Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are the main cause of the greenhouse effect.
CO2 Capture and Storage (CCS) is an effort to reduce CO2 emissions. There
are some technologies to capture CO2 in industry, namely Pre-combustion,
Post combustion and Oxy-fuel combustion technologies. The Zero Emissions
Petrol Vehicle (ZEPV) concept is one of the possibilities to eliminate CO2
emissions from the transportation sector.
Reactions between CO2 and H2, such as methanol synthesis and methanation,
could play an important role to overcome these emissions. The low methanol
yield, both selectivity and conversion, is the main problem in the methanol
synthesis. Methanation could be considered as another alternative process
because the recent research showed that the yield in methanation process is
high, the conversion of CO2 to CH4 was nearly 100%.
The book is divided into two sections dealing with hydrogenation of CO2 and
technology of CO2 capture, storage, and utilization. This book is aimed at
undergraduate and master students and those beginning a research career in
CO2 capture, storage, and utilization. It covers most of the main themes in
hydrogenation of CO2. The sources of CO2 are from combustion engine,
especially in the transportation sector
