VDM Kohberg, T: CCS - Carbon Capture and Storage

Climate change has recently advanced as an important topic. In this context, capture and sequestration of CO2 released by the combustion of fossil fuels is discussed. This paper covers the possible application of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technology for power generation in fossil fuel power plants. Its focus is on the current status of development of CCS technology, which can be divided into three areas: capture, transport and storage. By providing an overview of the latest CCS projects, the technology now avail-able is described. Moreover, legal and climate policy issues are discussed. ...
