Carbon Capture: Turning Emissions into Opportunity

Why carbon capture? In a world striving for net-zero, Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage (CCUS) stands out as a critical tool to reduce unavoidable emissions from industry and energy systems. This lecture explores current and emerging CO2 capture technologies, compares their performance across different emission sources, and discusses the technical, economic, and deployment challenges ahead. We will look at ongoing CCUS projects in the Netherlands and Europe, key optimization strategies, and how engineers, researchers, and policymakers can contribute to scaling these solutions responsibly and effectively.
