Reducing cost and improving computability of reservoir simulation is an important goal in the process of enabling CCS (Carbon Capture \& Storage) as a large-scale technology for mitigating CO2 emissions. In terms of computation time data-driven approaches have potential to outweigh the performance of numerical reservoir simulators, learning...

As the world grapples with the escalating challenges of climate change, Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) emerges as a crucial solution, especially for decarbonizing dominant industries such as steel, cement, and petrochemicals. The Intergovernmental Panel of Climate Change (IPCC) and the International Energy Agency (IEA) have highlighted the...

Carbon sequestration involves the conversion of carbon dioxide gas into carbonates through reactions with magnesium or calcium bearing minerals, presenting a potential method to mitigate CO2 emissions and reduce their release into the atmosphere. This process can be classified into two categories: in-situ (subsurface) and ex-situ (surface). CO2...

Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is considered an essential solution to reaching climate goals. The two main identified transport modes in CCS, pipelines and ships, are widely compared to each other in the literature. This research contributes to the literature about the evaluation of transportation modes in CCS chains, by determining to what...

The maritime sector plays an important role in energy transition because offshore vessels are used for building offshore renewables but also have high emissions. The European Union (EU) has determined that from 2025 the maritime sector must pay per ton of CO2 emission. Heerema Marine Contractors (HMC) is an essential player in the maritime...

As the climate is changing, the need to mitigate and adapt to the climate is getting more urgent every day. One of the biggest causes of global warming is the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide. Simultaneously, we are destroying one of our biggest carbon sinks; our peat soil. Peat soil in the Netherlands is destroyed by the Dutch polder system and...

The incumbent dominant design for hydrogen production used in refineries in the Netherlands is producing grey hydrogen using steam methane reforming with CO2 as byproduct. Therefore, the current incumbent hydrogen production technology used in refineries in the Netherlands is unsustainable. However, it is still unclear which hydrogen production...

Industry is a major contributor to the rise in global CO2 emissions, constituting one fifth of the global energy consumption, of which significant amount is provided by fossil fuel combustion. Following the Paris agreement, emphasis has been made on decarbonization of the industrial sector. This thesis focuses on industrial decarbonization by...

This project considers the implications of carbon-negative materials in product design. It speculates on a future where decarbonization of different sectors of the economy increases the ubiquity of carbon-negative materials. Under these conditions, certain materials become a source of negative emissions, and their consumption benefits the planet...

As the energy transition is starting to accelerate, the Dutch industrial sector is in danger of falling behind with its decarbonisation efforts. Green hydrogen is often suggested as a key-player to decarbonize the industry, replacing fossil fuels used for process heat generation as well as in hydrogen feedstock production. As there are an...

The steel making industry is highly energy intensive and a great contributor of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. It generated between 7% and 9% of direct emissions from the global use of fossil fuels in 2017 [1]. Gas emissions in an integrated steel mill (ISM) arise mainly from three streams: coke oven gas (COG), blast furnace gas (BFG) and basic...

Geological storage of COኼ is a crucial and upcoming technology to reduce anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. Due to the buoyant characteristic of injected gas, the security of underground storage is a major concern. To asses the security of COኼ storage, an accurate prediction of the gas plume behaviour is essential. In this study, a fully...

The current situation with green gas emission requires the development of low carbon energy solutions. However, a significant part of the modern energy industry still relies on fossil fuels. To combine these two contradictory targets, we investigate a strategy based on a combination of CO2 sequestration with Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) in the...

To limit global warming to 2 degrees Celsius in 2100, the European power sector needs to transform. Renewable energy capacity is required to reach this ambition, together with transmission and storage capacity to maintain grid stability. Carbon capture and storage could potentially decrease the required renewable energy capacity, while...

The development of carbon capture and storage (CCS) in energy-intensive industries (EnIIs) in the EU is currently stalling while many recognize its importance for reducing CO2 emissions. The socio-technical system of CCS in EnIIs is characterized by resource interdependencies, conflicting interests and diverging perspectives on problems and...

Heating constitutes about 40% of the final energy consumption at TU Delft. In the present, the district heating system in campus obtains its energy from the combustion of natural gas in a combined heat and power plant. Although this plant produces heat and electricity with an efficiency over 80%, the dependance on a fossil fuel presents an...

Following the industrial revolution started circa 1750, global energy consumption and, consequently, CO2 emissions have been rapidly increasing. The amount of CO2 rose from 280 ppm in 1750 to 388 ppm in 2010. This increasing amount of GHGs gases, specifically CO2, is the underlying cause of global warming. According to the IPCC report, with the...

Several potential and challenges on the technical and non-technical aspects of carbon capture and storage (CCS) in Indonesia had been investigated by Indonesia CCS Study Working Group (CCS study group) in 2009. Yet, public acceptance on CCS is still less addressed in the CCS study group’s report and very little is known about the perspectives of...

The technology of FricDiff, an abbreviation of Frictional Diffusion, can be used to separate gases by adding a third gas, a so-called sweep gas, to the system. It is based on the diffusion difference of the feed molecules in the sweep gas. FricDiff is a proven principle and works at lab scale. The aim of the research is to study the technical...
