycle assessments show that while fossil routes struggle to cut emissions past 10% by 2050, green technologies could reduce emissions by up to 90%.
- * A proposed roadmap suggests a phased adoption of green production methods in 26 regions globally to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, highlighting that these green technologies could also become more cost-effective over time.
Ammonia and methanol are essential to modern societies, but their production has been heavily reliant on natural gas, which contributes to supply disruptions and significant CO emissions. While low-carbon or green production routes have been extensively researched, their adoption has been hindered by higher costs, making them unsustainable. However, a recent energy crisis in Europe has created a unique opportunity to shift towards greener production technologies.
