CCS (CO2 Storage): Environmental Benefits, Risk and Public Perception

Specialization
Event Date | 2023/06/16 Address | Cisco Webex

Taiwan has favorable conditions for geological carbon dioxide storage, and if properly utilized, it can meet our carbon reduction needs until 2100. However, there are still many challenges in promoting and implementing CCS in our country. The Future Earth Taipei Digital Generation Working Group has invited experts and scholars to discuss this issue from the perspectives of environmental benefits, risks, and public awareness. You are welcome to join our online exchange and discussion at the scheduled time!

Date | June 16, 2023
Time | 16:00 - 17:00 pm (UTC+8)
Venue | Cisco Webex (meeting link will be sent after registration)

Result

Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS): Dr. Leslie Mabon emphasizes the importance of CCS as a means to slow climate change in the industrial sector. CCS includes carbon dioxide emissions from various sources (such as power plants and industrial facilities), and stores them in underground geology to prevent them from being released into the atmosphere.

Social acceptance and communication: Dr. Leslie Mabon emphasizes the importance of social acceptance and effective communication in the implementation of CCS projects. They discussed different concerns and views of interests (including local communities, enterprises, politicians, and environmental protection organizations). Establish trust, respond to risks, and provide accurate information through various channels (including social media) to be identified as key elements of successful implementation of the CCS project.

The motivation for carbon storage: Dr. Chia-WEI KUO proposed the need to respond to climate change caused by rising carbon dioxide emissions and the needs of global warming potential consequences.

CO2 storage process: The steps involved in carbon capture and storage include capture, compression, transportation and injection into the rock layer. Emphasizing the importance of physical power and heterogeneity of rock layer for carbon dioxide behavior.

The importance of CCS technology: Dr. Ya-MEI Yang emphasizes the global importance of CCS technology to reduce CO2 emissions and achieve zero carbon path. The IECC AR No. 6 Report and Taiwan's quantitative data support the use of CCUS (carbon capture, utilization and storage) as a strategy of reducing CO2 emissions by various departments.
