Second, it discusses …
Carbon Capture and Storage
Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a climate change mitigation technology where CO 2 is captured from power plants and other industrial processes instead of being emitted to the atmosphere. The captured CO 2 is then stored in the subsurface with the goal of keeping it out of the atmosphere indefinitely (Fig. 31.1).CCS can be seen as a bridge technology, allowing for …
