Session: Sustainability of Fossil Energy (2012 Annual Meeting)

Description:

This session will highlight challenges and solutions related to improving the sustainability of fossil energy. This session will consider studies of sustainability of fossil sources of energy such as coal, natural gas, and petroleum. CCS and coal and biomass co-gasification are examples of the technologies that improve the sustainability of fossil sources of energy.
