A carbon sink is a natural or artificial system capable of absorbing and storing carbon dioxide (CO₂) from the atmosphere.

Carbon Capture and Storage projects have been running for a decade but recently gained a new momentum with a growing interest.

Carbon Storage is the isolation of gases responsible of the greenhouse effect from the atmosphere.

The goal is to reverse the atmosphere pollution by injecting captured Dioxyde (CO2) underground in reservoirs for long-term storage or to be re-used in a close future.

Once injected underground, the Dioxyde (CO2) can either:

Deteriorate over a long period of time

Participate to Enhanced Oil Recovery Operations (EOR)

Be later transformed in plastics, fuel, concrete

Carbon Capture concept is to seize gases responsible of the greenhouse effect, preventing their increasing presence in our atmosphere.

From all the gases responsible of the global warming, Carbon Dioxide (CO2) is of course the main culprit, the reason behind the name of Carbon Capture.

Carbon Capture can occur in two situations, directly from the air, or from industrial processes. It is in this second case Carbon Capture is the most efficient by reducing up to 90% of CO2 emissions from a plant.

The Carbon Capture and Sequestration (CCS) is a masterpiece in the loop of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) lifecycle.
After decades of quiet evolution, Carbon Capture seems to finally happen and overcome its barrier of monetization.

Definition Benzene is a colorless, sweet smelling, highly toxic, flammable, liquid aromatic hydrocarbon. Derived from petroleum, Benzene is used in or to manufacture a wide variety of petrochemical products. Benzene evaporates into the air very quickly and dissolves slightly in water. Benzene may also be called benzine or benzol. Comments Because of its famous chemical […]

Definition Methanol is the contraction of Methyl Alcohol.  Methanol may also be called, wood alcohol or wood spirit because it can be produced as a by-product of the wood distillation. Methanol is a light, colorless, flammable liquid at room temperature, and contains less carbon and more hydrogen than any other liquid fuel. Comments Methanol occurs naturally […]
