Multiphase processing for new materials

自19世纪30年代以来，人为排放的二氧化碳每年都在增加。2007年为25 Gt，估计15年内可达到35 Gt。这一产量超过了地球保持二氧化碳浓度恒定的自然能力的四分之一，并解释了过去175年来其大气浓度从270 ppm增加到400 ppm（2013年）的原因。在过去的十年里，中国大约每周都会投产一座500兆瓦的燃煤电厂。电力生产占燃料燃烧排放量的三分之一（国际能源机构，2011年）。这一趋势在未来几十年内不应改变，从而增加了对创新、高效和经济的CO2捕集的需求。来自美国的厄尼·莫尼兹今天说，煤炭将在几十年内成为美国能源结构的一部分。工业化国家必须寻找经济的解决办法来捕获CO2，因为发展中国家的发展压力如此之大，除了经济利益之外，它们没有理由采用这种方法。

Anthropogenic emissions of CO2 have increased every year since the 1830’s. With 25 Gt in 2007, it could reach an estimated 35 Gt within 15 years. This production represents an excess of one fourth the Earth’s natural capacity to maintain its CO2 concentration constant and explains the increase in its atmospheric concentration from 270 to 400 ppm (2013) over the last 175 years. During the last decade, China commissioned a 500MW coal-fired power plant every week or so. Electricity production accounts for one third of fuel burning emissions (International Energy Agency, 2011). This trend should not be modified over the next decades augmenting the need for innovative, efficient, and economical CO2 capture. Ernie Moniz from USA said today that coal is going to be part of the American’s energy mix for many decades. Industrialized countries must look for the development of economical solutions to capture CO2 because the development pressure is so for the developing countries that there will be no reason for them to adopt such processes other than an economical advantage.
