A graphical cost-screen technique for carbon management

Research involving carbon management has received increased attention over the last decades, due to the threat posed by global warming and increases in the atmospheric Green House Gas (GHG) emission.Improving energy efficiency, use of renewable energy and carbon dioxide(CO2) capture and storage are...
