A review of carbon capture and storage technologies for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from power plants.
"A review of carbon capture and storage technologies for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from power plants" is a research paper that examines various technologies designed to capture and store carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from power plants. The paper highlights the importance of mitigating greenhouse gas emissions from power plants, and provides an overview of the current state of CCS technologies.
The paper reviews different types of CCS technologies, including post-combustion capture, pre-combustion capture, and oxy-fuel combustion, and compares their relative advantages and disadvantages. It also discusses the various storage options for captured CO2, such as geological storage, ocean storage, and mineral storage.
The paper highlights the challenges associated with the implementation of CCS technologies, such as high costs, technological barriers, and regulatory issues. It also provides case studies of successful CCS projects and identifies areas for further research and development.
Overall, the paper emphasizes the need for continued research and development of CCS technologies as a key strategy for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from power plants and mitigating the impacts of climate change.
