报告摘要

A well-known book titled “Chemistry theCentral Science” has been republished up to its 13th edition in 2014,indicating that the significance of chemistry is well recognized in thedevelopment of science and technology. For energy sustainability, the role ofchemistry is crucial. The carbon energy creates human civilization, which isnow threatened in return by carbon emission for its sustainability. The conceptof green carbon science is then proposed as the scientific basis for theintegration of highly efficient carbon resource processing and utilization, lowcarbon emission, and carbon chemical recycling. Green carbon science is definedas study and optimization of the transformation of carbon chemical bonding andthe relevant processes involved in the entire carbon cycle from carbon resourceprocessing, carbon energy utilization, CO2 fixation, and carbon recycling tominimize the carbon imbalance caused by over-consumption of carbon resources.The objective is clearly energy sustainability.

The chemistry basics for carbon energy,such as elements, bonds, and molecules are briefly introduced. The essence ofchemistry for energy conversion lies in two main aspects: hydrogen involvingchemistry and redox chemistry. The key role of hydrogen for green carbon scienceand energy sustainability is highly stressed. The redox chemistry, which is closely related to carbon energy andcarbon recycle, can be interpreted as intrinsic chemistry of green carbonscience. Chemistry for energy storage and chemical engineering approaches arealso discussed.

Four Phases I, II, III and IV can bediscriminated for different conversion reactions and related processes in thegraphic expression of green carbon science, they are: low carbon fossilresource processing, biomass conversion, CO2 chemical recycling, and CO2ecological/chemical recycling, respectively. The core part of the graphicexpression is fuel and chemicals production, that is, the function of arefinery. If oil refinery is regarded as the first generation refinery, thesecond, third, fourth and fifth generation refineries will be constructed bysequentially introducing Phase I, II, III and IV processes.
