| Abstract: | Passenger planes use thrust engines to ‘taxi’ on the ground from airport gate to the runway, which creates a large amount of emissions on the ground in a very short time. A collaboration between the University of Malta (UM) and the University of Nottingham Ningbo, China is working towards a solution to this problem. Jonathan Firbank explores the subject following an interview with Dr Robert Camilleri. |
