Shell will proceed with the first carbon capture and storage (CCS) project for an oilsands operation in Canada. billion Quest project will be built on behalf of the Athabasca OilSands Project joint venture owners (Shell, Chevron and Marathon Oil) and with support from the Governments of Canada and Alberta.
The carbon capture process at the Scotford oilsands upgrader will capture about 35% of emissions. CO 2 will be captured from the upgrader’s hydrogen manufacturing units (steam methane reformers) by an absorber vessel using an amine solvent. —John Abbott, Shell’s Executive Vice President of Heavy Oil. Earlier post.)
The provincial government of Alberta and the federal government of Canada will invest C$865 million (US$822 million) in a large-scale Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) project in the Athabasca oilsands. Tags: Canada Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) Oilsands. The project will capture and store up to 1.2
An analysis of the US refining sector, based on linear programming (LP) modeling, finds that refining plausibly high volumes of Canadian oilsands crudes in US refineries in 2025 would lead to a modest increase in refinery CO 2 emissions (ranging between 5.4% to 9.3%) from a 2010 baseline, depending upon the supply scenario.
Using activated amine (ADIP-X), Quest will capture one-third of the CO 2 emissions from Shell’s Scotford Upgrader, which turns oilsands bitumen into synthetic crude that can be refined into fuel and other products. The CO 2 is a byproduct of the production of hydrogen, which is used to upgrade the bitumen.
NREL performed dilute acid pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis of both NABC feedstocks (harvest residues from Catchlight Energy LLC (a 50:50 joint venture between Chevron and Weyerhauser, earlier post ) and corn stover from ISU) and shipped the hydrolysate to Amyris for testing.

will become less common over the next 10-years and that a mix of alternative fuel vehicles including electric, biofuel, hydrogen and solar will and is now seeing tremendous market growth. You also repeat the "peak oil" argument that Ive been reading since the 60s. We have oil! Think Bakken and Alberta sands.
