Toshiba is growing the use of its CO2 capture technology, with plans for new installations at thermal power plans
Carbon capture can reduce CO2 emissions by: Decarbonizing industries that can’t — at least in the near term — practically eliminating CO2 as a byproduct of their industrial processes, such as cement and steel production. Serving as a ready-now stopgap as industries work to decarbonize pr...
Carbon capture: How to trap a gasExtracting CO2 from power station exhausts is the costliest part of carbon capture and storage, so extensive research is under way to improve efficiencydoi:10.1016/S0262-4079(11)60702-1StuartHaszeldineandVivianScottNSTLThe New Scientist...
How do you capture carbon? For factory carbon-capture, emissions arerouted through a vessel with a liquid solventwhich essentially absorbs the carbon dioxide. From there, the solvent has to be heated up in a second tower — called a "stripper" or "regenerator" — to remove the CO2, where...
“Carbon capture, utilisation and storage, or CCUS, is an important emissions reduction technology that can be applied across the energy system,” reads a statement issued by theInternational Energy Agency. Read on to find out more about the carbo capture revolution and how technologies are set ...
There are four central steps to the carbon capture and storage process chain: Capture Compression Transport Utilisation and storage Every step of this chain is critical to carbon management, starting with the capture of CO2from industrial emissions. T...
Carbon capture is having a moment. Companies such as Chevron Corp. are building technology to capture carbon dioxide from smokestacks while others such as Microsoft Corp. are investing in startups working to yank the greenhouse ...

Can climate objectives be achieved without carbon capture? Capturing carbon is consistently an integral part of the low-cost power transformation. While some may argue such technologies seem to justify the use of fossil fuels, they still play an important role in supporting energy and climate securi...
