In an exclusive interview with Bloomberg’s Angela Macdonald-Smith, IEA Executive Director Nobuo Tanaka called on governments, companies and investors to step up efforts on projects that capture CO₂ to have a chance of meeting emissions targets.

 

In Energy hungry Asia, where countries like China and India are looking at coal as a key resource for power generation and conversion into liquid fuels and chemicals, there is an even stronger need to develop Carbon Capture & Sequestration capabilities, especially where gross CO2 emissions are especially high.

 

That’s where forums like CO2 Capture, Sequestration & Utilization step in. To be held on 5-6March 2009 in Beijing, the timely conference will map the latest developments in CO2 Capture for emissions reduction.

 

CO2 Capture, Sequestration & Utilization will focus on carbon capture, separation and sequestration technologies which are being or could be deployed around the world.

 

Most critically, the conference will facilitate the necessary dialogue between technology developers/purveyors, the industry and government representatives on the development and deployment of viable technologies in Asia-Pacific.

 

Some of the issues and technologies discussed at CO2 Capture, Sequestration & Utilization:

• Integrating Coal-to-Liquids, Gas-to-Liquids and Power Generation with CCS
• Current International Cooperation/Partnership on CCS
• Environmental, Regulatory Framework and Incentives, Socio-Economics challenges
• Current CO2 Capture Technologies
• CO2 Geological Storage & Criteria for Site Mapping
• Other Applications of CO2
• Carbon Markets and Linkage with CCS

CO2 Capture, Sequestration & Utilization will feature exchange of experiences and knowledge among the scientific & engineering communities, as well as investors and government officials.

 

If your company is still not getting enough attention for work on greenhouse gas reduction technologies and want to broaden your recognition in the marketplace, then make sure you are a part of the CO2 Capture, Sequestration & Utilization.
