This book was released on 2019-02-22 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the quest to mitigate the buildup of greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere, researchers and policymakers have increasingly turned their attention to techniques for capturing greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane, either from the locations where they are emitted or directly from the atmosphere. Once captured, these gases can be stored or put to use. While both carbon storage and carbon utilization have costs, utilization offers the opportunity to recover some of the cost and even generate economic value. While current carbon utilization projects operate at a relatively small scale, some estimates suggest the market for waste carbon-derived products could grow to hundreds of billions of dollars within a few decades, utilizing several thousand teragrams of waste carbon gases per year. Gaseous Carbon Waste Streams Utilization: Status and Research Needs assesses research and development needs relevant to understanding and improving the commercial viability of waste carbon utilization technologies and defines a research agenda to address key challenges. The report is intended to help inform decision making surrounding the development and deployment of waste carbon utilization technologies under a variety of circumstances, whether motivated by a goal to improve processes for making carbon-based products, to generate revenue, or to achieve environmental goals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life-cycle assessment of new energy solutions plays an important role in discussions about global warming mitigation options and the evaluation of concrete energy production and conversion installations. This book starts by describing the methodology of life-cycle analysis and life-cycle assessment of new energy solutions. It then goes on to cover, in detail, a range of applications to individual energy installations, national supply systems, and to the global energy system in a climate impact context. Coverage is not limited to issues related to commercial uses by consultants according to ISO norms. It also emphasizes life-cycle studies as an open-ended scientific discipline embracing economic issues of cost, employment, equity, foreign trade balances, ecological sustainability, and a range of geo-political and social issues. A wealth of applications are described and a discussion on the results obtained in each study is included. Example areas are fossil and nuclear power plants, renewable energy systems, and systems based on hydrogen or batteries as energy carriers. The analysis is continued to the end-users of energy, where energy use in transportation, industry and home are scrutinized for their life-cycle impacts. Biofuel production and the combustion of firewood in home fireplaces and stoves are amongst the issues discussed. A central theme of the book is global warming. The impacts of greenhouse gas emissions are meticulously mapped at a depth far beyond that of the IPCC reports. A novel and surprising finding is that more lives will be saved than lost as a direct consequence of a warmer climate. After a 2oC increase in temperature, the reduction in death rates in areas with cold winters would outweigh the increase in the death rates in hot climates. However, this is only one of several impacts from greenhouse gases, and the remaining ones are still overwhelmingly negative. The fact that some population groups may benefit from higher temperatures (notably the ones most responsible for greenhouse gas emissions) whilst others (who did not contribute much to the problem) suffer is one of the main points of the book. The book is suitable as a university textbook and as a reference source for engineers, managers and public bodies responsible for planning and licensing.

Download or read book Life-cycle Environmental Assessment of the Nuclear Production of Hydrogen Using the Sulfur-iodine Cycle written by William C. Lattin and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The threat of global warming due to greenhouse gases in the earth's atmosphere has prompted reexamination of the use of fossil fuels for transportation. Several alternative fuels are proposed including ethanol, bio-fuels, hydrogen, and others. Each has advantages and disadvantages, primary energy requirements and environmental emissions. Life-cycle environmental assessments have been performed on a number of alternative fuels. As an energy carrier, hydrogen produced using nuclear energy appears to be the most promising based on lowest greenhouse gas emissions. The U.S. Congress established a goal of 2.5 million light-duty passenger vehicles powered by hydrogen on the road by 2020. Using hydrogen instead of petroleum-based fuel will reduce carbon-dioxide emissions by over 99 percent. However, progress toward that goal has been less than desired from the aspects of nuclear reactor development and construction, fuel-cell vehicle development and deployment, and infrastructure development. The U.S. Department of Energy has selected the sulfur-iodine thermochemical cycle, coupled with a very high-temperature nuclear reactor, as a candidate process for the production of hydrogen. Thermochemical water-splitting processes generate no greenhouse gas emissions during operation unlike the current method of hydrogen production from steam reforming of methane from natural gas. However, nuclear-hydrogen plant construction, nuclear fuel fabrication, installation and operation, as well as raw material and chemical inventories deplete natural resources, consume energy, and emit greenhouse gases. A cradle-to-grave life-cycle assessment of the sulfur-iodine process is performed with respect to significant environmental aspects using the international standard for life-cycle environmental assessment, ISO-14040. Production of hydrogen using the sulfur-iodine process results in emission of 2500g CO2/kg H2, much lower greenhouse gas emissions than steam reforming of methane. Lack of progress on the design and construction of a very high-temperature nuclear reactor has hindered development of the sulfur-iodine cycle. When the heat source and the production method are developed and tested, implementation of the hydrogen economy will require an aggressive construction schedule to build the number of nuclear-hydrogen plants required in the time necessary.
