Events of recent years have obviously seen thousands of tons of used surgical masks dumped every month without a real vision of how to manage them. Although the world appears to have passed through this period, a serious industrial eco-solution must be developed to deal with the waste. Researchers are investigating the possibilities of plasma gasification as an eco-friendly technique to convert surgical mask waste into clean energy products.

However, some sectors are lagging behind and struggling to decarbonize more than others, including large-scale transportation like commercial aviation, shipping, and rail transit. Electrofuels (aka eFuels) are the next generation of solutions to help the hardest-to-abate sectors pivot from their reliance on fossil fuels.
