The environmental catastrophe caused by carbon emissions has now become a huge threat to mankind
The environmental catastrophe caused by carbon emissions has now become a huge threat to mankind.  But there is no way to keep the wheel of civilization moving without running power generation and industrial factories.  Hydrocarbons (fossil fuels, i.e. oil-coal) are mainly burned in heat production.  As a result, carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere, making the earth unsuitable for human habitation.

 The scale of the damage we are doing to the environment is appalling;  Even the damage I have already done is very difficult to manage.  There are agreements in various international forums to reduce carbon emissions, and in many cases bring them down to zero;  However, the progress is less.  Again many countries are making extra efforts like their own out of a sense of responsibility in addition to the goals of the forum.

 First, many seek to use renewable energy.  Wind and solar power are playing a significant role in this.  However, they also have many limitations.  As a result, it will not be possible to meet the demand of the world only with wind and solar power.  In addition to these, we have to generate a lot of electricity.

 The company of epoch-making technologist and giant Bill Gates has designed a nuclear-power plant that can be installed risk-free and at a relatively low cost in a long-running effort.  The chances of an accident are nil, and the toxic derivatives of depleted uranium that have been leaking from nuclear power plants for so long will be used as fuel.  As a result, they will simultaneously generate pollution-free electricity and reduce previous pollution.  The first centers were agreed to be located in China.  But the US-China trade war has stalled the implementation of such a beneficial innovation.

 The application of environmentally friendly fuels invented so far has been able to meet only a small part of our demand, so more alternative fuels were being sought.  Hydrogen is being tested as a possible alternative.  Hydrogen is likely to be a very good alternative, as it will be able to replace existing fossil fuels in all cases.

 Experiments with hydrogen fuel use are underway in many countries around the world.

 The joint venture between Saudi oil company Aramco and Japan's Institute of Energy Economics (IEE, J) announced the success last week.  For the first time in the history of the world, a ship carrying blue ammonia has left Japan for Japan to be used as fuel in Japan's thermal power plants.  The initiative was co-sponsored by the Saudi Arabian Chemical Industry (SABIC) and the Japan Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.

 Ammonia contains three hydrogen atoms and one nitrogen atom.  Hydrogen will act as fuel, nitrogen will come out as a by-product.  This nitrogen, which is released instead of harmful carbon dioxide, will be absorbed into nature and will be helpful in the much needed nitrogen cycle for life.

 Japan aims to reduce its power generation to zero carbon emissions.  This blue ammonia will meet that goal by being used as an alternative to fossil fuels.

 Blue ammonia can be used not only in power generation, but also in industries that require very high temperature furnaces, such as steel, cement and chemical factories, as an alternative to fossil fuels.  Replacing fossil fuels with blue ammonia in such industries would reduce global carbon emissions by 20%.

 To lead the Blue Ammonia Revolution, Saudi oil company Aramco is working with carbon-free fuels in addition to Japan.  This July, American Air Products N Chemicals Inc. agreed to set up a state-of-the-art ammonia plant in Saudi Arabia in a joint venture with a 5 billion investment.

 May these initiatives be successful;  If the environment survives, we will survive.
