Session: Analysis and Design of Carbon Dioxide Capture Technologies for Power Generation

Carbon dioxide capture and sequestration are key components of all realistic climate change mitigation strategies. Fossil fuel based power generation produces large amounts of carbon dioxide at fixed locations and in relatively concentrated form. Capture of carbon dioxide from these sources is a logical first step in the process of reducing overall carbon release. The session will explore capture of carbon dioxide from conventional power generation sources as well as advance gasification systems.
