The 2006 Stern Review and the very recent 2007 Intergovermental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report have both concluded that there is overwhelming evidence showing that climate change is a serious and urgent issue. Both reports conclude that early action is vital to stabilize greenhouse gases that are responsible for global warming. Carbon dioxide (CO2) accounts for 84% of all greenhouse gases emissions so makes it the obvious choice when considering which gas to target first.The solution to this problem is very challenging, as we need to make sure that we protect the planet and continue to enjoy a high standard of living without ruining our economy and potentially leading to an energy famine. One possibility is to capture carbon dioxide as it is produced and prevent it from reaching the atmosphere by storing it underground. This idea is the subject of this proposal.Although there are already some large scale CO2 storage projects (e.g. Sleipner in the North Sea and Weyburn between Canada and USA) they are principally due to the extraction of oil and gas and are, therefore, highly site specific. They do not address the broader issue of capturing and storing CO2 from fossil fuelled power plants / the largest contributors of anthropogenic CO2 emissions in the UK and worldwide.The major and most contentious technological barrier for the wide deployment of capture and storage technologies is integrity, as policy, regulatory and public acceptability of CCS will demand storage sites to be permanent safe repositories without leaks. Research at the interface between science and engineering and international cooperation will accelerate the technological innovation needed for ensuring the integrity of storage sites and lead to a widespread deployment of carbon capture and storage. This proposal focuses on developing a Centre for Innovation in Capture and Storage that will promote interdisciplinary activity to bring groundbreaking ideas from basic science and develop them into new products, processes and services, as well as consider public acceptability issues. Within the Centre we will train scientists and engineers with a broad and interdisciplinary set of skills suitable for their future careers in industry, research or government. The research undertaken by these scientists and engineers will be identified and inspired by a range of initiatives that will bring to the Centre a range of people including those from industry, different research areas, environmentalists and policy makers. The outcome of this research, and general awareness raising of issues around carbon capture and storage, will then be promoted. In summary, the overall aim of the Centre will be to develop a holistic view to the development of carbon capture and storage with the aim of making a significant impact in finding solutions for climate change and protecting the planet.

2006年斯特恩报告和最近的2007年政府间气候变化专门委员会（IPCC）报告都得出结论，有大量证据表明气候变化是一个严重而紧迫的问题。两份报告都得出结论，尽早采取行动对于稳定导致全球变暖的温室气体至关重要。二氧化碳 (CO2) 占所有温室气体排放量的 84%，因此在考虑首先针对哪种气体时，它是显而易见的选择。解决这个问题非常具有挑战性，因为我们需要确保保护地球并继续享受高水平的生活而不破坏我们的经济并可能导致能源饥荒。一种可能性是在二氧化碳产生时捕获它，并通过将其储存在地下来防止其进入大气。这个想法是本提案的主题。尽管已经有一些大型二氧化碳封存项目（例如北海的斯莱普纳和加拿大与美国之间的韦伯恩），但它们主要是由于石油和天然气的开采，因此高度具体地点。它们没有解决从化石燃料发电厂捕获和储存二氧化碳的更广泛问题/英国和全球人为二氧化碳排放的最大贡献者。广泛部署捕获和储存技术的主要和最具争议的技术障碍是完整性，由于 CCS 的政策、监管和公众可接受性将要求储存地点成为永久安全的储存库，不会泄漏。科学与工程与国际合作之间的交叉研究将加速确保封存地点完整性所需的技术创新，并导致碳捕获和封存的广泛部署。该提案的重点是建立一个捕获和存储创新中心，该中心将促进跨学科活动，从基础科学中引入突破性的想法，并将其开发成新产品、流程和服务，并考虑公众的可接受性问题。在该中心内，我们将培训科学家和工程师，使其具备广泛的跨学科技能，适合他们未来在工业、研究或政府的职业生涯。这些科学家和工程师进行的研究将受到一系列举措的确定和启发，这些举措将为该中心带来一系列人员，包括来自工业界、不同研究领域、环保主义者和政策制定者的人员。这项研究的成果以及对碳捕获和储存问题的普遍认识将得到推广。总之，该中心的总体目标是对碳捕获和储存的发展形成整体看法，以期在寻找气候变化解决方案和保护地球方面产生重大影响。
