Negative Emissions Technologies for Climate Change Mitigation

Negative Emissions Technologies for Climate Change Mitigation provides a comprehensive introduction to the full range of technologies that are being researched, developed, and deployed in order to transition from our current energy system, dominated by fossil fuels, to a negative-carbon emissions system. After an introduction to the challenge of climate change, the technical fundamentals of natural and engineered carbon dioxide removal and storage processes and technologies are described. Each NET is then discussed in detail, including the key elements of the technology, enablers and constraints, governance issues, and global potential and cost estimates. Students, researchers, engineers, and policy makers working in renewable and sustainable energy require a concise but comprehensive treatment of the range of technologies that can deliver negative carbon emissions, with sufficient depth to elucidate the physical, chemical, and biological fundamentals, as well as the breadth to cover both the current mainstream and also the leading edge of R&D (such as bio-mimetic technologies including artificial photosynthesis, electro-geochemistry, etc). Negative Emissions Technologies for Climate Change Mitigation offers this complete overview of the field and enables the community to gain a full appreciation of NETs without the need to seek out and refer to a multitude of sources.
