PALO ALTO, Calif. -- The Technical Insights practice at Frost & Sullivan is pleased to announce its 2008 Quarterly Analyst Briefing Presentation on the North American fuel cells market to be held on Wednesday, July 23, 2008 at 8:00 a.m. PDT.

Carbon capture is an employable instrument that reduces carbon dioxide emissions from industries and power plants. Pre-combustion and post-combustion carbon capture technologies are two methods power industries actively pursue to control carbon emissions. Increasing costs, lack of regulatory direction, integrating capture and storage are among the challenges the carbon capture industry faces.

This briefing will benefit the power industry (equipment manufacturers and utilities), oil and gas industry, iron and steel manufacturers, and cement manufacturers. Highlights of the briefing include: Technology snapshot, recent global developments, key highlights, and future trends in relation to pre-combustion and post-combustion carbon capture.

"Power industries and research organizations in Europe, U.S. and Australia are active in developing and enhancing carbon capture technologies," observes Research Analyst Elaine Chan. "Although faced with regulatory uncertainties and rising costs, notable developments have taken place in hopes of commercializing carbon capture and storage technologies."
