Nanostructured Materials and Nanotechnology VI, Volume 33, Issue 7
This issue features fourteen peer-reviewed papers originating from The 6th International Symposium on Nanostructured Materials and Nanotechnology. It includes Nanostructured coatings by cluster beam deposition; a new greener synthetic route to cadmium/lead selenide and telluride nanoparticles; and much more. Held in January 2012, during the 36th International Conference on Advanced Ceramics and Composites (ICACC), the symposium covered a broad range of issues, including synthesis, processing, modeling, and structure-property correlations in nanomaterials and nanocomposites, enabling scientists, engineers, and technologists from around the world to explore the latest developments in the field.
Geologically Storing Carbon
Carbon capture and geological storage (CCS) is presently the only way that we can make deep cuts in emissions from fossil fuel-based, large-scale sources of CO2 such as power stations and industrial plants. But if this technology is to be acceptable to the community, it is essential that it is credibly demonstrated by world-class scientists and engineers in an open and transparent manner at a commercially significant scale. The aim of the Otway Project was to do just this. Geologically Storing Carbon provides a detailed account of the CO2CRC Otway Project, one of the most comprehensive demonstrations of the deep geological storage or geosequestration of carbon dioxide undertaken anywhere. Th...
Biomass Energy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS)
An essential resource for understanding the potential role for biomass energy with carbon capture and storage in addressing climate change Biomass Energy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS) offers a comprehensive review of the characteristics of BECCS technologies in relation to its various applications. The authors — a team of expert professionals — bring together in one volume the technical, scientific, social, economic and governance issues relating to the potential deployment of BECCS as a key approach to climate change mitigation. The text contains information on the current and future opportunities and constraints for biomass energy, explores the technologies involved in BECCS ...
Power Generation
This book presents a comprehensive examination of the capture and storage of CO2 in power generation. It is a clear reference, which starts by explaining the properties and use of CO2, how it affects the climate, the rationale behind the use of CCS and the public perception of the technology. It moves on considering the options for long-term storage and the relative merits of underground storage and ocean storage. It includes a full description of the fuels and power generation processes that generate CO2 and the gas separation theory necessary for capturing the resultant CO2. Finally the book focuses on the end of the power plant process and the necessary compression, and conditioning, of t...
