Off topic but in thinking about CO2 sequestration the big problem is that of CO2 concentration (0.004% of the atmosphere) is really, really low. But plants are bloody good at concentrating CO2. Why not grow fast growing plants, then burn them under a controlled conditions (i.e.; furnace) and then capture the CO2 from the smoke which will be much higher in CO2 than the atmosphere. Essentially using plants as solar powered CO2 concentraters. The energy given off from the burning could be used to make electricity and power the CO2 concentrating equipment (solving a second problem of CO2 sequestration).

FT correspondents and other experts express clearly the challenges related with CO2 emissions from fossil fuels and superficially give some ideas for CCS or CCUS or other transitions ways. The emission from fossil fuels is really a big challenge, but today the world has a bigger challenge, scarcity on energy demand supply. All depends from actual technologies used worldwide, which may be considered as solutions, but are very expensive for the economy mainly from low efficiency. So if we will see energy related with efficiency the fossil fuels used on transportation have low efficiency, the fossil fuels used to produce electricity again have low efficiency, the wind and solar power not only are intermittent but have low efficiency, battery storing or Hydrogen energy have even lower efficiency. The energy transition from fossil fuels is a necessity but the actual technologies will help only marginally on CO2 emission, the renewable energies may replace only a part of energy shortage from oil and gas, coming this from natural depletion on production and existing technologies are with limited success which make the technologies used as CCUS EOR very expensive and CO2 intensive. Let see Occidental petroleum for example, this company really is one of the most advanced on CCUS EOR and has decades experience, but when they inject natural CO2 produced from underground and for every barrel oil they produce 15000 scf/bbl CO2 is consumed, only energy used to compress this amount of energy will increase the cost of oil and the CO2 emission will be high. Theoretically if one barrel oil will be pushed from pore space may need not more than 2000 scf/bbl, and this is possible and on practice. However advanced expertise is needed to reach these efficiency and of course this need invention on well completion which will decrease the cost of production and will decrease the emission. The CCUS EOR has high Gas oil Ratio and increase and losses on all cycle of processes. The Occidental petroleum is invited on individual discussion about improving CO2 injection EOR on their reservoirs. Other oil and gas companies which want to use CCUS EOR and produce more from their oil reservoirs are respectful for individual discussion for e new inventive technology.

How can you say Drax will be carbon negative? They ship their feedstock wood all the way from Canada and burn it to produce energy. Where is that carbon emitted to cross half the planet exactly accounted for in your calculation?

The problem that some major proponents of carbon capture and storage are aware of, but unwilling to acknowledge, is the fact that ALL of the combined technologies (even scaled up) would be unable to store even one part-per-million of CO2 in the end. One ppm = 7,800 million metric tons. The IEA estimates 7,600 million would be needed by 2050. Even if done, the climate would not even miss it. And, while it is being done, fossil fuels for transportation will be adding more to the atmosphere. These facilities don't just appear by themselves. This approach will never work.

So trees take Co² and store it as carbon. Right now capturing it goes to storage. So I wonder what steps might be done to convert the captured co² into a hard substance to be used similar to wood. It would add a dollar value to the capture. If the pelletised carbon can uptake water, maybe it could be used as a spillage soaker? We have to look at several ways to make a cleaner planet.

I will explain the reason at the end, but I would like CCS and CCUS companies to continue with their development. The general public now needs to reduce their power consumption at night, when solar power cannot be generated. If you know anyone who works at a window sash manufacturer, please introduce them to me. The other day, I had a discussion with a Japanese sash manufacturer, but even though they are registered with the Ministry of the Environment's decarbonization activities, they prioritized profits and were reluctant to accept our proposal. Carbon dioxide is a problem because it is a very stable gas. Now that such large-scale wildfires have occurred, it is important not to emit any more CO2. What I would like to propose is a device that uses natural wind to exhaust heat and reduce air conditioning power consumption at night, and features a gust protection function. We have a plan to install this device on windows, so we would like to discuss this with North American sash manufacturers. I think CCS needs to be collected higher up in the sky. This is because CO2 from thermal power generation is exhausted from tall chimneys, and the exhaust gas from gasoline cars is also hot and rises quickly. If carbon dioxide can be good and bad for plants, then the CO2 near the ground must be delicious. If so, the original mission is to collect the CO2 in the sky generated by thermal power. Last year, the weeds in my neighborhood died in the intense heat, and even survived the winter with their shape intact. In other words, since there is less chance for new grass to grow, global warming may accelerate, so I think it is better to leave CCS as a method.

We need too regulate how much carbon comes out of the ground and out of biomass exploitation. "keep it in the ground" is really the only way.

Really is frustrating this... 'Norway' so they "flashed" a number of headlines 'incomplete' instead of ourselves just seeing a few, which we could "fully" read. As I said before, let the story tell itself....

I was really shocked they let that statement go in without challenging it. She actually suggested buring hydrogen in a normal power plant. That would be just insane. If you're going to use a gas power plant just burn the gas and do CCS on the exhaust. Blue hydrogen is a scam. Per useful energy produced at the end it contributes about the same or according to one analysis even more ghg than just burning the gas would. Hydrogen is only worth it for uses that can't viably electrified. Possibly for storage of excess energy, but then you use a fuel cell not a power station.

Would be great to also include KlimaDAO in this feature. They're the leading blockchain ecosystem building a more transparent carbon credit market on the lowest-emissions blockchain network (the Polygon network; they in fact recently committed millions toward being fully carbon neutral as a network as they recognize their own and the broader crypto industry's collective carbon footprint is significant)

We don't currently have viable CCS, we should keep working on it, but we should focus on CCU. We currently burn gas to get CO2 for food packaging while having it belch out of factories and power stations, not to mention breweries and bakeries, we have had the technology to solve this simple issue for decades. There are practical applications for the CO2 waste which could be solved with millions, rather than the billions going into CCS and achieving little.

Tree farms (for profit) are barely carbon neutral. Old forests work better but nobody wants them. The only virgin forests in the US are in California (no surprise there) and they are in remote mountains. Watch the BBC video "the trouble with trees".

But why bother? You have to put more energy in to make the methane than you get out when you burn it. The process is very inefficient, especially since you have to capture the co2 first to then feed it into the process. If you want to store energy in a gas using hydrogen or ammonia for that makes more sense. Hydrogen only needs water and nitrogen makes up 80% of the air so it's much easier to get hold of.

Every one of those plants and processes can be made to run smarter and cheaper I would argue - and carbon can be used and recycled............

As future generations look back at the economic and human devastation wrought by the world's irrational response to COVID, they likewise will see the foolishness of our "battle" against carbon. Propositions oft repeated don't create facts.

Glad to see that this is an objective and fair assessment of Carbon Capture. Bottom line with almost all green projects is, that they are used to make money. We are made to believe that we help the environment, because "they" can make money out of it. CCS to revive old wells... Killing American forests to turn them into pellets... electric cars that weigh much more than conventional cars - and therefore can not possibly drive more economical... solar panels that work during noon when there is hardly any need for that electricity... a demand for lithium ion batteries that asks so much resources that it is an environmental and economic problem in itself... a total dependence of electricity to a point that our society could fall if the power grid would be destroyed... And in the end it is all just soft talk (dont be too blunt because in the end people only want to hear positive stories and they will "kill the messenger"!) and no significant action.

The above all sounds very nice but in the meantime Draxx have been caught chopping down virgin forrest in Canada to produce the wood pellets to burn in their biomass plant. A much bigger concern that I have with all these people getting so giddy about the use of electricity and changing to renewable is the question if anyone of them went to the trouble to do a Life Cycle Analysis of solar and wind power. What amount of fossil fuels are used to produce the metals and minerals needed for the production of these wind farms and solar panels? What amount of fossil fuels will be burnt to recycle the solar panels and wind turbines when they reach the end of their life cycle. Do we actually gave the technology to recycle batteries, solar panels and the windturbine blades? The answer is no, we don't. The inability to recycle all these dirty green energy products will hugely contribute to a much larger problem that we have to address and that is pollution. Fossil fuels improved and saved the lives of millions, if not billions of people and until all these commentators are willing to give up all the luxuries afforded to them through the fossil fuel industry it is not really worth listening to them.

This video, like many discussing carbon capture, didn't do enough to differentiate between capturing CO2 at source, from waste gas chimneys, and capturing CO2 from the atmosphere. Capturing from the atmosphere is enormously harder because the concentration is on the order of 400 times lower. Most carbon capture is therefore done at source. But with the exception of BECCS, capture at source can never result in negative emissions because all you are doing is emitting less than you would have been without it, but you are still emitting some CO2 because CCS is never 100% effective. Direct air capture = expensive but necessary for negative emissions. CCS (at source) = affordable but does not negate emissions from other sources. In almost all cases it would be cheaper to not burn the fossil fuels than to capture the carbon from them. The only exception is gas peaker plants which are currently needed as a backup to renewables as storage is not yet available at large enough scale for affordable prices.

The film is also too positive I think about Drax unfortunately, and the biofuel project there - many environmental experts and people think this does an awful lot of harm. Whole swathes of forests are devoted to this in America, and then all this wood has to be shipped to the UK. Monoculture forests also cause problems in themselves... some analysts think Drax is as bad or worse than fossil fuels? Perhaps, this is an exaggeration, but I don't think Drax - unless the wood were sourced more responsibly - is not what was promised.

Definitely not worth building a new plant but perhaps repurposing the existing coal plant is worth a go. Shipping the wood around needs to have co2 minimised. Since there is no rush perhaps slow but low carbon sailing ships could be used for that.

Here is a carbon capture provided by our earth: It is called healthy soil. We have destroyed half or more of our soil since the industrial revolution. Regenerative farming is the answer. But as it requires the cooperation of the people of the world, big business is determined to continue its path of destruction and those people do not 'deserve' a future that is sustainable. Restoration provides the participants in that project a sustainable future. Desertified land is worthless, so what's the beef? Restoring it is a no brainer but it takes the future away from a "Corporate' dystopia, which is the aim of late stage capitalism. This is our future at stake. and technology will not fix it, it has already proved that...

Tasmania (the postage stamp at the bottom of Australia) has recently become one of the first carbon-negative jurisdictions. They've done this by reducing the harvesting of old growth forests. Perhaps planting more trees might be helpful.

Big issue here is that I think the Decarbonisation pathways to 2050 in IPCC reports seem to rely heavily on substantial carbon capture and storage. The forecaster’s notion of it ran ahead of actual viability.

Carbon capture? …you mean…trees?

Good video. Informative and to the point.

how come it doesn't even mention nuclear as an option?

Ccs is turning oil and gas into the equivalent of batteries? A way to store energy without increasing the net amount of carbon in the atmosphere. The key is figuring out how to take capture carbon and convert it back into oil and gas efficiently. Not sure how all this will pan out yet see it’s equivalency to battery tech. Interesting. Let’s see how it pans out and let our combined human endeavor create a better world - instead of a worse one!

@@sampleoffers1978 the only real solution to drive down carbon emissions is nuclear power. Carbon capture is fine if the electricity comes from a carbon zero source. We could produce electricity with nuclear power, use the energy to desalinate water from the ocean, run carbon capture, and power homes and industry. All the talk about renewables is fine, but they lack the land density, raw materials, supply chain, and intensity that we need to move the scale in a meaningful way. as the lady says at 6:40 of the clip, anything other than nuclear power is "tinkering around the edges".

Hand-wringing and groaning about the use of CO2 to pressurize formations and thus recover more oil and gas from them is logically flawed at best, and specious at worst. There IS demand for oil and gas. It is NOT increased simply because CO2 was used to enhance productivity of existing oilfields. If petroleum producers don't use their own CO2 to recover more product from an already-developed field, then they'll simply vent off the CO2 and move on to develop yet another field. Get it? A new field; new company access roads; new oil and gas wells drilled; new gas and oil gathering systems (pipelines) laid down; new dehydrators and other infrastructure; and either longer trucking routes or new processing facilities built near the new field. These idiots with their emotional reasoning are our 'experts?' Gawd help us.

There will always be demand for oil and gas. People will always want it. But if we just let them have it then severe climate change will happen. Most of the known deposits have to be left in the ground. Governments have to take action to make that happen, either by taxing it to make it more expensive and less appealing than the alternatives or by refusing permission for further drilling. The problem is that deposits are not evenly distributed, and most of them are in countries with dodgy governments such as Russia. I used to be against any investment in additional extraction since we already have more than enough available and have to leave a lot in the ground. Now we have to invest some more in extracting western deposits and instead leave russian oil and gas in the ground in order to not give Putin more money for invading his neighbours.

We put up solar panels in Kuwait to drive a desalination plant. Over night the dusty desert air with some humidity condensed on the surface and needed to be washed out, not with the rejected salty brine, not with the seawater, but with the fresh desalinated water. The net recovered fresh water was far from the expected deliverable desalinated water. If you want to put solar panels on deserts, make sure to consider the dayly maintenance cost and the availability of fresh water. So far it is difficult to get insurance for such projects, let alone knowledgable investors. We learned the hard way: use waist energy from neighboring powerplants, nuclear or thermal.

Isnt it Cheaper to Plant Trees 🌱and turn Deserts green?

Using carbon capture to reduce impact of coal/oil/gas power stations/cars is pointless and expensive. Using surplus energy coming frome nuclear and renewables to decarbonize some specific sectors which intrinscly produce CO2 makes sense (for exaple waste-burning plants, steel mills, chemical plants, cement factories...). But it means extra costs that will be possible to support only if people stop to be anti-nuke ( I personallly used to be one of them, but then I realized that random renewables require fossil fuels or emitting biomass, while renewables+ nuke don't)

The best carbon capture is the preservation of forests, especially the tropical rain forests whereby plants and trees grow at amazing rates, capturing more carbon than all our modern carbon capture technology combine.

Once all this carbon is captured, what will they do with it? and when we get to zero carbon, how will anything live?

there is no problem with carbon capture not being "economical" or viable without having a use. just put a price on emissions, make the polluters pay. many countries already have carbon taxes and similar schemes.

Grow forests everywhere! Best carbon sequestration system in the world! Invest in mother nature!

Didn't find this easy to watch at all... as stated some parts trying to be too quick and slick, other parts the people talking should have been accompanied by videos or graphics? Would have been better to have fewer people speaking probably, and exploring what they said in film and graphics in more depth.

What about reforestation?

There is a machine that is cheap, requires little mantainance and replicates itself over long periods of time that captures carbon from the atmosphere. It runs on solar power and requires water instead of oil. Yes *plants*; natures carbon cleaners.
