Fresh water is one of the most important resources required for human existence, and ensuring its stable supply is a critical issue for sustainable development. The effects of a general set of agriculture and water management adaptations on the size of the world’s water-stressed population...

It is important to evaluate impacts of fossil fuel price hikes and climate stabilization that force the global energy system to adopt alternative and efficient technologies by routing future energy system dynamics into a different technology roadmap. Hence, a high-regional-resolution and...

Cost effectiveness of CO2 sequestration, especially into aquifers, strongly depends on the sequestration capacities and the routes to connect CO2 sequestration sites and recovery sites. This site dependency of CO2 sequestration makes its evaluation difficult. In order to evaluate the cost...

R&D (research and development) processes of CO2 capture technologies having different levels of energy efficiency are evaluated through GERT (Graphical Evaluation and Review Technique) analyses. Five types of the technologies are targeted for evaluation: chemical absorption, physical adsorption,...
