Based on International Energy Agency studies, achievement of 450 ppm CO2-equivalent emission target in global emission means that the CO2 emissions in 2050 must be reduced to %50 of 2005 level, and this implies that a portfolio of emission reduction policies and strategies need to be exploited through current century.
At the present time, Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) Technology is a dominant strategy among all the long-term carbon abatement strategies in many countries. Nevertheless, its potential as a climate mitigating option will be proved, only if it is implemented in the countries which are developing at a great pace and taking advantage of fossil fuels in order to afford their... 

Excessive usage of fossil fuels and emissions of GreenHouse Gases (GHG) have led to many environmental problems such as climate change. The carbon dioxide emission accounts for 82% of GHG emissions and has the highest retention time in the atmosphere. The study on carbon dioxide is an important issue recently. The carbon dioxide emission from the energy and industrial sectors are 30% and 21%, respectively. It is possible to capture carbon dioxide from the flue gas may be utilized as material and fuel. Developing the utilization of carbon dioxide to replace storage is a solution for implementing carbon capture. The carbon planning model, is based on the selection of technology that is... 

Environmental contamination is one most important concern that human has encountered currently the increasing demand of power production has been lead to environmental problem, therefore it is crucial to find appropriate methods managing these sources. Carbon dioxide forming from usage of fossil fuel as the main source of energy play a central role in environmental issues of climate change in atmosphere, so more attention in its emission reduction seems vital. CCS has been used as a recent attractive in order to reduce the greenhouse gases emission for large industrial units releasing carbon dioxide. The aim of this paper is environmental and economical assessment using ccs for power plants... 

Population growth require increasing demand of Energy. The fossil fuels are the main source of energy. However, they are main source of carbon dioxide emissions. Considerable amount of fossil fuels is used in the power plants. Increasing trend of electricity consumption as well as the lack of alternative fuels such as renewables in the short time will increase the consumption of fossil fuels and emissions. The most important greenhouse gas emitted from the power plants is carbon dioxide. That's why the separation of carbon dioxide from the gas stream of power plants is necessary.Separation of the carbon dioxide by adsorption is considered in this project both experimentally and... 

Carbon dioxide is one of the main geenhouse gases emitted from factories as well as transportation vehicles that adversely affect the atmosphere and cause global warming. Among the proposed solutions to reduce carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, carbon dioxide separation would be the most viable medium-term approach. However, the high cost of carbon dioxide separation prevents the development of carbon dioxide absorption technologies. Therefore, it seems that integrating separation and production processes is the most efficient way to save energy and reduce carbon emissions. This method decrease a high proportion of the energy consumption in upstream operations (carbon dioxide removal,... 

The set processes of carbon dioxide capture, transfer and storage in underground water source, called CCS. Carbon dioxide capture and storage is a process consisting of the separation of carbon dioxide from industrial and energy-related sources, transport to a storage location and long-term isolation from the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is the most important greenhouse gases, which causes global average temperature rise and controller institutions want the companies and refineries to follow this issue.Under normal circumstances, there is minor amounts of carbon dioxide gas in the air which its concentration is close to 0.04 percent. The concentration of between 7 to 10 percent is a serious... 

Due to the increasing consumption of fossil fuels, the Earth's atmosphere is changing at an unprecedented rate due to carbon dioxide production. Therefore, its absorption, transport, and storage in underground reservoirs are suitable methods to control this vital problem. One of the options for storing carbon dioxide is to inject it into a saline aquifer. The dissolution of carbon dioxide in the upper parts of the saline aquifer increases the carbon dioxide saturated fluid density. As a result, instability due to the density difference in the reservoir fluid causes convective mixing. This phenomenon is favorable due to the significant increase in the dissolution rate of carbon dioxide in the... 

Considering the supply and demand market of natural gas, methanol, propylene and ethylene and the propylene value chain, it is expected that the design of the propylene production process from methanol produced from natural gas and its implementation in Iran country can significantly flourish the production of polypropylene, acrylonitrile and Etc. On the other hand, with the industrialization of this process, the uncontrolled export of methanol from Iran to countries such as China and the devaluation of methanol will be prevented. In this report, the process of producing synthetic gas from natural gas using autothermal reactor and heat exchange reforming, separation and storage of carbon...
