The semiconductor supply chain is facing rapid de-globalisation. New regional centres are reshoring chip production to accelerate sector growth, increase end-product availability, and hence, bolster national security in the US and Europe.
This paper explores the sustainability challenges and opportunities of the semiconductor industry focusing on industrial solutions to sustainable water and energy use in production.
Waste generation is continuously on the rise with improper disposal of this waste leading to emissions and environmental contamination.
A significant portion of this waste is organic waste, from which valuable resources can be extracted like biomethane and fertiliser. Anaerobic digestion stands out as an infrastructure solution to close the loop of wasteful linear consumption.
Demand for data storage and processing, accelerated by online meetings and AI advancements, is driving the growth of the data centre industry which requires significant cooling. Industrial cooling consumes large quantities of water and energy, releasing carbon...
