    Abstract : Anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions have become a critical environmental issue because a large amount of CO2 releasing into the atmosphere, particularly from the massive use of fossil fuels, is the major factor promoting the global warming and climate change. To mitigate the CO2 emissions, Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage (CCUS) can be one of important solutions. READ MORE
