Koldioxidavskiljning hos Borlänge Energi : Diskussion kring teknikval och en möjlig handlingsplan

Sammanfattning

Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is a solution to decrease fossil carbon emissions and achieve climate neutrality. The method of the study consists of a literature review, interviews and analysis. The report explains Borlänge Energi’s motives for CCS, presents different CCS technologies and strategies for choosing a CCS-technology. Absorption is the most common CCS technology and that is also the most suitable technology for Borlänge Energi. Chemical absorption has different kinds of absorbents. The choice of absorbent can be based on the CO2 concentration of the flue gas, but the environmental aspect should also be considered. Making conscious choices throughout the CCS chain cooperation and global monitoring are of greatest importance.
