The control of greenhouse gas emissions continues to be a major global problem. It is inter-disciplinary, both in substance and approach, and covers technical, political and economic issues involving governments, industry and the scientific community. These proceedings contain 220 papers presented at the 5th International Conference on Greenhouse Gas Control Technologies (GHGT-5) held in August 2000 at Cairns, Queensland, Australia. The papers cover the capture of carbon dioxide, geological storage of carbon dioxide, ocean storage of carbon dioxide, storage of carbon dioxide with enhanced hydrocarbon recovery, utilisation of carbon dioxide, other greenhouse gases, fuel cells, alternative energy carriers, energy efficiency, life cycle assessments and energy modelling, economics, international and national policy, trading and accounting policy, social and community issues, and reducing emission from industry and power generation.

Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is increasingly viewed as one of the most significant ways of dealing with greenhouse gas emissions. Critical to realising its potential will be the design of effective legal regimes at national and international level that can handle the challenges raised but without stifling a new technology of potential great public benefit. These include: long-term liability for storage; regulation of transport; the treatment of stored carbon under emissions trading regimes; issues of property ownership; and, increasingly, the sensitivities of handling the public engagement and perception. Following its publication in 2011, Carbon Capture and Storage quickly became required reading for all those interested in, or engaged by, the need to implement regulatory approaches to CCS. The intervening years have seen significant developments globally. Earlier legislative models are now in force, providing important lessons for future legal design. Despite these developments, the growth of the technology has been slower in some jurisdictions than others. This timely new edition will update and critically assess these updates and provide context for the development of CCS in 2018 and beyond.

Die vorliegende Studie ist Ergebnis einer in Namibia und Deutschland durchgeführten Literaturrecherche zu sedimentgebundenen Blei-Zink- (Kupfer-Barium)-Vorkommen in den Pan-Afrikanischen Kaoko- und Gariep- Faltengürteln der nördlichen und südlichen Küstenregion Namibias. Die Literaturstudie zeigt, dass metallogenetische Untersuchungen der Buntmetallmineralisationen in diesen orogenen Gürteln Namibias einen aktuellen Forschungsschwerpunkt darstellen. Begründet liegt dies unter anderem in den vergleichsweise begrenzten, derzeit bekannten Rohstoffvorräten an Zink, Blei,Baryt, Silber und Kupfer, die zukünftig einen erhöhten Innovationsbedarf haben und somit verstärkte Explorationsanstrengungen erfordern. Dies wird auch deutlich durch die defizitäre Bilanz aus Zinkproduktion und -nachfrage von 1994 bis 1999 der westlichen Welt. Insbesondere seit den neunziger Jahren wurden in Namibia verstärkt Explorationsinvestitionen durch internationale Explorations- und Bergbaufirmen getätigt. Das Land verfügt über eine lange und erfolgreiche Bergbautradition, deren Wurzeln in einer relativ stabilen politischen Situation, exzellenter Infrastruktur, einem modernen Bergrecht und hochwertigen, gut zugänglichen geologischen und geophysikalischen Daten begründet liegen. - Schlieilich bietet sich die Anwendung der Ga/Ge-Geothermometrie von Sphalerit an und diese sollte in verschiedenen Erzparagenesen der Rosh Pinah Lagerstätte getestet werden. Hierbei verspricht ein kritischer Vergleich der geochemisch ermittelten TGa/Ge mit der mikrothermometrisch bestimmten TF.I. und vor allem der Gebrauch des Verhältnisses TGa/Ge / TF.I. als Proximitätsindikator auch einen positiven Beitrag zur metallogenetischen Grundlagenforschung.
