Carbon Capture

What is Carbon Capture Carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) is a critical technology in the fight against climate change, designed to reduce the emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere

Important of Carbon Capture Carbon capture is essential to mitigate climate change by reducing the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere.

Carbon Capture Technologies

Direct air capture: Removing CO2 directly from the ambient air using specialized technologies.
Pre-combustion capture: Removing CO2 before combustion, often used in integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) power plants.
Post-combustion capture: Capturing CO2 from flue gases after the combustion of fossil fuels.

Carbon Capture Policy

Governments worldwide are implementing policies to incentivize CCUS deployment.
Carbon pricing mechanisms, tax credits, and regulatory frameworks are being used to encourage adoption.

Carbon Capture and Utilization

CCU involves using captured CO2 as a feedstock for the production of valuable products, such as synthetic fuels, chemicals, and building materials.
CCU can create economic incentives for carbon capture technologies.

Role in Net-Zero Goals

Carbon capture is seen as a crucial component of achieving net-zero emissions by mid-century, as outlined in many countries' climate goals.
