Carbon Capture & Storage Technologies

Bharatbook added a new report on "Carbon Capture & Storage Technologies" which gives the in-depth analysis and forecast on Carbon Capture & Storage Technologies
Highlights

THIS REPORT CONTAINS

The status of competing technologies as well as technological research and development for systems designed to mitigate global warming. Analyses of global market trends, with data from 2009, estimates for 2010, and projections of compound annual growth rates (CAGRs) throught 2015. Coverage of technologies that are able to capture carbon dioxide from stationary sources at the point of emission; the report, however, does not evaluate technologies that are used to capture other global warming gases such as methane.

Examination of current and pending U.S., state, and international regulations governing the emission of carbon dioxide. Comprehensive company profiles and patent evaluations.

Scope

INTRODUCTION

STUDY GOALS AND OBJECTIVES

The goal of this study is to determine what technologies exist to capture carbon dioxide (CO2) and at what price, with a focus on the utility and power generation sector. A further goal is to determine what technologies are emerging that could compete with the existing technologies in use or displace those technologies. An objective of the study is to determine what the costs would be to the purchasers of carbon capture equipment and also what the impact would be on the consumer. Another objective is to determine which companies own the technologies to capture carbon dioxide and to determine how they are positioning their technology to compete against other technologies and if they were acquiring new technologies from start-up companies.( http://www.bharatbook.com/detail.asp?id=167499&rt=Carbon-Capture-Storage-Technologies.html)

REASONS FOR DOING THE STUDY

With global warming receiving extended coverage in the popular media and being recognized as a global problem requiring the participation of most of the world’s governments and people to find a solution, this study seeks to define exactly what is being done by who with what expected results, at what cost. There remains a controversy over how much global warming there is and to what extent this is a man-made condition or a natural cycle of climate change. From this perspective, we seek to determine what can be expected during the next 5 years. This study discusses whether certain trends that are starting now can be expected to continue.

INTENDED AUDIENCE

The intended audience is all of the corporations or individuals who have an interest in reducing their carbon dioxide emissions and the companies that may wish to invest in, license, install, or acquire promising carbon dioxide capture technologies. This report is an impartial presentation of the best available technologies to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from power plants. This technical marketing report should also be of interest to state utility regulators who must make decisions that affect billion-dollar investments by corporations as well as the future cost of electricity (COE) for the rate payers.

This report should also be of interest to subcontractors in the electric power construction industry, pipe manufacturers, and pipe fitters, as new electric power projects that capture carbon dioxide will need to pipe it from the site to a storage facility.

SCOPE OF THE REPORT

The report examines global markets for carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) technology, the status of competing carbon capture technologies as well as global technological research and development (R&D) for carbon capture technologies to prevent global warming. It also covers technologies able to capture carbon dioxide from stationary sources at the point of emission. This report does not cover technologies that are used to capture other global warming gases such as methane, water vapor, or various oxides of sulfur or nitrogen.

Major market and market segments are measured and forecasted for several years, including 2009, and 5-year forecasts are made to 2014 in most cases.

METHODOLOGY

The initial task was to determine the technologies suited to capture carbon dioxide for electric power applications and determine the cost of those technologies based on the cost per megawatt (MW) of capacity. The Appendix lists companies that provide the technologies and which companies were buying and why. An additional analysis was to list projects for each of the key technologies, including the necessary parameters, the expected cost of the project, the size of the project in megawatts, and how much carbon dioxide the project might expect to capture per year. Those projects expected to start in the 2009–2014 time frame form the basis for the forecast of growth for the carbon capture technologies examined in this report with due respect to global economic conditions and demographics.
