The Captured: A True Story of Abduction by Indians on the Texas Frontier

Product Information

Don't let the title fool you, this is not just a single story. There are numerous stories about abduction on the western frontier in The Captured, and most of them are written with all the enticement of a newspaper headline w/photo. United States: In 2021, the US passed the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), which provides approximately USD 12 billion across the CCUS value chain through 2026. In 2022, the Department of Energy announced important new funding opportunities under the IIJA, including USD 45 million for CCUS in power and industrial applications; USD 820 million for large-scale carbon capture pilot projects; and USD 1.7 billion for carbon capture demonstration projects. In April 2023 the United States announced a ‘ ’Carbon Management Challenge’’ ahead of the 28th Conference of the Parties (COP), inviting countries to accelerate CCUS internationally. Canada: As part of its Budget 2023, Canada proposed an expansion and additional design details for its investment tax credit for CCUS projects. The changes allow dual-use equipment for heat and power to qualify for the tax credit and establish third-party certification requirements for CO 2 storage in concrete, among other things. Based on polymeric or inorganic devices (membranes) with high CO 2 selectivity, which let CO 2 pass through but act as barriers to retain the other gases in the gas stream.

Whilst hydrogen produced by a process called electrolysis of water using renewable power has very low CO 2 emissions, it is currently expensive. A cheaper and more mature option to enable the conversion to hydrogen to be started is to produce hydrogen from natural gas. This process is called methane reformation. However, the CO 2 produced in the reforming process must also be captured and stored.Widely used for decades and currently applied in a number of small and large-scale projects worldwide in power generation, fuel transformation and industrial production.

However, these carbonation reactions are very slow under normal conditions and to speed it up would need energy to increase temperature and pressure to ideal levels. After reading News of the World and The Son this year, I was intrigued by the real-life accounts of kids who were kidnapped and adopted by the Comanche, Apache, and other Southern Plains tribes in the late 1800s. The real stories were every bit as sensational as the fictionalized accounts, and I could definitely see where the authors of those novels drew on historical accounts.In a combined heat and power plant (also known as a co-generation plant), waste heat is used simultaneously to generate more electricity and heat for industrial and domestic heating, including for houses, hospitals and schools. Ordinary power plants that burn coal, petroleum or natural gas do not convert all of their heat into electricity. In most fossil fuel power plants, more than half is lost as waste heat.
