Current Industry Practice in Carbon Capture Corrosion, and the Knowledge Gap it Produces

Vital work is being carried out across engineering to ensure the net-zero commitments as laid out in the Paris agreement are met. Due to increased government investment, carbon capture, utilisation, and storage (CCUS) has become key to achieving these commitments, with some industries only able to decarbonise through CCUS, such as concrete or fertiliser production. Carbon capture has also moved away from vertically integrated systems, with single emitters having dedicated downstream transport and storage sites, to larger systems gathering CO2 with a shared transport and storage infrastructure.

Leveraging their background in industry and working on large carbon capture projects in the UK, Netherlands, Australia, and Canada, the authors examine the methodologies currently used to mitigate corrosion risks in supercritical CO2 streams saturated with impurities, highlighting areas of conservatism, and produce the next steps necessary to address the knowledge gap.


The authors will also propose work to address this gap, through an early-stage concept for a mesoscale experimental project which seeks to categorise the effect impurities have on supercritical CO2 transport. The project aims to reduce conservatism and allow greater uptake of carbon capture across industries.
