Carbon capture and storage
To meet the objective of balancing economic prosperity, energy security, and environmental protection, a natural gas gasification process within a downhole completion tool is proposed that converts methane wells into hydrogen production wells, while simultaneously capturing the process-generated carbon downhole and reinjecting the carbon dioxide into the surrounding g…
The updated joint development agreement allows the companies to carve out new markets while they complete pilot testing at a demonstration plant in the Netherlands.
The US supermajor aims to speed the commercialization of a new liquid solvent that strips carbon dioxide from industrial flue gas.

Decades of experience injecting fluids into the ground has revealed a fundamental truth: No two injection sites are the same. A thorough understanding of site-specific conditions is essential to ensure safe and secure long-term subsurface disposal of carbon dioxide.

The region stands to benefit from TotalEnergies’ experience as a partner in Norway’s Northern Lights CCS development to decarbonize industrial operations in northern Europe. The first injection of carbon dioxide at Northern Lights is expected in 2024.

Because the basics of CCS and CCUS are mostly familiar to a large part of the readership, I am choosing to bring to your attention the summary of those articles that are devoted to approaches other than or beyond CCS, even if they have to climb further on the development ladder. These include bio-based approaches, geothermal, and use of hydrogen as a substitute fuel.

Under the new agreement, ExxonMobil will capture, transport, and store carbon from Nucor’s direct reduced iron plant in Louisiana.
-
The innovations in the carbon removal space are gaining attention for their potential to curb global climate change, but they each face particular challenges in implementation.
