PRACTICAL TECHNICAL COMPARATIVE STUDY WITH ECONOMIC INDICATORS FOR CARBON DIOXIDE EMISSIONS SEQUESTRATION IN EGYPT, APPLICATION IN AN OIL FIELD IN WESTERN DESERT

Abstract

This thesis discussed firstly the environmental situation of CO2 emissions and the global coalition to counteract the problem of climate change then a simple review about different pathways to sequester emitted CO2, followed by a SWOT analysis to select best pathways applicable in Egypt, two pathways were adopted; biological sequestration and geological sequestration. For both pathways, technical model and economic calculations were proposed.
