This book is the first systematic presentation of the technical, legal, and economic forces that must coalesce to realize carbon dioxide capture and geologic sequestration as a viable CO2 reduction strategy. It synthesizes key engineering data and explains the technological and legal conditions that must be in place for carbon sequestration to be realized.

Due to their innovative properties, the chemistry of carbon rich compounds is now one of the most interesting developments in the field of nano chemistry. New molecules with exciting novel properties underline the importance of this topic straddling organic synthesis and material science.
This book focuses on the synthesis of these compounds, adopting a particularly appropriate approach.
