This book focuses on the recent trends in carbon management and
up-to-date information on different carbon management strategies
that lead to manage increasing concentration of atmospheric carbon
dioxide. The growing evidence of climate change resulting from the
continued increase of atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration has
made it a high profile political-social and trade issue. The mean
global average earth temperature rose by 0.6+/- 2 DegreesC during
the second half of the century with the rate of 0.17
DegreesC/decade. As per GISS data in the year of 2017, it rose 0.9
DegreesC (1.62 DegreesF) above the 1951-1980 mean global
temperature. Recently World Meteorological Organization analyzes
the past record temperature and found the past 10 years were the
warmest years about 1.1 DegreesC above preindustrial level. Over
the past decade, carbon management by various techniques has to
come to fore as a way to manage carbon dioxide emissions
contributing to climate change. The proposed book addresses the
need for an understanding of sustainable carbon dioxide management
technologies mainly focused on (a) minimizing carbon dioxide
emission from sources; (b) maximizing environmentally sound recuse,
reduce and recycling; (c)emerging technology toward carbon dioxide
mitigation and d) converting carbon dioxide into valuable products
form sustainable use. Other books related to carbon management
attempt to cover the carbon capture and sequestration, carbon
mineralization, utilization and storage but the topic of CO2
management strategies is not discussed in detail for sustainable
development. Furthermore, this book also covers all physical,
chemical and biological process for long-term capture, removal and
sequestration of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere for sustainable
management which is not described in other carbon management books.
In order to meet CO2 emissions reduction target, a range of
technological approaches, including development of clean fuels and
clean coal technologies, adopting cleaner and more energy
efficiency and conservation, developing renewable energy and
implementing CCS technologies, will also be considered for
sustainable future.
