Sentences with phrase «especially carbon capture»

• Technology improvements come as rapidly as hoped for all sources of energy and efficiency, especially carbon capture and storage.

Instead, new technologies, especially carbon capture and sequestration at large industrial plants, will need to be brought to maturity.»

«If coal is to continue as a primary component of the nation's future energy supply in a carbon - constrained world, large - scale demonstrations of carbon management technologies — especially carbon capture and sequestration — are needed to prove the commercial readiness of technologies to significantly reduce carbon dioxide emissions from coal - based power plants and other energy conversion processes,» says the report.

Third, new technologies, such as underground coal gasification and especially carbon capture and storage, can — if given substantial financial support — reduce emissions substantially from coal use in power plants and industrial facilities.

Not exact matches

They determined a material with less than 90 percent carbon and enhanced by oxygen, rather than nitrogen or sulfur, worked best for both carbon capture and methane selectivity, especially for materials activated at temperatures approaching 800 degrees Celsius.

To this end, technologies minimizing carbon emissions from cultivation, harvest, transport and conversion of biomass and, especially, long - term Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) would need to improve worldwide.

The material could be used for capturing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, and especially to clean emissions.

The United States has many promising options for obtaining new supplies of electricity and changing its supply mix during the next two to three decades, especially if carbon capture and storage and evolutionary nuclear technologies can be deployed at required scales.

RD&D on carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology is needed, especially given our conclusion that the current atmospheric CO2 level is already in the dangerous zone, but continuing issues with CCS technology [7], [244] make it inappropriate to construct fossil fuel power plants with a promise of future retrofit for carbon capture.

When breakthrough technologies for the capture and storage of carbon dioxide are commercially deployed and demonstrated to be effective, coal - fired electricity will strengthen its leading role in new electricity generation both in the United States and, perhaps more importantly, around the globe — especially in regions that desperately need a secure and plentiful source of affordable electricity.»

Other areas also hold significant promise for the industry, like technologies to capture carbon dioxide emissions and store them underground, and energy - efficiency programs, especially in the transportation sector.

RD&D on carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology is needed, especially given our conclusion that the current atmospheric CO2 level is already in the dangerous zone, but continuing issues with CCS technology [7], [244] make it inappropriate to construct fossil fuel power plants with a promise of future retrofit for carbon capture.

There are various types of technologies that can play significant roles in mitigating climate change, including energy efficiency improvements throughout the energy system (especially at the end use side); solar, wind, nuclear fission and fusion and geothermal, biomass and clean fossil technologies, including carbon capture and storage; energy from waste; hydrogen production from non-fossil energy sources and fuel cells (Pacala and Socolow, 2004; IEA, 2006b).

The reason that I bring up this topic again, especially in connection with India and China, is continued over-emphasis on «clean coal», i.e., carbon capture and sequestration.

For example, direct air capture might prove especially well - suited to recycle carbon dioxide back into the ordinary, familiar liquid hydrocarbon fuels that power today's trucks, planes, and even cars.
