  2. Economic perspectives and policy insights on carbon capture, storage, and utilization for sustainable development.

    Sarath C. Gowd, Prabakaran Ganeshan, V. Vigneswaran, et al. · 2023 · The Science of the total environment · 105 citations

    Carbon capture storage and utilization (CCSU) has the potential to become a key tool to help mitigate climate change, thus, aiding in achieving the objectives of the 2015 Paris Agreement. Even though the relevant remediation technology has achieved technical maturity to a certain extent, implementation of CCSU on a larger scale is currently limited because of non-technical parameters that include cost, legalization, lack of storage reservoir, and market mechanism to penalize CO2 emitter. Among these, cost emerges as the primary barrier to the dissemination of CCSU. Hence, necessary policy frameworks and incentives must be provided by governing agencies to enable faster dissemination of carbo

  4. Prospective techno-economic and life cycle assessment: a review across established and emerging carbon capture, storage and utilization (CCS/CCU) technologies

    Pingping Wang, A. Robinson, Stavros Papadokonstantakis · 2024 · Frontiers in Energy Research · 65 citations

    Carbon Capture, Storage and Utilization (CCS/CCU) is critical for achieving net-zero emissions. Although the recent surge in CCS/CCU projects announcement, there is a clear gap between announced capacity (around 400 Mt CO₂ per year) and the Net Zero Emissions (NZE) scenario deployment target (around 1 Gt per year) by 2030. This review examines breakthroughs and advancements across both established and emerging CCS/CCU systems with different Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs) in various industrial sectors, emphasizing the necessity of prospective assessments for their acceleration and scalability. It examines the development and application of prospective Life Cycle Assessment (pLCA) and pros

  8. A Patent Bibliometric Analysis of Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) Technology

    Yao-Zong Zhu, Ye-Zhu Wang, Baohuan Zhou, et al. · 2023 · Sustainability · 22 citations

    Large amounts of CO2 from human socioeconomic activities threaten environmental sustainability. Moreover, uncontrolled resource use and lack of relevant technology exacerbate this issue. For this reason, carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) technology has gained worldwide attention. Many scholars have researched CCUS, but few have used CCUS patent bibliometric analysis from a unified perspective. This article aims to provide a conclusive analysis for CCUS researchers and policymakers, as well as summarize the innovation trends, technological distribution, and topic evolution. Based on 11,915 pieces of patent data from the Derwent Innovations Index, we used bibliometric analysis an

  19. A Comprehensive Assessment of the Carbon Footprint of the Coal-to-Methanol Process Coupled with Carbon Capture-, Utilization-, and Storage-Enhanced Oil Recovery Technology

    Xin-Yu Li, Bin Zhou, Wei Jin, et al. · 2024 · Sustainability · 7 citations

    The process of coal-to-methanol conversion consumes a large amount of energy, and the use of the co-production method in conjunction with carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) technology can reduce its carbon footprint. However, little research has been devoted to comprehensively assessing the carbon footprint of the coal-to-methanol (CTM) co-production system coupled with CCUS-enhanced oil recovery technology (CCUS-EOR), and this hinders the scientific evaluation of its decarbonization-related performance. In this study, we used lifecycle assessment to introduce the coefficient of distribution of methanol and constructed a model to calculate the carbon footprint of the process of
