Description:
The report documents the 1992 Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Mitigation Research Symposium held in Washington, DC, August 18-20, 1992. The symposium provided a forum for exchange of technical information on global change emissions and potential mitigation technologies. The primary objectives of the meeting were dissemination of technical information and education in recent research. Oral papers along with an international panel discussion, overheads, slides, and a GloED demonstration provided for lively exchanges in the following areas: activities in EPA, U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), and Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) on greenhouse gas emissions and mitigation research, and EPA/AEERL's global emissions and technology databases; international activities of selected industrialized and developing countries; carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and their control, disposal, and reduction through conservation and energy efficiency; carbon sequestration including utilization of waste CO2; methane emissions and mitigation technologies including such topics as coal mines, the natural gas industry, key agricultural sources, landfills and other waste management sites, and energy recovery by fuel sells; biomass emission sources and sinks, including cookstove emissions and control approaches; and solar and renewable energy sources.
