Carbon sequestration
Abstract: Carbon containing in atmosphere is increasing in day by day because anthropogenic activity. It is normal range 0.035% in atmosphere. In future period it will become huge problem for world. For overcoming this problem carbon sequestration is very good phenomena. Development technologies to reduce the rate of atmospheric carbon concentration. Three options to reduce atmospheric CO2 Reduction global use of energy, no carbon fuel, sequestering emission of CO2. It is important phenomena by which using we can stored atmospheric CO2. In this there are two main different types of processes like biotic and abiotic. Temperate, Terrestrial, ocean, and Agricultural hilly region has

One type of sequestration is the long-term storage of carbon in plants and trees; it is called as terrestrial sequestration. From the atmosphere, removed CO2 is either stored in plants in the form of biomass or in oceans. Sequestering carbon helps to reduce CO2 concentration in the atmosphere. Terrestrial sequestration play in reducing the growth of CO2 emission(Silver, Ostertag, & Lugo, 2000).The fossil fuel combustion increased by 40%1980 and 2000. Today the percentage of CO2 in atmosphere remained the same over this period because the excess CO2 librated is being removed by oceans, soils, forest and other natural ecosystem(R. F. Keeling, Manning, & Dubey, 2011). Carbon sequestration may be anthropogenically or natural driven process. The objective of anthropogenically Driven carbon sequestration to balance the global carbon in such way that to maintain normal range of carbon will future. Such technologies require sequestering almost all anthropogenically generated CO2 through safe, environmentally acceptable and stable with low risk of leakages (Stephens & Keith, 2008). There are different technologies for sequestration of CO2 (fig-1). All these technologies are important for future development. These technologies are can be
To control the hazard of CO2 leakage, the compression and transport process of carbon dioxide should be isolated and the pipelines should be mended

DeekshithKumar Thadishetti Professor mankerian LS 690 July 31 2015 Climate change is one of the global issue that requires multiperspective approach. One of the key cause of climate change is air pollution. Air pollution occurs as a result of release of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere. There are two key sources of air pollution that should be targeted if the air pollution is to be reduced. The first source is the industrial stationay sources, which include electric power facilities.
Exhaust of CO2 can be used for Geological sequestration. Exhaust system is required to be redesigned for this type of exhaust and collection of CO2 will be done by this in a separate reservoir, and from this reservoir this collected CO2 can be supplied to a storage unit for further processing and this will help in minimizing the carbon footprint in the
For example, changing out light bulbs to the fluorescent ones, lower shower heads, adjusting the thermostat, and much more are other solutions that can also help contribute the reduction of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Similarly, Pollan talks about how gardening can help reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the air because we are limiting how many times we have to go to the grocery store. Growing most of our own foods mean “CO2 free and dollar free” lunches (Pollan 768). This is saying that if people garden they are reducing the CO2 in the soil because of the compost they are using, which in return they are getting carbon dioxide free and dollar free lunches. Another way reusing our compost helps reduce the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is that, the compost trucks are not having
Burning fossil fuels is one of the main culprits that causes climate change because it releases gases into the atmosphere that trap in heat and create the greenhouse effect. According to Klaus S. Lackner, the director of the Center for Negative Carbon Emissions and a professor in School of Sustainable Engineering at Arizona State University,”Dumping carbon dioxide and other greenhouses gases into the air raises their concentrations in the atmosphere and causes gradual warming.” This gradual warming is causing many horrific effects
This is not the case, for technology is mere viewed as
Although, today technology has not yet progressed to the level
pH means “hydrogen potential”. (The carbon dioxide comes from the lungs during exhalation. Carbonic acid is a weak acid and is therefore in equilibrium with bicarbonate in solution. When sig- nificant amounts of both carbonic acid and bicarbonate are present, a buffer is formed, because they neutralize each other.) Under normal circumstances, there’s much more bicarbonate present than car- bonic acid (the ratio is about 20:1).
One third of the worlds soil bound carbon is in taiga and tundra areas and specifically 14% of earth’s carbon is in permafrost. Global warming is contributing to the melting of the permafrost and it is melting at an extraordinary speed thus releasing carbon dioxide into our ever so delicate planets atmosphere. The arctic tundra that withholds mass amounts of permafrost used to be a carbon sink, which safely homes carbon from the atmosphere but with global warming it is now a carbon
The large amount of carbon dioxide was produced by human activities such as burning gases, woods, and burning coal. Clearing forests also releases large amounts of carbon dioxide. Worldwide deforestation means that we don’t
Climate change is essentially a significant and long-term change for the statistical distribution of weather patterns over periods of time. Climate change is a change in the regular weather patterns such as more or fewer severe weather events. (Greenfleet, 2011) The history of the scientific discovery of climate change began in the early 19th century when ice ages and other natural changes in paleoclimate were first suspected and the natural greenhouse gases affect identified. In the late 19th century, scientist first argued that human emissions of greenhouse gases could change the climate.
And currently, I believe the US isn’t handling them to their full potential. With the state of our energy and fossil fuel in the US, we are one of the largest contributors, emitting 25% of the world’s carbon dioxide. Another part of our global climate change is the US not looking for alternative ways of producing energy. Not only does the mining and the burning cause the emission of carbon dioxide. If we continue to use the resources at a very high rate, which the world is currently doing, we will eventually run out of the resources.
Not only the future of the climate of our earth but also, the future of our generations would be determined by the amount of carbon we are planting in the atmosphere
To create something just using existing technology will not yield good results, and therefore to solve it we must have the creativity or skill in this field. When we already have both, then we will find the
