Keywords:
Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS), Pre-combustion carbon capture process, Post-combustion carbon capture, Direct Air Capture and Storage (DAC), Carbon Sequestration, Geological Basins
Abstract
The typical process of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) mainly involves the capture of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from various industrial processes or from the flue or stack gas which is generated as a result of burning of fossil fuels. Therefore, the main processes of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) basically categorized as post-combustion carbon capture, pre-combustion carbon capture and oxy-fuel combustion systems. The first method is specially used in various steel and power plants whereas the pre-combustion carbon capture process is mainly employed in different industrial processes. Apart from these techniques, Direct Air Capture and Storage (DAC) method is also used in order to capture CO2 directly from ambient air. The main characteristics of the CCS process includes capturing CO2 from the point sources of where it is been produced such as, smokestacks of iron and steel factories and then transporting the captured CO2 to the storage site for subsequent sequestration. The captured CO2 is firstly compressed to a liquid form and then it is being transported via ship or in a pipeline to store beneath the ground where it is geologically sequestrated by injecting it into porous rock formations in geological basins.
