Nachhaltige Systeme für Industriechemikalien und -materialien

Newsletter

If your molecules are misbehaving, Joe Sabol can help you, providing chemical information on metals and oxides, semiconductors, polymers, natural products, and more!

In addition to technical and business development service, Joe Sabol organizes symposia at technical conferences on 1) indoor air quality, 2) methane, 3) carbon dioxide, 4) misleading information, and 5) SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 Resources.

1) Indoor Air Quality ensures ventilation in buildings and on public transport. Carbon dioxide (CO2) 425 ppm is a proxy for clean air and MERV 13 filters can remove particulates.

2) Methane accounts for about 30% of the global warming since the industrial revolution and the atmospheric concentration of is increasing faster than at any time since record keeping began in the 1980s. Methane’s savior is its mean atmospheric lifetime of about ten years.

3) Carbon Dioxide

Globally, approximately 50 billion tonnes (50 Gt) of greenhouse gases, as measured in carbon dioxide equivalents, are emitted directly into the atmosphere each year. Energy use (electricity, heat and transport) accounts for 73.2%, direct industrial processes 5.2%, waste 3.2%, and agriculture, forestry and land use 18.4%.

4) Coping with Misleading Information

Information flows to us via many channels. Misleading information is more than an inconvenience, it can create chaos and delay or prevent decisions in public health, environmental action, and the market. The popular press and social media proffer in real time and mis- and dis-information can spread like wildfire; if unchallenged, societal polarization can increase and confidence in public institutions can erode. We need to help society understand complex social and technical issues. Frame your activities around who is creating the content, who is amplifying the content, and who is affected by the content.

5) SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 can be spread via airborne vectors. Filters, masks, and vaccines help stop spreading.
