" Thermal Plasma-Coupled CCUS: Exploring Sustainable Solutions for Climate Change" explores using thermal plasma with CCUS to combat climate change and promote sustainable development through waste management and carbon capture. This important text covers fundamental aspects of thermal plasma, conventional CCS technologies, plasma-coupled CCS, renewable hydrogen integration, lifecycle assessment, the role of catalysts, current global scenarios, future prospects, and the social, political, and ethical aspects of CCS in the context of combating climate change. This novel resource guides researchers and policymakers and provides insights and practical solutions for waste management, carbon capture, and sustainable development in the energy transition. This book offers a comprehensive understanding of the role of thermal plasma in Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS), a technology that involves using biomass to generate energy while capturing and storing carbon dioxide emissions produced during the process, thereby reducing greenhouse gas emissions and combating climate change. The book considers environmental and economic assessments, as well as social, political, and ethical aspects related to the adoption of this technology, which will ultimately play a crucial role in addressing the problem of climate change by offering a sustainable pathway towards curbing CO₂ emissions and promoting a circular economy where waste is managed as a resource. "Thermal Plasma-Coupled CCUS: Exploring Sustainable Solutions for Climate Change" delves into the innovative application of thermal plasma with CCUS to advance sustainable development. This unique text offers valuable insights into the opportunities, constraints, and practical implementation of thermal plasma coupled CCUS systems and practical solutions for addressing climate challenges, making it an essential resource for researchers, policymakers, and industry experts seeking to drive positive change in the global fight against climate change.
