Seminar On Ccs

This document provides an overview of carbon dioxide (CO2) capture and storage (CCS) technologies. It discusses the need for CCS due to increasing CO2 emissions from fossil fuel use and their contribution to global warming. The document then describes the basic process of CCS, including capturing CO2 from power plants, compressing and transporting it via pipelines or ships, and storing it underground in geological formations or using it in industrial processes. It also discusses different CO2 capture methods like cryogenic fractionation, polymer membranes, and chemical absorption. The conclusion is that CCS could enable large reductions in CO2 emissions needed to avoid major climate change when used along with other abatement techniques.

INTRODUCTION
Increasing

concentration of CO2

Contributing
CO2

to Earths global warming.

is emitted when fuel is burnt

in large power plants.


Currently,

30 Gt per year of CO2 is emitted

WHAT IS CCS?

effectively capturing, compressing ,transporting,

and permanently injecting and storing in


geologic formations of carbon dioxide (CO 2)
from industrial or power plants.

NEED OF CCS

Many countries are heavily dependent on fossil

fuels for energy generation


With

an average of two coal-fired power stations a

week being built in the developing world


The

climate is changing and the prime cause is

humanitys use of fossil fuels.

WORKING OF CCS
CCS is essentially a group of technologies for:
[Link] CO2 from industrial
sources or power plants;
[Link] and transporting it;
[Link] it in suitable geologic
formations underground

CO2 CAPTURE
[Link] FRACTIONATION
Separation

of gases through cooling until they enter

their liquid states


Due

to different Heats of Vaporization, a liquid/gas

mixture can then be separated


Used for high concentrations
Flue

gases typically have low concentrations

[Link] MEMBRANE
Porous

Inorganic Membranes

When

CO2 is passed through it ,


it gets absorbed

On

heating the polymer,the CO2

is released
Its

not an economical source of removal


of CO2

[Link] ABSORPTION
Most widely used method of separation
Used

for low concentrations of CO2 in the gas

Common

Solvent is MEA
(Mono Ethanol Amine)

CO2 TRANSPORT
[Link]
Large volumes of gases, oil and water
flow through pipelines every day
The

most common method for

transporting CO2
Pipelines

commonly transport

carbon dioxide in its gaseous state

[Link]
Economically

more attractive,

when the CO2 has to be moved


over large distances or overseas
Can

be transported in similar
way that LPG is transported by
Marine tankers

CO2 STORAGE
[Link] STORAGE
Method involves injecting
carbon dioxide, directly into
underground geological formations
The

most promising sequestration sites

Storage

capacity of at least 2000 Gt CO 2

[Link] STORAGE
Direct

release into the oceans;


large capacity to absorb and store CO 2
Can

harm marine organisms near


the injection point

would

gradually affect the whole ocean

Generally

no longer considered as an

acceptable option

[Link] in industrial processes


In

fertilizer production, refrigeration, food

etc.
These

processes and industries already exist on a

commercial scale
small

amount of CO2 is used for these purposes


not contribute meaningfully to climate change

CONCLUSION
Large reductions in emissions of CO2 to the
atmosphere are likely to be needed to avoid major
climate change. Capture and storage of CO2,in
combination with other CO2 abatement techniques,
could enable these large reductions to be achieved
with least impact on the global energy infrastructure
and the economy
