    The document discusses carbon capture and storage (CCS) as a key technology for reducing carbon emissions and limiting global temperature rise. It states that CCS could deliver 17% of required emissions reductions by 2050 and that without CCS, the costs of tackling climate change could be 40% higher. It also notes that without CCS, limiting global CO2 emissions to 450 ppm could increase costs by 138% and that the additional costs to decarbonize the UK economy in 2050 would be £32 billion per year without CCS. Finally, it provides a brief overview of the CCS process, including CO2 capture using existing industrial technologies like amine solvents, as well as emerging technologies, and the

    CO2 CAPTURE

     Capture-related technology
    practiced in industry for
    decades

     Most mature capture


    technology is use of amine
    solvents for CO2 and H2S
    removal from gas/liquid
    streams.

     Other emerging capture


    technologies build on
    industrial processes e.g.
    solid adsorbing fluidized
    beds & membranes
