Carbon Capture Technology refers to a set of processes and methods designed to capture carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions produced from the use of fossil fuels in electricity generation and industrial processes, preventing the CO2 from entering the atmosphere. This technology aims to mitigate climate change by reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Carbon capture can occur at various stages, including pre-combustion, post-combustion, and oxy-fuel combustion, each employing different techniques to separate CO2 from other gases. The captured CO2 can then be stored underground in geological formations or utilized in various industrial processes, effectively removing it from the carbon cycle. The development and implementation of carbon capture technology are considered essential for achieving global climate targets, particularly in sectors that are hard to decarbonize.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recently released its final emissions rule, which requires gas-fired power plants to reduce 90 percent of their carbon emissions by 2032. While the Biden administration…
