Abstract

The CO2 capture and storage chain is subdivided into four systems: the system of capture and compression, the transport system, the injection system and the storage system. The main objective of this study is to analyse the CO2 compression and transportation systems. Many studies of carbon capture processes have been undertaken but few of them refer to compression and transport models to determine an integrated CCS process. In the last decade the understanding of CCS technologies has improved greatly. However, there are still no quantitative conclusions concerning either CO2 properties in transport under variable ambient temperatures or the influence of thermal insulation that can be drawn from the calculation of the heat exchange along the pipeline between CO2 flowing in the pipe and the surroundings, as well as with particular stress on the safety risk related to the transport of CO2.
