Volume 2 of Advances in Carbon Management Technologies has 21
chapters. It presents the introductory chapter again, for framing
the challenges that confront the proposed solutions discussed in
this volume. Section 4 presents various ways biomass and biomass
wastes can be manipulated to provide a low-carbon footprint of the
generation of power, heat and co-products, and of recovery and
reuse of biomass wastes for beneficial purposes. Section 5 provides
potential carbon management solutions in urban and manufacturing
environments. This section also provides state-of the-art of
battery technologies for the transportation sector. The chapters in
section 6 deals with electricity and the grid, and how
decarbonization can be practiced in the electricity sector. The
overall topic of advances in carbon management is too broad to be
covered in a book of this size. It was not intended to cover every
possible aspect that is relevant to the topic. Attempts were made,
however, to highlight the most important issues of decarbonization
from technological viewpoints. Over the years carbon intensity of
products and processes has decreased, but the proportion of energy
derived from fossil fuels has been stubornly stuck at about 80%.
This has occurred despite very rapid development of renewable
fuels, because at the same time the use of fossil fuels has also
increased. Thus, the challenges are truly daunting. It is hoped
that the technology choices provided here will show the myriad ways
that solutions will evolve. While policy decisions are the driving
forces for technology development, the book was not designed to
cover policy solutions.
