Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is well known that there is an urgent need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, highlighting the demand for effective CO2 sinks in order to mitigate carbon emissions. Innovative solutions play a crucial role in achieving a low-carbon economy. This Special Issue focuses on advancements in the optimization of carbon capture technologies aimed at reducing industrial CO2 emissions. As global efforts intensify to combat climate change, enhancing the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) has become a priority. This Special Issue will explore innovative strategies for optimizing carbon capture processes across various sectors.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Novel materials and adsorbents for CO2
- Process of energy efficiency improvements.
- Scale-up challenges and solutions for industrial applications.
- Modeling, simulation, and optimization techniques.
- Lifecycle assessments.
- Carbon capture technologies.
We invite scholars to contribute cutting-edge studies that drive the field toward more sustainable and economically viable carbon capture solutions.
