A DISCUSSION ABOUT CARBON CAPTURE

Abstract

The paper discusses the challenges and opportunities of carbon capture and utilization (CCU) and carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies. This is the process of capturing CO2 from industrialemissions and using it to produce synthetic fuels, chemicals, and other materials, or storing it underground. The paper also discusses the potential benefits of these technologies and the challenges of these technologies, such as their high cost and the limited availability of storage sites. The authors argue that they have the potential to create jobs, improve air quality, and make fossil fuels more sustainable but also potential risks, such as the risk of leakage from storage sites. Carbon capture technologies are still in their early stages of development, but they have the potential to play a major role in reducing global heating. Continued research and development, and supportive government policies, are required for CCS play a significant role. Carbon credits can be an instrument to boost the energy transition process.
