Carbon capture and storage Mitigation of global warming in Australia



the rudd-gillard government stated support research carbon capture , storage ccs possible solution rising greenhouse gas emissions. ccs integrated process, made of 3 distinct parts: carbon capture, transport, , storage (including measurement, monitoring , verification). capture technology aims produce concentrated stream of co2 can compressed, transported, , stored. transport of captured co2 storage locations via pipeline. storage of captured carbon final part of process. vast majority of co2 storage expected occur in geological sites on land, or below seabed. disposing of waste co2 in ocean has been proposed, method has been largely discounted due significant impacts co2 have on ocean ecosystem , legal constraints prohibit it.


however, according greenpeace false hope report, ccs cannot deliver in time avoid dangerous increase in world temperatures. earliest timeframe deployment of ccs not expected before 2030, , global emissions need start falling before that.


the report states ccs wastes energy, , uses between 10-40% of energy produced power station. asserts ccs expensive, potentially doubling plant costs, , risky, permanent storage cannot guaranteed.
