About this ebook
Sustainable Utilization of Carbon Dioxide in Waste Management addresses all aspects of sustainable use of carbon dioxide in waste management processes and provides best practices and process improvements for carbon sequestration in the management of a variety of waste types, including carbide lime waste, construction waste, and reject brine effluents, amongst others. The book also provides underlying research on the environmental impacts of these wastes and the need for carbon capture to emphasize the importance and need for improvements of these processes. Overall, this information will be key to determining lifecycle benefits of CO2 for each newly improved waste process. This is an important source of information for environmental and sustainability scientists and engineers, as well as academics and researchers in the field who should be trying to achieve increased carbon capture in any form of waste process to reduce environmental impact. - Introduces the basic principles of carbon sequestration by alkaline solid waste (cement kiln dust, steel slag, fly ash, and carbide lime wastes), detailing the lack of current sustainability - Provides a comprehensive resource on carbon sequestration in a variety of waste processes and practical guidance on applying them to these processes - Details the need for carbon capture in these processes and the environmental impacts of not doing so - Outlines the methods for determining lifecycle benefits of CO2 for each newly developed product

She has an extensive background in environmental science, with a particular emphasis on polymerized sulfur and its applications in various industries.Suhaib Hameedi gained his BSc. in chemical engineering from Mutah University-Jordan in 2005. His graduation training was in Jordanian phosphate mines company. He joined industries through chemicals manufacturing application in Jordan until 2010, and water treatment application until 2013 in United Arab Emirates. He earned his MSc. degree in chemical engineering from the United Arab Emirates University in 2016 with a thesis about CO2 capture by steel-making residues. During his masters, he had duties as research assistant in CO2 capture using industrial wastes. In addition, he was a teaching assistant to thermodynamics for a engineering students course. He joined Zayed University (ZU) in 2016 as a Researcher in environmental studies, mainly carbonation of industrial wastes. He participated in local and international conferences through papers, posters and oral presentation. Recently he is a member of the published patent of a new apparatus for carbon sequestration submitted by Prof. AMO Mohamed.
