Carbon sequestration is the process involved in carbon capture and the long-term storage of atmospheric carbon dioxide (). Carbon sequestration describes long-term storage of carbon dioxide or other forms of carbon to either mitigate or defer global warming and avoid dangerous climate change. It has been proposed as a way to slow the atmospheric and marine accumulation of greenhouse gases, which are released by burning fossil fuels. Carbon dioxide is naturally captured from the atmosphere through biological, chemical, or physical processes.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Energy Terms Glossary S )〕 Artificial processes have been devised to produce similar effects,〔 including large-scale, artificial capture and sequestration of industrially produced using subsurface saline aquifers, reservoirs, ocean water, aging oil fields, or other carbon sinks. == Description == Carbon sequestration is the process involved in carbon capture and the long-term storage of atmospheric carbon dioxide ()〔 and may refer specifically to: * "The process of removing carbon from the atmosphere and depositing it in a reservoir."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Glossary of climate change acronyms )〕 When carried out deliberately, this may also be referred to as carbon dioxide removal, which is a form of geoengineering. * Carbon capture and storage, where carbon dioxide is removed from flue gases (e.g., at power stations) before being stored in underground reservoirs. * Natural biogeochemical cycling of carbon between the atmosphere and reservoirs, such as by chemical weathering of rocks. Carbon sequestration describes long-term storage of carbon dioxide or other forms of carbon to either mitigate or defer global warming and avoid dangerous climate change. It has been proposed as a way to slow the atmospheric and marine accumulation of greenhouse gases, which are released by burning fossil fuels.〔 Carbon dioxide is naturally captured from the atmosphere through biological, chemical or physical processes. Some anthropogenic sequestration techniques exploit these natural processes,〔 while some use entirely artificial processes. Carbon dioxide may be captured as a pure by-product in processes related to petroleum refining or from flue gases from power generation. sequestration includes the storage part of carbon capture and storage, which refers to large-scale, artificial capture and sequestration of industrially produced using subsurface saline aquifers, reservoirs, ocean water, aging oil fields, or other carbon sinks. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Carbon sequestration」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
