Introduction There is general agreement amongst the nations of the world that increasing amounts of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere are effecting the world’s climate. One option is to eliminate the use of fossil fuels but this is probably not going to happen in the short term. Thus carbon capture has emerged as a possible means for cleaner combustion of carbon-based fuels. Carbon capture is the removal of carbon dioxide from flue gas before it has been emitted to the atmosphere. Once the carbon has been captured it can either be injected in suitable subsurface formations (Carbon Storage) or converted to useful products (Utilization). The purpose of this conference is to gather scientists, engineers, etc. working on all aspects of CCUS to present their latest work, share ideas, and help to advance the cause of CCUS. At CETCCUS, ProSim will set up a prize, ProSim Best Student Paper Award, to honor the best student poster or presentation. We welcome all students to submit a paper and participate in CETCCUS. The Call for papers for CETCCUS is now open. Please contact us or submit a paper to training@spheretechconnect.com. Conference Topics: * Carbon Capture New processes and solvents for CO2 removal Physical and thermodynamic properties of potential solvents * Transportation of CO2 Compression Pipe flow Physical, thermodynamic and kinetic properties * Utilization of Carbon Dioxide Converting CO2 into commercial products Food-grade CO2 * Injection of CO2 Wells, completions, cementation Enhanced oil recovery * Behaviour of CO2 in the Reservoir Reservoir characterization Physical properties of carbon dioxide (in particular the effect of impurities) Flow through the reservoir Mineralization of CO2 Seismic activity related to fluid injection * Related subjects Reducing the cost of CCUS Corrosion Lessons learned from acid gas injection – a more mature technology Current CO2 market study CCS market studies |
