Abstract

The paper presents and discusses modern methods and technologies of CO 2 capture (pre-combustion capture, post-combustion capture, and oxy-combustion capture) along with the principles of these methods and examples of existing and operating installations. The primary differences of the selected methods and technologies, with the possibility to apply them in new low-emission energy technologies, were presented. The following CO 2 capture methods: pre-combustion, post-combustion based on chemical absorption, physical separation, membrane separation, chemical looping combustion, calcium looping process, and oxy-combustion are discussed in the paper. Large-scale carbon capture utilization and storage (CCUS) facilities operating and under development are summarized. In 2021, 27 commercial CCUS facilities are currently under operation with a capture capacity of up to 40 Mt of CO 2 per year. If all projects are launched, the global CO 2 capture potential can be more than ca. 130–150 Mt/year of captured CO 2 . The most popular and developed indicators for comparing and assessing CO 2 emission, capture, avoiding, and cost connected with avoiding CO 2 emissions are also presented and described in the paper.
