The Challenges Facing Carbon Capture and StorageDowden, Malcolm
each academic will have their own research interests and so choice of project topic comes down, at least in part, to a choice of supervisor. In this course, we simulate this real-world context by
Environmental groups such as theSierra Clubremain skeptical, though they agree that carbon storage would mitigate one of the main concerns about coal -- its large carbon footprint, thought to be contributing to global warming. Steve Thomas, western regional director of the Sierra Club, described t...
This paper discusses the opportunities and challenge of capture and storage of CO2 (CCS) as one of the activities to implement the Clean Development Mechanism(CDM).CCS is considered as an optional means of mitigating the anthropogenic CO2 emission.But in the developing countries,CCS faces the chal...

The blast furnace (BF) technology will continue to dominate steel production in the coming decade and the only way to substantially reduce the associated CO2 emissions is to combine it with Carbon Capture and Utilization (CCU) and/or Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS). CCU options that do not ...
A brine extraction (BE) operation for carbon capture and storage (CCS) is analogous to the production of oil, brine, and CO2 in CO2 enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and brine and gas in NGS operations (Oldenburg, 2018). The objectives of a CO2 EOR operation are to maximize oil production and...
White Knights: Will wind and solar come to the rescue of a looming capacity gap from nuclear phase-out or slow CCS start-up? In the wake of the Fukushima nuclear accident, countries like Germany and Japan have planned a phase-out of nuclear generation. Carbon capture and storage ... B ...
Harmonized carbon pricing across borders is hard to achieve in the real world as carbon leakage can reduce the cost-effectiveness of unilateral approaches to reduce global emissions. To address this problem, border carbon adjustments (BCAs) would apply t
These figures underscore the imperative for emerging economies to curtail their overall reliance on fossil fuels and seriously consider the implementation of carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies within their remaining fossil fuel power systems1. However, the widespread adoption of CCS is ...
