Abstract

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a technology to reduce anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions into the atmosphere. CO2 is captured at large stationary sources, such as fossil fuel–fired power plants, and is injected into the deep subsurface for long-time storage. In this chapter, the three main components of CCS are discussed: (1) capture of CO2 at large stationary sources, (2) transport of captured CO2 to storage sites, and (3) injection into the subsurface for storage. Potential roadblocks for implementation of this technology are also discussed.
