Descripción

Theoretical, Practical, and Economic Prospects of Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage provides a comprehensive and multidisciplinary treatment of the technologies and considerations driving the deployment of carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) solutions.

Covering the full CCUS value chain, the book examines carbon capture methods, CO2 compression and transportation, CO2 utilization pathways, including enhanced oil recovery (EOR), and long-term geological storage and sequestration technologies. Alongside technical foundations, it explores the engineering, economic, operational, environmental, regulatory, and implementation challenges and strategies that influence project success.

Drawing on real-world examples and case studies, the text bridges theory and practice, helping readers evaluate the technical feasibility, economic viability, environmental performance, and long-term sustainability of CCUS projects in diverse settings. Designed for engineers, researchers, consultants, industry professionals, students, and policymakers, it offers both foundational knowledge and insight into current developments shaping the field. The book also introduces techno-economic assessment, life-cycle cost analysis, process optimization, and emerging digital approaches, including artificial intelligence and machine learning, for evaluating and improving CCUS systems. By integrating technical and economic perspectives, the book supports informed decision-making and effective management of CCUS initiatives aimed at reducing industrial carbon emissions and supporting the transition toward low-carbon and net-zero energy systems.
