Author Description

This electronic book on DVD-ROM provides an unprecedented encyclopedic collection of authoritative official documents, reference books, guides, handbooks, and technical reports about every conceivable aspect of carbon sequestration - with over 18,000 pages of invaluable material presented in Adobe Acrobat PDF format. This incredible library has been revised and updated for this 2011 edition. Progressive Management has been a leader in renewable energy publishing for nearly a decade, and we believe that this exceptional collection provides the most comprehensive set of government carbon sequestration documents ever offered! If you have a professional or personal interest in carbon sequestration, you will find this disc to be an effective, time-saving, and practical source of ready-to-use information. Carbon sequestration is one of the most promising ways for reducing the buildup of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Contents include: 2011 Technology Program Plan; Carbon Dioxide Capture and Storage RD&D Roadmap; 2010 Carbon Sequestration Atlas of the U.S. and Canada; Program Accomplishments; Best Practices Manual Focuses on Site Selection for CO2 Storage; Terrestrial Carbon Sequestration; Carbon Sequestration Technology Roadmap and Program Plan, Ensuring the Future of Fossil Energy Systems through the Successful Deployment of Carbon Capture and Storage Technologies, and many more. CO2 capture is the separation of CO2 from emissions sources or the atmosphere. From emissions sources, CO2 is recovered in a concentrated stream that is amenable to sequestration or conversion. Issues covered here include: geologic formation usage; terrestrial ecosystems; monitoring, verification, and accounting; simulation and risk assessment; Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnership; systems and analysis; avoided emissions; stabilization of CO2 in the atmosphere; regulatory environment; geologic sequestration; pre-combustion R&D; oxy-combustion R&D; power plant usage; research pathways;
