Recent Advances in Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage Technologies

Dear Colleagues,

To combat the detrimental impacts of climate change and meet the obligations outlined in the 2015 Paris Agreement, CO₂ Capture, Utilisation, and Storage (CCUS) has emerged as a crucial technology with significant potential for achieving climate targets. CCUS technology achieves the resource utilization of captured CO₂ and stores it in strata such as oil/gas reservoirs and salinity aquifers. However, there are still many challenges involved in several key parts of CCUS, including low-cost carbon capture, long-distance pipeline transport, CO₂-EOR, CO₂-ECBM/shale gas, and long-term safe storage. There is an urgent need for research and development in order that we implement CCUS-related technologies.

In this Special Issue, contributions to recent advances in CCUS technologies are welcome. Topics include, but are not limited to

• New theories and methods for CCUS;
• Laboratory experiments and numerical modelling of CCUS;
• Economic evaluation and field practices of CCUS;
• The environmental impact of CCUS projects;
• CO₂ monitoring

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Processes is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
