Overview of Carbon Reduction, Capture, Utilization and Storage: Development of New Framework

Abstract

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is one of the provisional technologies to mitigate the rise of greenhouse gases emission which comes from carbon dioxide (CO2) emission. The growth and development of CCS technology leads to existence of carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) technologies due to immature technologies of CO2 storage. Criticality of carbon reduction attracts researchers to study the efficiency of implementing CCS and CCUS latest technologies with economic and environmental goals. This paper discusses the overview of the technologies and the work done by researchers on strategies of implementation of CCS and CCUS. This paper also focuses on the optimal planning of CCS and CCUS technologies. A new framework for carbon reduction, capture, utilization and storage (CARSUS) is introduced for future development. CARCUS is expected to present the best route for carbon dioxide avoidance.
