CO2 Injection Technologies

CO2 injection technologies involve capturing carbon dioxide emissions from industrial sources or power plants and injecting it deep underground into geological formations like depleted oil and gas fields or deep saline aquifers. This process aims to trap CO2 securely, preventing it from entering the atmosphere and contributing to climate change. The injected CO2 compresses and dissolves into the surrounding rocks over time, offering a means to reduce greenhouse gases while allowing continued use of existing infrastructure or enhancing oil recovery. Overall, these technologies are key tools for reducing greenhouse gases and mitigating climate change.
