Carbon capture and storage in Australia Carbon capture and storage in Australia Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is an approach to try to mitigate global warming by capturing carbon dioxide from large point sources such as fossil fuel power plants and storing it instead of releasing it into the atmosphere. Carbon capture and storage is also used to sequester filtered out of natural gas from certain from natural gas fields. While typically the has no value after being stored, Enhanced Oil Recovery uses to increase yield from declining oil fields. There are no currently-operating large-scale CCS projects in Australia, although the Gorgon gas project will qualify
Renewable natural gas supply contracts. Applications: In contrast to being renewable, biogas creates similar environmental pollutants as ordinary natural gas fuel, such as carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxide, hydrogen sulfide and particulates. Any unburned gas that escapes contains methane, a long lived greenhouse gas. The key difference from ordinary natural gas is that it is often considered partly or fully carbon neutral, the carbon dioxide contained in the biomass is naturally renewed in each generation of plants, rather than being released from fossil stores and increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide.
