Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In "Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS): A Simple Guide to Big Ideas," readers are taken on a clear and accessible journey through one of the most promising solutions to global climate change. The book begins with a foundation in climate science, explaining the causes and consequences of rising greenhouse gases and establishing why carbon dioxide is central to current mitigation efforts. It introduces the concept of carbon sequestration, situating CCS within the broader portfolio of climate solutions and highlighting its critical role alongside renewables and energy efficiency. The guide then provides a comprehensive exploration of the technologies and processes that make CCS possible. From state-of-the-art capture techniques-whether post-combustion, pre-combustion, oxy-fuel, or direct air capture-to the complexities of safely transporting and permanently storing CO2 deep underground, the text navigates scientific detail without overwhelming the reader. Insightful case studies and real-world examples illuminate both the challenges and successes encountered in CCS implementation, while the discussion of environmental impacts, community concerns, and economic factors offers a balanced perspective on its practical realities. Moving beyond technology, the book delves into the policy landscape, economic considerations, and international cooperation necessary for scaling CCS globally. It addresses the intricacies of carbon markets, regulatory frameworks, public acceptance, and the ethics of deploying large-scale mitigation technologies, all while charting future innovation and envisioning a net-zero world. "Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS): A Simple Guide to Big Ideas" stands as an engaging primer for students, professionals, and citizens eager to understand how CCS can help secure a sustainable future for the planet.
