“…There are currently four incineration plants that are coupled with carbon capture technologies in the world, which are located in Norway and Japan, and there are two plants in the Netherlands. While incineration is often viewed negatively as a waste management method, it can be an economically viable option when coupled with carbon capture technologies [49]. These plants are using various carbon capture technologies, such as an alkaline aqueous amine method introduced by Toshiba in Japan, which is used to collect CO 2 for local cultivation and algae culture formation.…”

Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are a serious hazard to human life and the ecosystem. This is the reason that many measures have been put in place by the International Energy Agency (IEA) to reduce the anthropogenic-derived CO2 concentration in the atmosphere. Today, the potential of renewable energy sources has led to an increased interest in investment in carbon capture and storage technologies worldwide. The aim of this paper is to investigate state-of-the-art carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies and their derivations for the identification of effective methods during the implementation of evidence-based energy policies. To this extent, this study reviews the current methods in three concepts: post-combustion; pre-combustion; and oxy-fuel combustion processes. The objective of this study is to explore the knowledge gap in recent carbon capture methods and provide a comparison between the most influential methods with high potential to aid in carbon capture. The study presents the importance of using all available technologies during the post-combustion process. To accomplish this, an ontological approach was adopted to analyze the feasibility of the CCS technologies available on the market. The study findings demonstrate that priority should be given to the applicability of certain methods for both industrial and domestic applications. On the contrary, the study also suggests that using the post-combustion method has the greatest potential, whereas other studies recommend the efficiency of the oxy-fuel process. Furthermore, the study findings also highlight the importance of using life cycle assessment (LCA) methods for the implementation of carbon capture technologies in buildings. This study contributes to the energy policy design related to carbon capture technologies in buildings.

“…Policy analysis finds itself at the heart of the Science-Policy Interface (SPI) [13,[45][46][47][48]. This is the boundary sphere were scientific and other knowledge oriented institutions interact closely with political institutions and public agencies.…”

“…These boundary tensions need to be managed and mediated roughly by accommodating policymaking to science (speaking truth to power) or, vice versa, by accommodating science to policymaking (sciences that serve power) [49][50][51]. Models, Simulations and Games (MSG) are among the more sophisticated methods in the policy analysis' tool box, and as such subject to many of the tensions at the SPI [45,48,52]. The boundary tensions with regard to the use and usefulness of MSG for policy making are the focus of our research.…”

How do policy analysts perceive the various roles that Models, Simulations and Games (MSG) have, or can have in Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM)? Fifty-five policy analysts in water management in The Netherlands and China were interviewed, following the procedure of the Q-method. Comparative analysis of the combined quantitative and qualitative data show that: (1) The debate on the role of MSG for IWRM is structured around five frames in The Netherlands and three frames in China. (2) The frames in The Netherlands and China are significantly different. (3) In China, there is a predominant frame that perceives MSG for IWRM as data driven simulation technology for rationalization of water management, which is less significant in The Netherlands. (4) The reverse is true with regard to MSG for stakeholder interaction, learning and integrated assessment, which are significant frames in The Netherlands, but not in China. The conclusion is that frame differences can easily confuse professional and academic debate about MSG for water management; within the same institutional and cultural context, but even more so in Netherlands-China co-operation projects. Frames are also relevant when designing, using or evaluating innovative methods for integrated water resources management.
