Abstract
To solve the global climate change, greenhouse gas mitigation technologies have been vitally important. CO2 is the primary greenhouse gas emitted by human activities, mainly combustion of fossil fuel. CO2 Capture and Storage (CCS) is one of the key technologies to reduce CO2 emission. CO2 capture by chemical absorption has been used in the Oil & Gas and chemical industries for removal of CO2 from gas streams. It is expected to be deployed to largescale carbon emission source such as thermal power plants in the near future. In this article, the issues of chemical absorption method is reviewed, and our efforts for addressing them are introduced.
