22 Technical Summary Major issues for this assessment Transfer’ indicates that there are many potential barriers that could inhibit deployment in developing countries, even of technologies that are mature in industrialized countries. Addressing these barriers and creating conditions that would facilitate diffusion of the technology to developing countries would be a major issue for the adoption of CCS worldwide. 2. Sources of CO2 This section describes the major current anthropogenic sources of CO2 emissions and their relation to potential storage sites. As noted earlier, CO2 emissions from human activity arise from a number of different sources, mainly from the combustion of fossil fuels used in power generation, transportation, industrial processes, and residential and commercial buildings. CO2 is also emitted during certain industrial processes like cement manufacture or hydrogen production and during the combustion of biomass. Future emissions are also discussed in this section. Current CO2 sources and characteristics There are a number of issues that need to be addressed in trying to understand the role that CCS could play in mitigating climate change. Questions that arise, and that are addressed in different sections of this Technical Summary, include the following: • What is the current status of CCS technology? • What is the potential for capturing and storing CO2? • What are the costs of implementation? • How long should CO2 be stored in order to achieve significant climate change mitigation? • What are the health, safety and environment risks of CCS? • What can be said about the public perception of CCS? • What are the legal issues for implementing CO2 storage? • What are the implications for emission inventories and accounting? • What is the potential for the diffusion and transfer of CCS technology? When analyzing CCS as an option for climate change mitigation, it is of central importance that all resulting emissions from the system, especially emissions of CO2, be identified and assessed in a transparent way. The importance of taking a “systems” view of CCS is therefore stressed, as the selection of an appropriate system boundary is essential for proper analysis. Given the energy requirements associated with capture and some storage and utilization options, and the possibility of leaking storage reservoirs, it is vital to assess the CCS chain as a whole. To assess the potential of CCS as an option for reducing global CO2 emissions, the current global geographical relationship between large stationary CO2 emission sources and their proximity to potential storage sites has been examined. CO2 emissions in the residential, commerical and transportation sectors have not been considered in this analysis because these emission sources are individually small and often mobile, and therefore unsuitable for capture and storage. The discussion here also includes an analysis of potential future sources of CO2 based on several scenarios of future global energy use and emissions over the next century. From the perspectives of both atmospheric stabilization and long-term sustainable development, CO2 storage must extend over time scales that are long enough to contribute significantly to climate change mitigation. This report expresses the duration of CO2 storage in terms of the‘fraction retained’, defined as the fraction of the cumulative mass of CO2 injected that is retained in a storage reservoir over a specified period of time. Estimates of such fractions for different time periods and storage options are presented later. Questions arise not only about how long CO2 will remain stored, but also what constitutes acceptable amounts of slow, continuous leakage4 from storage. Different approaches to this question are discussed in Section 8. Globally, emissions of CO2 from fossil-fuel use in the year 2000 totalled about 23.5 GtCO2 yr-1 (6 GtC yr-1). Of this, close to 60% was attributed to large (>0.1 MtCO2 yr-1) stationary emission sources (see Table TS.2). However, not all of these sources are amenable to CO2 capture. Although the sources evaluated are distributed throughout the world, the database reveals four particular clusters of emissions: North America (midwest and eastern USA), Europe (northwest region), East Asia (eastern coast of China) and South Asia (Indian subcontinent). By contrast, large-scale biomass sources are much smaller in number and less globally distributed. CCS would be an option for countries that have significant sources of CO2 suitable for capture, that have access to storage sites and experience with oil or gas operations, and that need to satisfy their development aspirations in a carbon-constrained environment. Literature assessed in the IPCC Special Report ‘Methodological and Technological Issues and Technology Currently, the vast majority of large emission sources have CO2 concentrations of less than 15% (in some cases, substantially less). However, a small portion (less than 2%) of the fossil fuel-based industrial sources have CO2 concentrations in excess of 95%. The high-concentration sources are potential candidates for the early implementation 4 With respect to CO2 storage, leakage is defined as the escape of injected fluid from storage. This is the most common meaning used in this Summary. If used in the context of trading of carbon dioxide emission reductions, it may signify the change in anthropogenic emissions by sources or removals by sinks which occurs outside the project boundary.PDF Image | CARBON DIOXIDE CAPTURE AND STORAGE
