[198 Pages Report] The Carbon Capture, Utilization, & Storage Market size was estimated at USD 5.94 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 7.03 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 21.48% to reach USD 23.22 billion by 2030.

Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) is a set of advanced technologies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by capturing carbon dioxide (CO2) from industrial processes and fossil fuel-based power generation. The captured CO2 is then utilized for various applications or safely stored in deep geological formations to prevent its release into the atmosphere. CCUS is critical in mitigating climate change, as it addresses one of the primary sources of global CO2 emissions. Growing industrialization, increasing demand for CO2-enhanced oil recovery techniques, and favorable government initiatives to support carbon capture, utilization & storage have significantly increased the demand for these technologies. However, huge capital requirements for carbon capture and specific storage facilities can hinder market growth. Furthermore, the continued investment in research and development is expected to drive technological advancements, leading to more cost-effective and efficient CCUS solutions. Additionally, collaborative efforts between governments, industries, and technology providers can facilitate knowledge sharing, cost sharing and accelerate the deployment of CCUS technologies.

Service: Significant environmental benefits provided by the control of carbon emissions

Carbon capture involves the process of separating carbon dioxide (CO2) from industrial and energy-related processes, preventing it from being released into the atmosphere. The need for carbon capture arises due to the urgent need to reduce toxic greenhouse gas emissions and combat climate change. Carbon storage refers to the long-term containment of captured CO2 by injecting it into geological formations such as gas reservoirs or deep saline aquifers. This prevents CO2 from contributing to global warming while also providing potential benefits such as enhanced oil recovery (EOR). The transportation of captured CO2, primarily through pipelines or ships, connects carbon capture facilities with storage sites. The need for transportation arises due to the distance between emission sources and suitable storage locations. Carbon utilization refers to the conversion of captured CO2 into valuable products, including chemicals, fuels, or building materials. The process of carbon utilization prevents CO2 emissions and also reduces dependence on fossil resources.

Technology: Expanding advancements in oxy-fuel combustion in carbon capture, utilization, and storage technologies

Oxy-fuel combustion capture is a process that involves burning fossil fuels in a high-purity oxygen environment, producing a concentrated stream of CO2 and water vapor. This technology is ideal for industries with energy-intensive processes, such as cement and steel production. Post-combustion capture refers to the process of separation of CO2 from flue gases emitted by power plants or industrial facilities after fossil fuel combustion. Post-combustion capture has diverse applications across different industries, such as natural gas processing industries and coal power plants, and industrial sectors, such as cement manufacturing and waste-to-energy conversion. Pre-combustion capture involves removing CO2 before the combustion cycle by converting hydrocarbon fuels into a mixture of hydrogen and carbon dioxide. Industries associated with high CO2 emissions, such as natural gas processing and coal gasification plants, can benefit from the utilization of this technology.

End-Use Industry: Ability of carbon capture, utilization, and storage to cater emerging application in power generation and cement industry

The cement industry and chemical & petrochemical industry are major contributors to global CO2 emissions, and carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) technologies can significantly help reduce these emissions. In addition to mitigating climate change impacts, employing CCUS also enhances resource efficiency by utilizing captured carbon in producing alternative building materials such as synthetic gypsum. Moreover, captured CO2 can be utilized as feedstock for the production of chemicals, including methanol or urea-based fertilizers, which are essential chemical components in various industrial applications. Iron and steel production contributes significantly to global CO2 emissions due to its reliance on coal-based blast furnaces, and the power generation sector is a leading source of global carbon emissions due to its reliance on fossil fuels. With the integration of CCUS technologies into power plants and iron and steel factories, it becomes possible to capture large quantities of CO2, thereby significantly reducing their greenhouse gas emissions. The oil & gas sector faces pressure to reduce its carbon footprint amid growing environmental concerns. Utilizing captured CO2 for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) techniques has proven beneficial in increasing reservoir output, sustaining energy security, and reducing dependence on foreign imports.
