Klappentext

Therma Plasma-coupled Carbon Capture Utilization and Storage: Unlocking the Potential of Thermal Plasma presents a groundbreaking approach to addressing climate change through innovative waste management and carbon capture solutions. By integrating thermal plasma with CCUS technologies, the book examines how this synergy can advance sustainable development, emphasizing the importance of renewable hydrogen, lifecycle assessment, and catalysts. It provides a thorough exploration of conventional and plasma-coupled CCS systems, highlighting the environmental, economic, and social dimensions of adopting these technologies. The text serves as a vital guide for researchers and policymakers seeking practical strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and foster a circular economy.

In addition to covering technical fundamentals, the book offers comprehensive insights into the global landscape of CCUS, future possibilities, and the ethical, political, and social implications of climate action. It uniquely focuses on the role of thermal plasma in Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS), detailing how harnessing biomass for energy while sequestering carbon can help mitigate climate threats. The resource stands out as essential reading for industry experts aiming to implement sustainable solutions and contribute meaningfully to the global transition toward low-carbon energy systems.
