Research and Markets: Moving toward Sustainability - Carbon Reduction Technologies in Industry (Technical Insights)


DUBLIN --(Business Wire)--

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/mtkx4t/moving_toward) has announced the addition of the "Moving toward Sustainability - Carbon Reduction Technologies in Industry (Technical Insights)" report to their offering.

The objective of this research is to report on the market penetration of carbon reduction technologies, specifically in reducing emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the manufacturing industry, and map their technological development until 2025. The research scope is focused on carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies applied in industries that will contribute to reducing carbon emission by 2050. CCS is widely established in the oil and gas and chemical industries, but its application in the heavy industries such as steel, aluminum and cement manufacturing, are currently at pilot stage. Organizations, government bodies and private entities worldwide are developing techniques, materials and methods to capture CO volumes. One of the effective ways to capture CO2 is to integrate or retrofit the carbon capture unit into a new or existing power plant respectively. This report provides technical views and potential opportunities for technology developers and the industry.

Briefly, this research service provides:

- A snapshot of advanced carbon reduction technologies, specifically carbon capture, and their capabilities.

- Market impact assessment and analysis of key innovations and technology and business accelerators and challenges in the field of carbon redction technology.



- An assessment of technology adoption levels by region and by technology and an analysis of end users' expectations of the technologies.

- An evaluation of emerging opportunities, technology roadmapping and recommendations for technology development and management.


- Some key patents that provide an insight into notable activities and global participants and a detailed list of contacts in the field, which includes names, titles, addresses, phone numbers, e-mail IDs, and Website URLs.

Key Findings

1. Newer technologies have emerged from collaborations between different entities such as universities, governments and private organizations due to the political interest in reducing carbon emissions, which have encouraged new innovations.

2. Although some of the CCS projects are progressing, the pace is too slow to ensure the technologies' contribution in climate change mitigation. There are insufficient policies by the government such as providing incentives for retrofitting existing power generation plants. Without sufficient policies to attract private entities, there are difficulties in creating economic or market conditions aligned with the vision to broaden CCS demonstration and deployment.

3. CCS technology and deployment should be given equal importance as other clean energy technologies such as renewable energy, and in terms of global climate change policy.

4. An emerging trend will be the development of more specialized enzymes and membranes to be utilized for CCS to meet specific and complex needs of the industry such as sequestration of industrial carbon emission and neutralizing CO to create commercial byproducts.

5. Countries in Asia, particularly China, show an increased interest in developing carbon capture resolutions due to the rapid industrialization, which incur high demands of energy that resulted in power plant expansions.
