The Review of Carbon Capture-Storage Technologies and Developing Fuel Cells for Enhancing Utilization

Abstract

The amount of CO2 released in the atmosphere has been at a continuous surge in the last decade, and in order to protect the environment from global warming, it is necessary to employ techniques like carbon capture. Developing technologies like Carbon Capture Utilization and Storage aims at mitigating the CO2 content from the air we breathe and has garnered immense research attention. In this review, the authors have aimed to discuss the various technologies that are being used to capture the CO2 from the atmosphere, store it and further utilize it. For utilization, researchers have developed alternatives to make profits from CO2 by converting it into an asset. The development of newer fuel cells that consume CO2 in exchange for electrical power to drive the industries and produce valuable hydrocarbons in the form of fuel has paved the path for more research in the field of carbon utilization. The primary focus on the article is to inspect the environmental and economic feasibility of novel technologies such as fuel cells, different electrochemical processes, and the integration of artificial intelligence and data science in them, which are designed for mitigating the percentage of CO2 in the air.

Probabilistic Assessment and Uncertainty Analysis of CO2 Storage Capacity of the Morrow B Sandstone—Farnsworth Field Unit

“…The volumetric equation proposed by USDOE [8] for the determination of CO 2 storage for an oil and gas depleted reservoir was altered and used for this project. Equation (4) shows the altered equation utilized for this project.…”

“…In recent decades, global warming as a result of the greenhouse gas effect has become the forefront of every discussion worldwide [1][2][3][4], and it signifies how much this unabated issue is of concern to the inhabitants of the world. To address this issue, this study focuses on the ways in which the greenhouse gas effect can be reduced by capturing, utilizing, and storing anthropogenic CO 2 gas in geologic formations.…”

Green Synthesis of Nanoparticles and Their Biomedical Applications: A Review

“…Not only in pharmaceutical and medical-based products but also in the production of daily consumer products like soaps, toothpaste, detergents, cosmetic products, etc., noble metal nanoparticles (such as silver, palladium, gold, etc.) have found wide application. , Nanoparticles (NPs) of gold find significant application in medicine − as they play important roles in delivery of drugs and diagnosis of various diseases . Furthermore, nanoparticles of silver play an important role in biological-based equilibrium, technology based on sensors, and various other applications related to biomedicine. − Nanoparticles of platinum find usage as catalysts, − besides being used with other nanoparticles in the field of biomedicine as alloys, shell of core, and other nanostructures that are bimetallic in nature. , In the same way, nanoparticles of palladium play a major role in plasmonic-based wave guiding, sensing, , and electrocatalysis and catalysis. − …”

Investigation of SiO2 Nanoparticle Retention in Flow Channels, Its Remediation Using Surfactants and Relevance of Artificial Intelligence in the Future

“…Previous studies have investigated the role of silica, titania and ZnO NPs for CO 2 capture and found that the inclusion of NPs increases carbon-capturing by at least 8-26% [6][7][8][9]. On the other hand, noticeable increases in oil displacement due to interfacial tension (IFT) modification and wettability alteration have been observed in oil recovery [10,11].…”
