The current scope and stand of carbon capture storage and utilization ∼ A comprehensive review
Abstract
Over here in this paper, we have tried to present detailed information to the best of our knowledge regarding carbon capture storage and its utilization. CCU as well as CCS may be imagined with corresponding parts inside a coordinated framework that could move towards zero discharges that may be required for environment adjustment in the near times. Carbon Capture Storage may be considered as the wide-range extraction of CO2 from various important resources, it is then allowed and made ready for long-term isolation from the atmosphere and, then followed by its appropriate use. Our objective for this paper was to incorporate many technologies in these fields from the research and developmental activities which were a part of many articles and papers till date to the commercial uses and the challenges which are faced in this field and future scopes in this area. The sole purpose of the paper is to present the information in this domain available via different sources in one single paper which would help researchers a lot during their future references or research. Still, there are many kinds of research going on in this field that could be enhanced and paced up by such informative papers where all the required information is stored in a single paper.For the past twenty years, the oil industry and several scientific institutions have given importance to the concept of carbon capture and storage (CCS). A feasible method for storing carbon must be economical, environmentally friendly, and sustainable over the long term. As a result, carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) has emerged from CCS. The development of CCUS technology goes beyond the narrow focus on storage as it expanded to use carbon dioxide in oil extraction, treat alkaline industrial waste, and conversion of CO2 into useful chemicals to make this greenhouse gas economically viable. Fossil fuels will continue to be a significant source of energy in the following decades despite worldwide commitments to limit CO2 emissions. By converting high-emission industries to low-emission ones, CCUS contributes to the development of the low-emission economy of the future. Therefore, to improve our understanding of the long-term implications of developing alternative options such as large-scale CO2 injection into geological formations, carbon mineralization, and conversion of CO2 to synthesis, state-of-the-art research on carbon storage and utilization is required, and further analysis to understand the risks of CCUS from a technical, legislative, and political perspective. For individuals up for the challenge, CCUS research offers a chance to tackle technological issues that result in innovations with substantial economic and political implications for the oil and petrol sector.
