Coal-Fired Power Plants & Carbon Dioxide Issues

Editat de Matthew W. Shuester
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 8 mar 2011
Any comprehensive approach to substantially reduce greenhouse gases must address the world's dependency on coal for one-quarter of its energy demand, including almost half of its electricity demand. To maintain coal in the world's energy mix in a carbon-constrained future would require development of a technology to capture and store its carbon dioxide emissions. This situation suggests to some that any greenhouse gas reduction program be delayed until such carbon capture technology has been demonstrated. However, technological innovation and the demands of a carbon control regime are interlinked; a technology policy is no substitute for environmental policy and should be developed in concert with it. This book explores developing a means to control coal-derived greenhouse gas emissions which is an imperative if serious reductions in world-wide emissions are to occur in the foreseeable future.
