A systems perspective for assessing carbon dioxide capture and storage opportunities
… continues to grow amongst academics, statesmen and plebeians alike, the early adopters have already engaged in pre-emptive research activities aimed at mitigating the effects of such greenhouse gases. The focus of one such effort is on the capture and storage of CO₂ (carbon dioxide) from …

Public awareness of carbon capture and storage : a survey of attitudes toward climate change mitigation
The Carbon Capture and Sequestration Technologies Program in the Laboratory for Energy and the Environment at MIT conducted a survey of public attitudes on energy use and environmental concerns. Over 1,200 people, representing a general population sample of the United States, responded. The survey …

Integration of distributed and heterogeneous information for public-private policy analyses
Databases and analysis tools currently being used to study carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) options are managed by diverse organizations and are heterogeneous in format. Tools to study the various components of a CCS system have been developed in several fields including chemistry, geology, …

Dynamic reduced order modeling of entrained flow gasifiers
Gasification-based energy systems coupled with carbon dioxide capture and storage technologies have the potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from continued use of abundant and secure fossil fuels. Dynamic reduced order models (ROMs) that predict the operation of entrained flow gasifiers …

Modeling and design for electrochemical carbon dioxide capture systems
… remain humanity's primary source of energy, carbon dioxide capture and storage will be needed to mitigate the effects of global climate change. Existing carbon dioxide separation technology is energetically intensive and expensive to employ in brownfield applications. This thesis describes a …

Effect of halite (NaCl) on sandstone permeability and well injectivity during CO2 storage in saline aquifers
Carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) is one of the widely discussed options for decreasing CO2 emissions. This method requires the techniques for capturing purification of anthropogenic CO2 from fossil-fuel power plants, subsequent compression and transport, and, ultimately, its storage in deep …

Rethinking CCS - strategies for technology development in times of uncertainty
Concerns over climate change and a reliance on CO₂-emitting fossil fuels for a majority of the world's energy supply have motivated the development of carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS). However, CCS is not yet commercially available, and key technical roadblocks remain. However, the external …

Impact of impurities on thermo-physical properties of CO2-rich systems : experimental and modelling
Numerous industrial and academic communities have directed their efforts into developing technologies for reducing the emission of CO2 in the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) is one of the most promising technologies that can eliminate/reduce global warming, helping the world to …

Evaluation of geological CO 2 storage involving adsorption on mining wastes from coal processing
… for the improvement of power generation eciency and the implementation of CO2 capture at point sources followed by subsurface CO2 storage are being pursued. Predominantly geological formations are regarded as potential CO2 storage sites, but coal mines are also being discussed regarding their …
