7 books on Carbon Capturing [PDF]
October 27, 2024 | 22 |
These books are covering the technologies for carbon capture, methods of carbon storage, environmental impacts of carbon emissions, challenges in implementing carbon capture solutions, innovations in carbon utilization, policy frameworks supporting carbon reduction and the role of carbon capture in combating climate change.
1. Advances in Carbon Capture and Utilization
2021 by Deepak Pant, Ashok Kumar Nadda, Kamal Kishore Pant, Avinash Kumar Agarwal
"This book delves into recent developments in carbon management, offering up-to-date insights into diverse strategies aimed at tackling the rising atmospheric carbon dioxide levels. Given the mounting evidence of climate change attributed to the persistent increase in atmospheric CO2, this issue has gained prominence on political, societal, and trade fronts. Over the last half-century, global mean temperatures have shown a significant increase, with the rate reaching 0.17°C/decade and a 0.9°C rise above the 1951-1980 mean global temperature in 2017, according to GISS data. Notably, the past decade ranks as the warmest in history, surpassing preindustrial levels by approximately 1.1°C. In response to this, carbon management has emerged as a critical approach for mitigating CO2 emissions and addressing climate change. This book aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of sustainable carbon dioxide management techniques, emphasizing efforts to minimize emissions, maximize environmentally responsible reuse, recycling, and the adoption of emerging technologies for carbon dioxide mitigation. Additionally, it explores the transformation of carbon dioxide into valuable products to promote sustainable utilization."

4. Carbon Capture, Storage and, Utilization: A possible climate change solution for energy industry
2014 by Malti Goel
"Carbon Capture, Storage, and Utilization: A Viable Climate Change Solution for the Energy Industry" explores advanced energy technologies, including carbon capture and storage (CCS), as potential solutions to make traditional fossil fuel sources more environmentally sustainable. This book is particularly relevant for economies heavily reliant on coal. It comprehensively examines the various facets of carbon dioxide capture, utilization, and delves into the intricate processes involved in carbon dioxide storage within the Earth. It assesses the potential of Carbon Capture, Storage, and Utilization as an innovative energy technology that could contribute to a sustainable energy future. The text covers a range of techniques for recovering carbon dioxide from power plants, encompassing physical, chemical, and biological approaches, while also addressing the challenges and opportunities in biomimetic carbon sequestration. Furthermore, the book explores the potential for carbon fixation in coal mines and saline aquifers.

5. Capturing Carbon and Conserving Biodiversity: The Market Approach
2013 by Ian R. Swingland
"For years, conservation efforts have relied heavily on donor-driven initiatives, which have proven ineffective. Similarly, environmental degradation has been met with the 'Polluter Pays' principle, yielding limited results. It's time to break this cycle. While many advocate for a market-driven approach, few comprehend its practical implementation. When confronted with real-world challenges, how can one act? What is the current state of affairs, and how can a self-sustaining system be fostered, motivating individuals to take initiative? This study delves into the potential of the burgeoning carbon market as a means to conserve carbon-based resources."

6. Carbon Capture and Sequestration: Removing the Legal and Regulatory Barriers
2012 by Millett Granger Morgan
"Carbon Capture and Sequestration: Overcoming Legal and Regulatory Challenges" delves into the United States' substantial reliance on fossil fuels, with over seventy percent of its electricity coming from fossil sources, particularly coal and natural gas. Considering coal's significant role in global electricity generation, it becomes crucial to incorporate carbon capture and permanent sequestration technologies into greenhouse gas reduction strategies. Despite incentives for CCS technology development in many countries, substantial legal and regulatory obstacles persist. This book examines existing U.S. laws and regulations related to geologic sequestration, identifies regulatory requirements necessary for safe and effective implementation of this technology, and highlights barriers posed by current legal frameworks. The authors pinpoint three major impediments: unclear procedures for accessing pore space in deep saline formations, a fragmented and static permitting system, and an absence of a coherent long-term liability plan for sequestered CO2. The book offers legislative options to eliminate these barriers, meet regulatory demands, and recommends the most effective approaches to foster the secure and efficient adoption of CCS. With legislative language provided, this resource serves as a valuable tool for policymakers tackling the challenges of addressing climate change and energy issues.
