Advancements and Challenges in Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) with a Special Emphasis on SDG: A Comprehensive Review and Future Prospect in Bangladesh
摘要
The field of carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) has seen notable progress on a global scale. Current progress in CCUS development highlights advancements in Carbon dioxide (CO2) capture, a critical component in mitigating carbon emissions. Various carbon capture systems, including direct, oxyfuel, and pre-and post-combustion are being investigated; however, their feasibility is influenced by associated costs. The landscape also incorporates CO2 separation storage and utilization technologies, offering alternatives for several applicable areas. Addressing the specific context of Bangladesh, an evaluation of carbon footprint and major emission zones of the nation are discussed. Understanding the status of CCUS technologies in Bangladesh offers insights into sustainable development initiatives of the nation, aligning with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the UN especially when the nation projects its CO2 emissions to reach 91.42 Mt by 2030. As per this study by recognizing several factors, the post combustion technologies are mostly suited for Bangladesh for the implementation and enhancement of CCUS technologies, which are crucial for addressing environmental concerns and fostering a holistic approach to combat climate change.
