Thomas M. Kerr, International Energy Agency - 2007 - Science - Full view
Carbon capture and storage (CCS)
represents one of the most promising potential solutions to contain
emissions resulting from continued use of coal and other fossil
fuels. However, challenges such as a lack of legal and regulatory
frameworks to ...

Nicholas Herbert Stern, Great Britain. Treasury - 2007 - Science - Limited preview
There is now clear scientific
evidence that emissions from economic activity, particularly the
burning of fossil fuels for energy, are causing changes to the
Earth's climate. A sound understanding of the economics of climate
change is needed in ...

This book is the first systematic
presentation of the technical, legal, and economic forces that must
coalesce to deploy carbon dioxide capture and geologic sequestration
as a viable technology within a larger carbon dioxide reduction
strategy ...

Sean T. McCoy, Carnegie Mellon University - 2008 - Limited
preview
Large reductions in carbon dioxide
(CO2) emissions are needed to mitigate the impacts of climate
change. One method of achieving such reductions is CO2 capture and
storage (CCS). CCS requires the capture of carbon dioxide (CO2) at a
large ...

Luigi Marini - 2007 - Limited
preview
The contents of this monograph are
two-scope. First, it intends to provide a synthetic but complete
account of the thermodynamic and kinetic foundations on which the
reaction path modeling of geological CO2 sequestration is based. In
particular ...

Robin M. Mills - 2010 - Science - Limited preview
We now possess the technology to
capture carbon emissions as they are released into the atmosphere.
After capture, the gas is trapped within facilities hidden far
underground. As promising as this process sounds, can it really
compete with the ...

James Meadowcroft, Oluf Langhelle - 2011 - No preview
available
Over the past decade, carbon capture
and storage (CCS) has come to the fore as a way to manage carbon
dioxide emissions contributing to climate change. This book examines
its introduction into the political scene, different interpretations
of its ...

Ying
Wu, John J. Carroll, Zhimin Du - 2011 - No preview
available
Carbon dioxide sequestration is a
technology that is being explored to curb the anthropogenic emission
of CO2 into the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide has been implicated in
the global climate change and reducing them is a potential solution.
The ...

Simon Shackley, Clair Gough - 2006 - Limited
preview
Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS)
offers the possibility of significant reductions in the volume of
CO2 released into the atmosphere in the near to medium term. As a
fairly new technology that has not been widely adopted, there remain
some ...
