Shayegh, Soheil; et al. (2021): Future Prospects of Direct Air Capture Technologies: Insights From an Expert Elicitation Survey

Shayegh, Soheil; Bosetti, Valentina; Tavoni, Massimo (2021): Future Prospects of Direct Air Capture Technologies: Insights From an Expert Elicitation Survey. In Front. Clim. 3. DOI: 10.3389/fclim.2021.630893.

„This is the first study reporting technical experts‘ judgments on future costs under different scenarios, for two time periods, for two policy options, and for two different DAC technologies.“

C2G Talk: An interview with Youba Sokona: How do we include sustainable development when considering climate-altering approaches?

Context matters and without clarity on the impacts that climate-altering approaches will have from different perspectives, it will be difficult to deal with the ethical and governance dimensions, said Youba Sokona during a C2GTalk interview. He highlights the need for research that not only considers the global level, but seeks to understand the national and local levels where people’s lives are impacted.“

E. G. Novitskii; et al. (2021): Optimization of Methods for Purification of Gas Mixtures to Remove Carbon Dioxide (A Review)

E. G. Novitskii; S. D. Bazhenov; A. V. Volkov (2021): Optimization of Methods for Purification of Gas Mixtures to Remove Carbon Dioxide (A Review). In Pet. Chem. 61 (4), pp. 407–423. DOI: 10.1134/S096554412105011X.

„This review provides an analysis of modern process technologies for carbon dioxide removal from various gas mixtures (such as natural gas or hydrocarbon conversion gases in ammonia and syngas production facilities), as well as from flue gases generated during the combustion of carbon-containing feedstocks in power plants.“

Palmer, James; Carton, Wim (2021): Carbon Removal as Carbon Revival? Bioenergy, Negative Emissions, and the Politics of Alternative Energy Futures

Palmer, James; Carton, Wim (2021): Carbon Removal as Carbon Revival? Bioenergy, Negative Emissions, and the Politics of Alternative Energy Futures. In Front. Clim. 3, p. 60. DOI: 10.3389/fclim.2021.678031.

„This Perspective therefore calls for governance frameworks for carbon dioxide removal to adjudicate between conflicting approaches to achieving negative emissions not only on the basis of technical efficiency, or even ‘on-the-ground’ social and environmental impacts, but also according to compatibility with socially legitimate visions and understandings of what energy – and more specifically energy use – should ultimately be for in the post-fossil fuel era.“
