Abstract

CO2 capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) as well as renewable energy (RE) technologies are key options for the decarbonization of economies. The high cost of such pathways makes it important to develop a strategic screening approach that yields the optimal implementation of CO2 reduction pathways while ensuring the economic viability of such projects. This work proposes a Process Systems Engineering approach to develop minimum cost CO2 reduction pathways. The approach implements a systematic analysis methodology to understand key decisions of the optimal design. After that, a detailed network portfolio can be obtained by solving a reduced optimization problem. The method is demonstrated in a case study which shows how the high-level analysis can be used to guide the detailed design of CO2 reduction networks, resulting in an efficient systematic planning.
