CCS 115 Intro to Carbon Capture & Storage

examines methods of reducing atmospheric CO 2 concentrations to mitigate the effects of global climate change. CO 2 absorption processes in oceans, forests, and soils, as well as carbon capture and geologic sequestration, are examined. CO 2 utilization and technical, legal, economic, and social conditions for geologic sequestration are also discussed. This course is applicable toward all certificates and degrees; group requirements include natural science (AAS and ALS only); areas of concentration include carbon capture sequestration (credit hours 3.0, lecture hours 3.0).
