Climate change mitigation and adaptation
The escalating levels of atmospheric CO2 have underscored the necessity for developing effective carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies. This study investigates the advancements in post-combustion CO2 capture technologies, specifically examining the efficiency of amine-based absorption and...
Water, Energy and/or Food Nexus
An economic system focused on low energy usage, low pollution, and low emission is known as a "low-carbon economy". The concept of environmentally friendly and low-carbon food packaging architecture directs practice growth and reform in accordance with the customer's green psychology. As the primary...
Ecosystems and Natural Resources Management
In terms of sustainable land use management, it is extremely important to reveal the land conditions and the changes that occur on the land in certain periods. In this study, using CORINE data for Düzce province, land use status and transitions between land-use classes over 28 years were...
CLEANWAS
Purpose: To research the influence of different densities of Platycladus orientalis plantation on the allocation characteristics of carbon storage in the ecosystem, the density regulation experiment on the Pinus massoniana plantation with different densities was carried out to discuss the change of...
Global Environmental Change
The mineral sequestration, one of the methods of CO2 sequestration, is considered advantageous, as it not only facilitates permanent and leakage free storage of CO2 but also obviates the need for regular monitoring. Mineral sequestration involves the dissolution of minerals and subsequently...
Global Environmental Change
Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is an advanced technology that has the technical potential to provide dual advantages: (1) it helps countries maintain their hydrocarbon – driven economic advancement, such as Gulf Corporation Council countries (GCC) and (2) mitigating the negative effects of...
General
This paper summarises the results of a survey carried out amongst the student population of one of the largest Greek Technological Educational Institutes. It explores attitudes toward the environment in general and then, more specifically, toward global warming and global warming-mitigation...
General
Geologic storage of carbon dioxide (CO2) has been proposed as a viable means for reducing anthropogenic CO2 emissions. Once injection begins, a program for measurement, monitoring, and verification (MMV) of CO2 distribution is required in order to: a) research key features, effects and processes...
General
Short-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) are highly complex technical mixtures of polychlorinated n-alkanes with carbon-chain lengths from C10-C13 and chlorine content between 49 and 70%. They are produced by chlorination of n-alkanes and do not occur naturally. Because of their physical properties...
