Carbon Capture
Carbon capture refers to a set of technologies and processes designed to capture carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions produced from the use of fossil fuels in electricity generation and industrial processes. The primary goal of carbon capture is to prevent CO2 from entering the atmosphere and contributing to climate change.The process typically involves three main steps: the capture of CO2 from the exhaust gases, the compression and transport of the captured CO2, and the storage or utilization of the CO2, which can involve geological storage deep underground or using it in various industrial applications. Carbon capture can be applied to different sources of emissions, including power plants, cement manufacturing, and steel production.Effective carbon capture can play a significant role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and is considered a crucial technology in efforts to mitigate global warming and achieve climate targets.
