Carbon capture is a technology designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by capturing carbon dioxide (CO2) produced from industrial processes and energy generation. The captured CO2 is then transported and stored underground or utilized in various applications, preventing it from entering the atmosphere and contributing to climate change.
This process typically involves three main steps: capturing the CO2 at the source, compressing it for transport, and storing it in geological formations or using it in products like concrete. Carbon capture plays a crucial role in efforts to mitigate global warming and transition to a more sustainable energy future.
