I am very pleased to announce that a Special Issue commemorating the 10th year anniversary of the publication of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Special Report on CO2 Capture and Storage is now on line for all to view.  

Free promotional access of the Special Issue can be found at: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/journal/17505836/40

The Special issue has been over a year in preparation and contains an Editorial and 17 papers that chart the progress made in key areas of CCS in the last ten years. It was deliberately timed to come out in advance of COP21 to provide an update on technical developments on CCS to demonstrate that the technology has not stood still since the IPCC SRCCS was issued in 2005.

The take away message from the Special Issue is:

“We can be certain that the science and the technologies supporting CCS as a climate change mitigation tool have experienced a great advance in the last 10 years, consolidating and expanding the knowledge base to estimate more accurately the impacts, risks and cost associated with large CCS projects”

I would like to thank Elsevier for granting free promotional access to the papers in this SI until 31st December 2015 through the link above.
