Carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) technology plays a pivotal role in China's "Carbon Peak" and "Carbon Neutrality" goals. This approach offers low-carbon, zero-carbon, and even negative-carbon solutions. This paper employs bibliometric analysis using the Web of Science to comprehensively review global CCUS progress and discuss future development prospects in China. The findings underscore it as a prominent research focus, attracting scholars from both domestic and international arenas. China notably leads the global landscape in terms of research paper output, with the Chinese Academy of Sciences holding a prominent position in total published papers. The research predominantly centers on refining geological storage techniques and optimizing oil and gas recovery rates. Among the CCUS pathways, enhanced oil recovery technology stands out due to its relative maturity and commercial applicability, particularly within the conventional oil and gas reservoirs. The application potential of enhanced gas recovery technology, especially in the Sichuan and Ordos Basins in China, necessitates robust research and demonstration efforts. Within China's current energy landscape, "Blue Hydrogen" emerges as the primary solution for hydrogen production in conjunction with CCUS technology. The underground coal gasification approach holds significant promise as a hydrogen production avenue, albeit with inherent ecological and environmental challenges tied to geological storage that require meticulous consideration. The establishment of effective risk identification and evaluation methodologies for geological storage is imperative. The trajectory ahead involves a strategic convergence of policy, technology, and market dynamics to enhance China's CCUS policy framework, legislative framework, standardization initiatives, and pioneering technological advancements. These collective efforts converge to outline an exclusive development pathway in China. This study assumes a pivotal role in accelerating CCUS technology research and deployment, enhancing oil and gas recovery efficiency, and ultimately realizing the overarching goals of a "Dual Carbon" future.

Carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) technologies play an essential role in achieving Net Zero Emissions targets. Considering the lack of timely reviews on the recent advancements in promising CCUS technologies, it is crucial to provide a prompt review of the CCUS advances to understand the current research gaps pertained to its industrial application. To that end, this review first summarized the developmental history of CCUS technologies and the current large-scale demonstrations. Then, based on a visually bibliometric analysis, the carbon capture remains a hotspot in the CCUS development. Noting that the materials applied in the carbon capture process determines its performance. As a result, the state-of-the-art carbon capture materials and emerging capture technologies were comprehensively summarized and discussed. Gaps between state-of-art carbon capture process and its ideal counterpart are analyzed, and insights into the research needs such as material design, process optimization, environmental impact, and technical and economic assessments are provided.

Foams improve mobility control in injection operations within geological settings. Nanoparticles, such as iron-oxide, have been shown to enhance the stability of foams when combined with surfactants. In this research, we leverage the magnetic properties of these nanoparticles to detect their presence as a surrogate for monitoring the geologic extent of injected fluids in the subsurface. The feasibility of using these nanoparticles for monitoring purposes stems from their detectability at low concentrations in subsurface environments. We developed two distinct methods to detect the presence of magnetite nanoparticles in complex fluids. To simulate complex subsurface fluids in a laboratory setting, we included various ions and surfactants and investigated their effects on the detection of nanoparticles. To this end, we designed an experimental setup and tested two magnetic detection methods: Induction Heating (IH) and Oscillator Frequency Shift (OFS). The IH method involves applying a high-frequency alternating magnetic field to a solution containing small amounts of magnetic nanoparticles and measuring the temperature response. We built an experimental setup to generate this magnetic field for different samples, with temperature changes recorded by an infrared camera. The results indicate that nanoparticle concentrations linearly affect the solution's temperature rise. However, the presence of ions and surfactants also influences the temperature response. The OFS method measures shifts in the resonance frequency of a circuit caused by changes in magnetic permeability inside a coil. This coil is part of a transistor oscillator circuit that produces a sinusoidal voltage waveform, with the oscillation frequency depending on the coil’s inductance. The presence of nanoparticles causes a shift in resonance frequency, which were precisely measured for various samples. The drop in resonance frequency is a linear function of nanoparticle concentration, and both methods detect concentrations as low as 150 mg/L of Fe3O4 nanoparticles.
