Nation urged to boost carbon capture

By HOU LIQIANG in Madrid | CHINA DAILY | Updated: 2019-12-12 00:00

Experts at the UN climate change conference in Spain called for the Chinese government to introduce more preferential policies and use more mandatory measures to help tap the potential of carbon capture and storage as a vital way to mitigate climate change.

They made the appeal at a side event on carbon capture and storage, widely known as CCS, at the Madrid climate change conference, which began on Dec 2 and will conclude on Friday.

CCS, which has been used since the 1970s, "is a technology that can capture up to 90 percent of carbon dioxide ... emissions produced by the use of fossil fuels", preventing them from entering the atmosphere, according to the Carbon Capture and Storage Association.
