Techno-Economic Assesment for Carbon Capture Techniques

Abstract

Abstract This paper focuses on a techno-economic analysis for carbon capture technologies with a study of processes that apprise different grades of products purity. The cost evaluation of carbon capture and storage techniques has been discussed. It describes about the cost metrics, carbon storage and transport, aspects of energy supply, maturity, retrofitting cost of these techniques. Therefore, the three leading carbon capture techniques namely: pre-combustion, oxyfuel-combustion and post combustion carbon techniques are enlightened to review the development of carbon capture techniques and their techno economical aspects which can be beneficial for sustainable development. Carbon products streams that are generated by Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) techniques, are observed to contain the impurities at some level. The effect of these impurities for the efficient and safe storage and transportation of carbon is fundamentally major issue. Acceptability and economic viability in terms of health risks and surrounding environment are also very critical factors. The paper aims to review the various technoeconomical aspects for carbon capturing technologies in industries and different power plants in order to increase the feasibility/efficiency of CO2 storage and transport for promising future.
