CO2 Capture
Author: Fabrice Lecomte
Publisher: Editions TECHNIP
ISBN: 9782710809487
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 204
Book Description
CO2 capture and geological storage (CCS) is now recognised as being one of the pathways that can be implemented to reduce CO2 emissions and fight against global warming. But where, how and at what price can CO2 be captured? This book attempts to provide the answers to these questions, reviewing the state of the art of the technologies required. It presents the three main pathways considered in which the CO2 capture technologies are expected to be implemented, respectively: the post-combustion pathway, in which the CO2 contained in industrial flue gases is extracted; the oxy-combustion pathway, in which combustion is performed in oxygen to obtain flue gases with high CO2 concentration; and lastly the pre-combustion pathway, in which carbon is extracted from the initial fuel to generate hydrogen, whose combustion will produce only water vapour. The book introduces, for each pathway, the technologies currently available and those under development. It is intended for everyone wanting to gain a better understanding of the mechanisms implemented in CO2 capture operations, as well as the technological and economic challenges to be met to ensure that the costs generated by these operations are no longer an obstacle to their worldwide generalisation.Contents: 1. Why capture and store CO2? Global warming. How to reduce CO2 emissions. Main links of the CCS chain. 2. Where capture CO2? CO2 fixed emission sources worldwide. Fixed sources in France. CO2 capture potential in France. 3. Post-Combustion CO2 capture. Principles and stakes. Characteristics of post-combustion flue gases. Separation techniques potentially suitable for post-combustion CO2 capture. Technologies under development for post-combustion CO2 Capture. CO2 conditioning. Conclusion. 4. Oxy-combustion CO2 capture. Principles and stakes. Oxy-combustion. Chemical looping combustion. CO2 conditioning. Demonstrations. 5. Pre-combustion CO2 capture. Principles and stakes. Syngas production. Water-gas shift reaction. CO2 extraction. CO2 conditioning. Hydrogen combustion. Integrated power production processes with pre-combustion CO2 capture. 6. Capture and store CO2: at what cost? Calculation bases. CO2 capture costs. CO2 transport costs. CO2 storage costs. Trend in the cost of the CCS chain - Power production. Variability of CCS chain costs. Application to existing installations. Conclusion. Appendix.

Répercussions Sectorielles de L'application Du Protocole de Kyoto
Author: Randall Wigle
Publisher: Industrie Canada
ISBN:
Category : Nature
Languages : fr
Pages : 148
Book Description
This paper looks at Canada's compliance with its Kyoto Protocol obligations, focussing on 2 questions: What sectors are likely to be the hardest hit (and, conversely, which might benefit) from various modalities of compliance? How do the costs of compliance change when the domestic implementation plan exempts some sectors? The analysis is conducted using a simulation model of the world economy. Specifically, a static Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model based on the Global Trade Analysis Project data is used. The analysis identifies 31 sectors and 11 regions. The study first looks at 2 core cost-effective policy approaches (national and global carbon permit trading) by way of placing the model's results in the context of other existing CGE carbon models.

Canadian Energy Efficiency Outlook
Author: Pierre Langlois
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 8770222614
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 330
Book Description
Energy Efficiency (EE) has been recognized since the early 1970s as the most relevant mechanism to optimize the way we meet our energy needs. The rationale behind this book is to present where the Canadian EE sector stands today to all Canadian stakeholders and those interested around the world. The Canada Energy Efficiency Outlook aims to outline the different environments that support EE development in our highly diversified provinces and territories, as well as at the national level, and consequently allow the reader to better understand the complexities involved. More globally, this book serves as an important reference for all interested parties on how Canada has variably innovated and developed mechanisms to achieve the goal of making this country more energy efficient.
