There are several ways to capture carbon dioxide:
- Carbon capture and storage (CCS) involves capturing carbon dioxide from large emitters such as power plants and storing it in underground reservoirs or depleted oil and gas fields.
- Carbon capture and utilization (CCU) involves capturing carbon dioxide and using it as a feedstock to produce chemicals or fuels.
- Carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) involves capturing carbon dioxide and storing it in geological formations, such as deep saline aquifers or underground coal beds.
- Carbon capture and utilization (CCU) involves capturing carbon dioxide and using it as a feedstock to produce chemicals or fuels.
- Carbon capture and conversion (CCC) involves capturing carbon dioxide and converting it into a useful product, such as methanol or hydrocarbons.
- Carbon capture and reforestation (CCR) involves capturing carbon dioxide and using it to reforest land, which helps to absorb and store carbon dioxide.
