Getting Rid of Carbon: A New Direction for the Chemical Industry
Abstract: The chemical industry is a major contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions due to its reliance on fossil-based feedstocks, energy-intensive processing routes, and long-lived capital infrastructure. Achieving international climate targets therefore requires deep decarbonisation across the entire chemical value chain, a transition complicated by technological limitations, economic risks, and systemic operational barriers. This article critically evaluates key emission-reduction pathways, including electrification of process heat, substitution of fossil resources with bio-based …

Liquid Architecture: Cultural Narratives, Spatial Metaphors, and the Evolution of Fluid Form
Abstract: Liquid architecture represents a fundamental rethinking of architectural space, moving away from the long-standing assumption that buildings must be static, permanent, and formally fixed. Rather than understanding architecture as an object defined by rigid boundaries and stable geometry, liquid architecture proposes space as a fluid condition shaped by movement, atmosphere, perception, and cultural meaning. Rooted in cultural theory, phenomenology, and spatial anthropology, this approach views architecture as an evolving narrative …
