Industrial Decarbonization : Materials, Methods, and Developments

Materials and processes for industrial decarbonization, including CO2 management technologies, are being developed to reduce the carbon footprint for CO2-intensive industries, including power plants, the chemical and refining industries, and construction/building sectors.

This book, the first of its kind in industrial decarbonization, presents the research and development efforts in materials and processes for industrial decarbonization, including but not limited to chemical, cement, iron/steel, paper/pulp, building and other industries. • Discusses global efforts to decarbonize industrial processes through continuous advances in the development of novel thermo-, electro- and photocatalytic materials and processes for decarbonization at or beyond the R&D stage. • Presents life cycle assessment (LCA) and technical-economic analyses (TEA) to measure environmental impacts and determine the feasibility of advanced decarbonization technologies. • Introduces the industrial decarbonization market, focusing on the market-based strategies to reduce carbon emissions. • Outlines challenges of the development of advanced materials for CCUS technologies. • Discusses computational modelling work with respect to carbon mitigation materials. Featuring expert experience from academia, national labs, and industry, this book guides readers in chemical, process, construction, and related industries to confidently design and specify decarbonization technology-related materials and methods.
