Abstract

The rapid increase in greenhouse gas emissions, primarily carbon dioxide (CO2), has led to a pressing need for effective strategies to combat climate change. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) has emerged as a promising technology that aims to capture CO2 emissions from various sources and store them underground, thereby preventing their release into the atmosphere. This paper provides an in-depth analysis of CCS, including its underlying principles, different capture technologies, storage methods, challenges, and potential benefits. The paper also examines the current state of CCS implementation worldwide and discusses its role in achieving global climate goals. By presenting a comprehensive overview, this paper highlights the importance of CCS as a viable option for mitigating climate change.
