In achieving its unique mandate in accelerating Inclusive and Sustainable Industrial Development, UNIDO recognizes access to sustainable energy for productive uses as a key catalyst for inclusive and sustainable economic development.
An Environmental Information System (EIS) aims to respond to decision-makers’ needs for information on the evolution of the environment, and its impact on people’s lives and the natural resources on which they depend.
Agricultural ecosystems hold large carbon reserves (IPCC, 2001a), mostly in soil organic matter.Historically, these systems have lost more than 50 Pg Carbon, but some of this carbon lost can be recovered through improved management, thereby withdrawing atmospheric CO2 (Paustian et al., 1998; Lal, 1999, 2004a).
Since about 1.5 billion people in the world use traditional stoves for cooking (and heating), efforts to improve the efficiency of cookstoves have been increasingly popular in the developing world. Improved stoves come in different forms and sizes.
Background: The University of Florida is seeking companies interested in commercializing an innovative cost-efficient and safer LED form of the traditional theatrical lighting system. The system utilizes LED technology to provide a more efficient light source that last up to up 10 years under continuous 24 hour operation compared to incandescent sources with a 6 month life span under the same 24 hour operation.
Carbon tetrachloride (CTC) is a solvent and cleaning agent used widely across many industry segments. Its high solvency power, low cost and the fact that it is non-flammable made it popular in many cleaning applications.
ONF International (ONFI) is an environmental expertise cabinet specialising in the sustainable management of ecosystems (notably forest based) and thefight against global warming. ONFI provides both public and private players with integral and pragmatic solutions that help valorise the role of forests and wood in land use development.
This is a lamp made up of an outer layer polished Clay liner a cement and clay middle mortar and a green metal casing out. The clay liner has a rocket design making it easier for fire to burn under pressure. The polish liner radiates back the heat centralising it in the middle thus conserving the heat.
Coal Fired Steam Boiler equivalent to 20MW is heating the new Beijing airport area. The boiler is emitting 107000 Nm3/hr of flue gases which are treated by using Lextran Technology. 25MW Electricity Production Unit in CET IASI 1 in Romania is fired by heavy fuel/natural gas. The unit is equipped with Lextran system to treat SOx and NOx.
