Advancements in ship-based carbon capture technology on board of LNG-fuelled ships

The International Maritime Organization has set clear objectives towards drastically reducing greenhouse gas emissions the coming decades in the maritime sector. While different ways to reduce emissions are already proposed, these are not expected to generate high CO2 abatement rates (in the case of fuel saving measures) or to be available and...

Special Case Studies in Sustainable Carbon Capture

This chapter presents discussion of four selected case studies for sustainable carbon capture. The first case study is a high-level techno-economic integration study for CO2 capture in the waste to energy (WtE) sector, which may result in negative emissions, as a large part of the CO2 is biogenic. Integration of CO2 capture in this sector is...

Update on post-combustion carbon capture and storage on LNG fuelled vessels

The maritime industry has set clear objectives towards reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the coming decades. Ship based carbon capture (SBCC) could play a large role in reducing these emissions on the short term. This study gives an update on the work that has been conducted towards carbon capture and storage on LNG fuelled vessels. This is...

CO2 capture in geothermal application

For the generation of geothermal heat, hot water is pumped from geothermal wells. Natural gas is dissolved in the brine under reservoir conditions and co-generated from these wells during production. It can be used in a combined heat and power (CHP) system.

Post-combustion Carbon Capture and Storage on LNG Fuelled Ships

Post-combustion CO2 capture by absorption is a mature technology that has been implemented in many industrial applications to decrease CO2 emissions from large point sources. As demonstrated in this work, the CO2 capture process can be implemented onboard as a retrofit technology, thus enabling timely implementation; a key element for the...
