Carbon Capture and Storage - Technology Centre Mongstad as the earth keeps due to climate change the search for a solution to combat it becomes ever more urgent in mom's dad doorway at the edge in the Norwegian Sea a gleaming new test facility has been built undertake this task is in the process of carbon capture storage while one approach to tackling climate change is to limit the amount of carbon dioxide created through the burning of fossil fuels carbon capture storage RCCs as it is known aims to trap carbon dioxide emissions before they release into the atmosphere and store them underground in the good form well it it's 10 the necessary the things that we have to do in order to do with climate change because we cannot do without the use of carbon fuels the world simply doesn't have any way of substituting comin fumes 100 percent mom step facility is a billion-dollar development owned jointly by the Norwegian government and three oil companies Statoil shell and sauce all and South Africa the facility itself consists of to capture plants fitted with more than 4,000 instruments which can capture up to a hundred thousand tons of carbon a year these plants are connected to the exhaust who's ever refinery and also to a nearby gas fired power station experiments will be conducted measuring different flow rates carbon dioxide concentrations and the capture technology itself it is hoped that the experiments will not only improve the processes use for CCS making them more efficient but eventually make them cheaper as well this is the central to transforming CCS into a viable technique for mitigating effects of climate change CCS will have to become profitable a one point in time or later in the beginning in order to launch CCS a Semitic rating action the it will need the significant to public funding once the alternative becomes more expensive than investing in co2 capture than co2 capture plans would of course become profitable the International Energy Agency believes that CCS could be used to cut twenty percent of the world's carbon dioxide emissions by 2050 to keep the earth's temperature from rising beyond two degrees Celsius a widely agreed upon safe limit current levels need to be reduced by half to meet this goal it suggested that a hundred capture facilities will need to be built by 2020 and another three thousand by 2050 currently there are only eight facilities in existence but the groundswell of support that CCS enjoyed only just a few years ago in America and beyond has faded as the political and economic realities for dragging economy have kicked in have the 28 carbon storage facilities in the works mostly in North America it's likely that many of them will be cancelled due to costs but Norway remains committed climate change is in fact the like be concerned with two people in Norway norway has a huge wall in the gas industry that represents a a major portion over carbon dioxide emissions in Norway was also important for normal because the fact that the we rely heavily on our income from holding us export for that reason we need to solve the climate issues related to the mission Sokoban the oxide other some doubts have been raised about the geological safety of carbon storage with critics pointing to the potential for seismic activity in storage sites the risks are seen as quite small the main issue holding back development of CCS is simply expense it still cost less to put a ton of co2 into the air then into the ground and until this changes this change in carbon legislation put forth by governments by improvements in technology the widespread use of city s will remain far off
