Carbon dioxide capture and storage: A route to net zero for power and industry CLIMATE CHANGE : SCIENCE AND SOLUTIONS | BRIEFING 5 Carbon dioxide capture and storage: A route to net zero for power and industry In brief Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is essential for net However, for hard-to-decarbonise areas such as heavy zero emissions to be achieved in any economy using industry, CCS may repre. [...] capture with carbon storage (DACCS), using chemical processes to capture CO2 from the Carbon Capture and Use (CCU) is defined air, and bioenergy with carbon capture and by the IPCC as a process in which "CO2 storage (BECCS) which captures CO2 from is captured and then used as a chemical combustion or fermentation of biomass.
