Industrial Carbon Capture

What is Industrial Carbon Capture and Storage?
Industrial carbon emissions come from industrial processes and stationary emission sources, such as power stations, cement production and refineries.

Industrial carbon capture and storage involves capturing CO2 at emission sources, transporting, and then storing or burying it in a deep, underground location.

How is Industrial Carbon Dioxide Captured?
CO2 is captured in industrial settings using the following techniques.

Post-combustion – in this technique CO2 is removed after burning fuel

Pre-combustion – in this technique CO2 is trapped before burning fuel

Oxyfuel combustion – in this technique the fuel is burned in oxygen instead of air. This results in almost pure CO2 that can be transported and stored.. Read more
