The Science of Carbon Sequestration and Capture

About this book

The Science of Carbon Sequestration and Capture examines the current scientific underpinnings of carbon capture and storage (CCS) and provides readers with sufficient background on the basics of geology, natural science, and chemical and environmental engineering so that they can understand the current state and art of the CCS field. Moreover, this book provides a wide-ranging discussion presented in the author's comprehensible conversational style describing the impact of CCS on climate, health, society in general, and the energy landscape. The book is directed at undergraduate and graduate students, professionals, scientists, and the general reading public who would like to gain a broad multidisciplinary view of one of the greatest challenges of our generation.

Features:

  • Aims to fill the gap of missing information in published texts dealing with the carbon sequestration and capture revolution currently underway
  • Provides an understanding of current science buttressing carbon capture and sequestration practices
  • Explains the complexities of carbon sequestration and capture systems in basic and understandable terms
