The Science of Carbon Sequestration and Capture 1st Edition

The Science of Carbon Sequestration and Capture, 1st Edition by Frank R. Spellman is a timely, authoritative guide for professionals confronting the climate challenge. Clear, current and science-driven, this book captures the technical foundations and practical strategies needed to understand and implement carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) across industries and regions.

Begin with a concise explanation of the chemistry and physics behind carbon capture, then move into the range of available technologies—from point-source capture and direct air capture to biological and geological sequestration. The text balances rigorous scientific explanation with real-world applications, covering monitoring, verification, risk assessment, regulatory frameworks, and economic considerations that shape deployment in the United States, Europe, Asia and emerging markets.

Readers will appreciate the book’s practical orientation: comparisons of capture technologies, site-selection criteria for storage, lifecycle emissions accounting, and case examples that illustrate how policy, engineering and environmental stewardship intersect. It’s an indispensable resource for environmental engineers, energy professionals, policymakers, graduate students and sustainability managers seeking actionable insight.

What sets this edition apart is its emphasis on integrative problem-solving—linking technical performance to policy incentives and community acceptance—so you can evaluate solutions that are technically sound, economically viable and socially responsible. Whether you’re conducting feasibility studies, advising on climate strategy, or designing mitigation projects, this book equips you with the frameworks needed to make informed decisions.

For anyone serious about carbon management and climate mitigation, The Science of Carbon Sequestration and Capture offers a compact yet comprehensive roadmap. Order today to add a practical, globally relevant reference to your professional library.
