Sinossi
Carbon Capture offers a comprehensive exploration of materials designed to capture and store carbon dioxide, a critical strategy for climate change mitigation and improving air quality. The book bridges the gap between scientific research and practical applications, examining the chemistry and physics of these innovative materials. It also addresses the significant engineering challenges involved in scaling up carbon capture technologies. One intriguing aspect is the book's exploration of direct air capture, a method of removing CO2 directly from the atmosphere, offering a potential solution to legacy emissions. The book also delves into the economic and environmental implications of widespread carbon capture, analyzing policy frameworks and potential risks. Structured in three main sections, it begins with the fundamental science behind carbon capture materials, then explores the engineering aspects of different capture technologies (pre-combustion, post-combustion, and direct air capture), and finally evaluates the broader impacts. By integrating perspectives from chemistry, environmental science, chemical engineering, economics, and policy, Carbon Capture provides a balanced view of the potential and limitations of this technology. Readers will gain a deeper understanding of the hurdles to deployment and the true potential of carbon capture to combat climate change.
