Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are excited to invite you to contribute to our Special Issue entitled ‘Innovative Approaches to Achieving Carbon Neutrality: Advancements in Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage for a Sustainable Future’. This Special Issue aims to explore cutting-edge advancements in Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) technologies, with a specific focus on their integration with combustion technologies and renewable energy systems.
As the world strives for carbon neutrality, CCUS technologies are emerging as vital components in the quest to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. This Special Issue will provide a platform for researchers to present innovative strategies and findings related to the development and application of CCUS technologies. We aim to bridge the gap between theory and practice by emphasizing real-world applications and the potential for CCUS technologies to enhance the efficiency of combustion engines, contribute to sustainable hydrogen production, and support renewable energy integration.
We encourage original research articles and reviews addressing the following areas:
- Innovations in CCUS technologies and their applications.
- The role of combustion technologies in enhancing CCUS effectiveness.
- Interactions between CCUS and renewable energy systems.
In this Special Issue, we seek to highlight the interdisciplinary nature of CCUS technology research and its critical role in sustainable development. We invite you to share your insights and contribute to this important dialogue.
Best regards,
Dr. Raouf Mobasheri
Guest Editor
