Geological storage and sequestration of carbon dioxide, in saline aquifers, depleted oil and gas fields or unminable coal seams, represents one of the most important processes for reducing humankind's emissions of greenhouse gases. This book reviews the techniques and wider impl…
Réflexion sur les choix politiques en matière d'environnement, et sur les mesures à prendre pour sauver le climat en assurant l'avenir énergétique de la société.--[Memento].
Photochemical and Substrate-Driven CO2 Conversion / Bart Limburg, Cristina Maquiln, Arjan W Kleij -- C-H Carboxylations with CO2 / Uttam Dhawa, Isaac Choi, Lutz Ackermann -- Transition-Metal-Catalyzed C-H Carboxylation / Joaquim Caner, Nobuharu Iwasawa -- Fixation of CO2 in Orga…
This book presents guidelines for the design, operation and monitoring of CO2 injection in fractured carbonates, with low permeability in the rock matrix, for geological storage in permanent trapping. CO2 migration is dominated by fractures in formations where the hydrodynamic a…
The increasing levels of CO2 in the atmosphere and its consequential impact on global warming is driving many research groups to develop ways to use CO2 as raw material. For example, to produce feedstocks, or fuels. A wide variety of approaches to carbon dioxide utilisation have…
Fossil fuels are the major sources of electrical power generation in the world. Among all fossil fuels, oil is considered as the most sought-after fuel. The burden on countries that provide subsidized electricity produced from oil-fired power plants is noteworthy. Kuwait is a no…
The use of microalgae culture to convert CO2 from power plant flue gases into biomass that are readily converted into biofuels offers a new frame of opportunities to enhance, compliment or replace fossil-fuel-use. Apart from being renewable, microalgae also have the capacity to …
As the global population rises to an estimated 9.4bn by 2050, the pressure for food, fuel and freshwater will continue to increase. Current renewable energy technologies are not widely applicable to the transport sector, which requires energy dense liquid fuels that drop into ou…
Millions of children travel to and from school each day as part of their daily routine. A large percentage of children make this journey by car, and the numbers are steadily rising and this is leading to many environmental and health implications for children. The current econom…
