Abstract:
Growing concerns about climate change and the inevitable depletion of fossil fuel resources have led to an increased focus on renewable energy technologies and reducing GHG emissions. Limiting the atmospheric level of CO2 is essential to prevent the most damaging effects of climate change. Among renewable energy resources, biomass combustion has the largest potential to contribute to global energy demands, however it is considered to be a carbon neutral solution and so only limits CO2 concentrations rather than reducing them. Through pyrolysis rather than combustion, biomass can lead to carbon

Att begränsa globala uppvärmningen till 1,5°C kommer kräva negativa koldioxidutsläpp. En metod för att generera negativa koldioxidutsläpp är så kallad Bio-Energy Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS). En direkt implementering av BECCS är att fånga in CO2 från rökgas som genereras vid förbränning av biomassa i en så kallad post-combustion capture-konfigurering. Post-combustion BECCS har skapat en stor resonans hos kraftverksoperatörer och pappersproducenter.

Abstract:
This thesis progresses from a ‘science and technology studies’ (STS) perspective to consider the ways that expert stakeholders perceive and communicate uncertainties and risks attached to carbon dioxide (CO2) capture and storage (CCS) research and development, and how this compares with policy framings and regulatory requirements. The work largely falls within the constructivist tradition in sociology, but also draws on literature from the philosophy of science and policy-­‐oriented literature on risk and uncertainty. CCS describes a greenhouse gas (GHG) mitigation technology system that invol

Abstract:
Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is the most viable option to reduce CO2 emissions from power plants while continuing the use of fossil fuels required to satisfy the increasing energy demand. However, CCS is an energy intensive process, and demands additional energy, chemicals and infrastructure. The capture processes may also have certain direct emissions to air (NH3, aldehydes, solvent vapor etc.) and generate solid wastes from degradation byproducts. A trade-off in environmental impacts is expected, and with the large-scale application of CCS needed to make any significant reduction in CO e

Abstract:
Climate change is affecting planet Earth. The main cause is anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases, the principal one being carbon dioxide, released in the atmosphere as a by-product of the combustion of hydrocarbons for the generation of energy. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a technology that would prevent carbon dioxide from being emitted into the atmosphere by safely sequestering it underground. For so doing, CO2 must be captured at large emission points and transported at high pressure to underground reservoirs, where the gas can be injected and stored for thousands of years to

Abstract:
Coal has been used as a fuel for electricity generation for centuries. Inexpensive electricity from coal has been a key component in building large industrial economies such as USA and China. But in recent decades the negative aspects of coal, mainly carbon dioxide emissions, has changed the view on the fuel. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a solution to be able to continue using coal as an energy source, while limiting carbon emissions. One of the drawbacks of CCS is the energy need associated with the capture process, the energy penalty. This study aims to gather and analyze the energy p

Abstract:
Carbon dioxide (CO2) capture and geological storage (CCS) is recognised as one of themain options in the portfolio of greenhouse gas (GHG) mitigation technologies beingdeveloped worldwide. The CO2 capture and storage technologies require significantamounts of energy during their implementation and also change the environmentalprofile of power generation. The holistic perspective offered by Life Cycle Assessment(LCA) enables decision makers to quantify the trade-offs inherent in any change to thepower production systems and helps to ensure that a reduction in GHG emissions doesnot result in sig

Abstract:
Carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) in confined saline aquifers in sedimentary formations has the potential to reduce the impact of fossil fuel combustion on climate change by storing CO2 in geologic formations in perpetuity. At PT conditions relevant to CCUS, CO2 is less dense than the pre-existing brine in the formation, and the more buoyant CO2 will migrate to the top of the formation where it will be in contact with cap rock. A typical cap rock is clay-rich shale, and interactions between shales and CO2 are poorly understood at PT conditions appropriate for CCUS in saline format

Abstract:
Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is a suite of technologies available to directly reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions to the atmosphere from fossil fuelled power plants and large industrial point sources. For a safe deployment of CCS it is important that CO2 injected into deep geological formations does not migrate out of the storage site. Characterising and understanding possible migration mechanisms and pathways along which migration may occur is therefore crucial to ensure secure engineered storage of anthropogenic CO2.

Abstract:
Fossil fuels constitute a significant fraction of the world’s energy demand. The burning of fossil fuels emits huge amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Therefore, the limited availability of fossil fuel resources and the environmental impact of their use require a change to alternative energy sources or carriers (such as hydrogen) in the foreseeable future. The development of methods to mitigate carbon dioxide emission into the atmosphere is equally important. Hence, extensive research has been carried out on the development of cost-effective technologies for carbon dioxide capture
