Carbon Capture and Environmental Sustainability

An interdisciplinary guide to carbon capture across technology, policy, and economics Of the approximately 36 billion tons of CO2 emitted annually, only about 40 million tons are currently captured and stored, highlighting a critical gap in global decarbonization efforts.Carbon Capture and Environmental Sustainability: Pathways to a Low-Carbon Future provides an integrated perspective on carbon capture technologies, climate science, carbon footprint analysis, and their integration with renewable energy systems and digitalization-driven energy optimization.The book goes beyond technical fundamentals to examine the economic, policy, social, and cultural factors that influence the deployment and scalability of carbon capture solutions.It combines engineering-based analysis with accessible discussion of how these broader dimensions shape real-world energy transition pathways..Readers gain the tools to evaluate emerging carbon capture technologies and assess real-world sustainability of pro
