Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is seen as one of the key technologies for cutting CO2 emissions from coal power plants. It is proposed that carbon capture and storage could reduce CO2 emissions to the atmosphere from a modern power plant by approximately 80-90%. Building and operating infrastructure for capturing, transporting, and storing CO2, however, is forecast to be expensive. To gain a ...

This paper reviews the Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnerships (RCSP) concept, which is a first attempt to bring the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) carbon sequestration program activities into the "real world" by using a geographically-disposed-system type approach for the U.S. Each regional partnership is unique and covers a unique section of the U.S. and is tasked with determining how t...

Using industrial emissions as a strategy for CO2 sequestration through carbon capture and utilization (CCU) in cultivation of microalgae can potentially change factors such pH, nutri...

The paper contributes to techno-economic modelling of CO2 capture process in coalfired power plants. Technological options of CO2 capture have been chosen and cost estimation relationships (CERs) for the chosen options provided. The CERs are being fitted into a developed overall model of carbon capture and sequestration. Functions relating capital costs, operation and maintenance costs and tota...

evaluation of carbon sequestration ability by chlorella vulgaris in water with different salinity expanded abstractintroductionnowadays, cultivation of microalgae in order to reduce co2 has gained attention all around the world. one of the outstanding features is that photosynthetic efficiency of microalgae is greater than that of terrestrial plants. carbon dioxide (co2) has been known as one o...

Carbon capture and sequestration will require the management and storage of carbon dioxide either in geological reservoirs or in the ocean over many centuries. While the possibility of exposure leading to damages to public health, workers or the environment may be small, it seems inevitable that if there is to be widespread adoption of sequestration, then a regulatory system will need to evolve...
