In the refectory at Margat, a series of dark deposits overlain by a pale 'ashy' layer, were hypothesised to be the result of a large-scale burning event.
Nitrogen can also be produced on a large scale by burning carbon or hydrocarbons in air and separating the resulting carbon dioxide and water from the residual nitrogen.
Carbon neutral algal biomass, whether directly harvested or obtained from "intentional" blooms created at pollution source points, could conceivably supplement on a large scale the burning of coal in solid fuel power plants.
Then we started burning coal on a large scale in the 18th century, and the industrial revolution made the graph look like a hockey stick: suddenly incomes were doubling in decades, following centuries of stability.
The industry is the biggest single contributor to greenhouse gas emissions and is telling negotiators it can capture those gases from coal burning on a large scale – a promise the industry has been making for a decade or so with no result.
The strongest increase was evident in waters less than 328 feet deep, where dissolved mercury was 2.6 times higher than it was before humans began burning fossil fuels on a large scale, the study found.
Van Buerden said that he was "absolutely convinced" that without finding a way "on a large scale" to capture the carbon produced by burning fossil fuels, "we are not going to be able to stay within that CO2 emission budget".
Steam also can be generated on a large scale by technological systems, as, for example, those employing fossil-fuel-burning boilers and nuclear reactors.
I realized that the world was not going to stop burning coal anytime soon, and the technology to remove CO2 from the coal stacks is not likely to work on a large scale.
He does this on a large scale.
Carbon capture and storage (CCS) – trapping the CO2 from coal or gas burning and then burying it – is also included, but the report notes it is an untested technology on a large scale and may be expensive.
