Report

"Geologists and petroleum engineers explore the fundamental science and engineering of storing carbon dioxide underground; environmental, social, and regulatory aspects; and case studies. The topics include calculating storage capacity using static and dynamic modeling, the role of pressure in carbon capture and storage, the risk assessment of storage complexes and public engagement in projects, the on-shore storage at the Ketzin pilot site in Germany,." --ProtoView.com, February 2014
"This book spreads itself widely, covering everything from the planning and use of storage itself to the legal frameworks (where they exist), regulation and risk assessment.Aimed at an academic and technical audience, this title offers a comprehensive review of current theory, techniques and practice." --Real Power, Autumn 2013
