Carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) has been in use for decades, but today the industry is seeing rapid growth with nearly 600 projects in various stages of operation and development globally. With this growth, USEA is undertaking a four-part educational series on the basics of CCUS. Part Two of our series explores the infrastructure that makes CCUS possible: CO2 pipelines and transportation systems across the United States. This session will explain what makes a CO2 pipeline unique, how it’s designed for safety, and why simple “pipeline conversions” aren’t always feasible.
