Description

Theoretical, Practical, and Economic Prospects of Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage spans the complexities of CCUS technologies, offering engineers, researchers, and policymakers a comprehensive guide integrating theoretical foundations, practical applications, and economic analyses. Part I explores Carbon Capture techniques, Part II delves into Carbon Utilization processes, while Part III focuses on Carbon Storage and Sequestration technology, culminating in Part IV, which delves into Economic and Technical Considerations in CCUS Implementation. In Part I: Carbon Capture, readers are introduced to Carbon Capture, learn about various Carbon Capture Techniques, and understand the Compression and Transportation of CO2. Part II: Carbon Utilization covers the Introduction to Carbon Utilization, Carbon Utilization Processes, and New Insights into Carbon Utilization with Practical Applications, including the CO2 Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) Technique. Part III: Carbon Storage and Sequestration includes the Introduction to Carbon Storage and Sequestration and details the CO2 Storage and Sequestration Technology. The book concludes with Part IV: Economic and Technical Considerations in CCUS Implementation, which explores Economic Perspectives on CCUS and Technical and Non-Technical Aspects of CCUS. Theoretical, Practical, and Economic Prospects of Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage serves as a valuable resource for engineers, consultants, operations managers, mechanical engineers, and personnel from the oil and gas industry, preparing them to effectively implement and manage CCUS technologies.

Academic professionals, graduate, and undergraduate students seeking foundational and advanced knowledge in CCUS will benefit from the book's in-depth exploration of the latest technologies, real-world case studies, and economic models, addressing technical, economic, and regulatory challenges in adopting CCUS technologies.

Key features
