Advancements in Carbon Capture and Storage Technologies for Climate Change Mitigation

Abstract

Human behaviors have resulted in a significant rise in emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), a principal greenhouse gas (GHG) that is ‎exacerbating climate change (CLC), leading to a global temperature increase above 2°C compared to levels before industrialization. This ‎work assessed the primary methods used for carbon capture (CC). The article outlines the progress in CC, storage, and use for climate ‎change mitigation (CCM). This research aggregated data on GHG emission mitigation activities, including CC and storage (CC&S) and ‎usage, contemporary technical advancements in CC&S, and their financial, ecological, and social ramifications. The potential of CC&S ‎technology for CCM has also been examined. CC&S procedures need reduced energy use, making them more economically viable for ‎CCM. CC&S for CCM has problems, and the public view of these programs seems intricate or unsatisfactory for the implementation of ‎significant initiatives, obstructing the achievement of emissions reduction objectives across different states. A single migration seems ‎insufficient for achieving an economy without emissions. Stringent regulations, monetary benefits, stakeholder engagement, and technical ‎advancements are essential for migration; nevertheless, these technological innovations and regulatory measures must be validated via a ‎comprehensive sustainability assessment to mitigate the risks associated with capital and CLC.
