…to freeze out and plug the system. So this requires the highest purity of CCS value chains and dedicated dehydration. https://thundersaidenergy.com/2021/10/07/carbon-capture-on-ships-raising-a-sail CO2 purity for CCS will generally need to be…
In post-combustion CCS facilities, amines react with CO2, which can later be re-released via steam-treating, and sent for sequestration. However, CCS plants have amine make-up rates, to replace amines that…
…6 GTpa of CCS by 2050, of which half, or 3 GTpa is conventional CCS, largely using the amine process. Typical costs and energy penalties of the amine process are…
…govern the energy efficiencies of power plants, energy penalties of CCS, energy penalties of hydrogen or energy losses in inverters and power electronics. https://thundersaidenergy.com/2023/03/23/eroei-energy-return-on-energy-invested/ How much metal or material? The…
This data-file captures 65 carbon capture and storage (CCS) facilities around the world, of which c30 are currently running, with capacity to sequester 40MTpa of CO2. Capacity should rise 2.5x…
…also summarized 25 technologies used for this purpose. Finally, we contrast CCS to Nature Based Solutions. For of the main challenge to nature based solutions also apply to CCS. Four…
Svante is suggesting its technology can absorb 90% of CO2 in a 60-second cycle, that lasts 450,000 cycles, is not contaminated by water-vapor, and costs 50% less than conventional CCS….
…GJ/ton) and high stability; plus modular CCS plants using those solvents, such as JustCatch (40-100kTpa scale) and BigCatch (>400kTpa). The company aims to secure contracts for 10MTpa of CCS by…
…of gases; to prevent degradation, plant corrosion and toxic emissions. This might double real-world CCS costs. But it also creates more opportunity for novel CCS processes, which are rapidly emerging….
We have modeled out simple economics for Northern Lights, the most elaborate carbon capture and storage (CCS) scheme ever proposed by the energy industry (Equinor, Shell, TOTAL). The project involves…
