Carbon Capture and Storage Workshop
CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION: MAKING PROGRESS IN CHALLENGING TIMES May 4, 2016 DIQA – University of Sevilla (Seville – Spain)
Energy demand grows every day. With the global population set to rise from 7 to 9 billion by 2050, and the rapidly industrialization of developing countries such as China or India, world energy demand is expected to significantly increase over the next decades.
The utilization of fossil fuel to meet high-energy demands entails large emissions of CO2 if new policy measurements are not taken. The solution to achieve CO2 emission reduction targets is a combination of energy efficiency, renewable energy and Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technologies.
During this workshop, some of the recent milestones achieved in the CCS community were examined, with emphasis in Carbon Capture technology in Europe and USA, as well as scrutinize some of the challenges ahead.
