Mitigating hazards with vulnerability in mind

MIT Concrete Sustainability Hub

Ipek Bensu Manav (right) chats with Hessam AzariJafari, her colleague at the MIT Concrete Sustainability Hub. During her time at CSHub, Manav has placed engineering in its social and political contexts and built new connections in the process.

Making the case for hydrogen in a zero-carbon economy

MIT Energy Initiative

MIT researchers find that hydrogen-fired power generation can be a more cost-effective alternative to lithium-ion batteries for peaking operations on a power grid.

Why capturing carbon is an essential part of Biden’s climate plans

MIT Technology Review

The Petra Nova project in Texas was designed to capture around 90% of emissions from one part of the power plant. It was shut down amid the economic downturn last year.

MIT Safe & Sustainable Labs (S2L) Program

Fume hoods like these are placed into hibernation mode when they are no longer in use for the day. Since employing the use of hibernation mode, the unoccupied Undergraduate Teaching Lab air change rate has plummeted from 11 air changes per hour to seven ACH, drastically shrinking unnecessary energy outflow, saving MIT an estimated $21,000 per year.

Reducing emissions by decarbonizing industry

MIT Center for Sustainability Science and Strategy

Cement, iron and steel, and chemicals account for about 20 percent of global CO2 emissions. Emissions from these industries are notoriously difficult to abate because, in addition to emissions associated with energy use, a significant portion of industrial emissions come from the process itself. Pictured here is a steel mill in Pennsylvania.

Push to make supply chains more sustainable continues to gain momentum

MIT Center for Transportation and Logistics

A new report on supply chain sustainability includes the results of a survey of some 2,400 supply chain professionals. More than 80 percent of respondents claimed the pandemic had no impact or increased their firms’ commitments to supply chain sustainability.
