Abstract

Under the background of global warming and climate change, carbon capture, utilization, and storage(CCUS) technology has gradually been recognized by countries around the world as one of the carbon reduction technologies with the most potential. This study described the origin, concept, positioning, and evolution process of CCUS technology in detail and compared the policies, regulations, demonstration projects, and development status of the carbon trading system of CCUS technology at home and abroad. Simultaneously, we systematically summarized the great efforts made by China to promote the development of CCUS technology since China joined the Paris Agreement in 2016, combined with the construction of ecological civilization and the objectives of "carbon peak" and "carbon neutralization." In addition, this study analyzed the existing problems of CCUS technology in China and put forward relevant development suggestions for further promoting the discovery of this technology.

Keywords: carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS); carbon neutrality; carbon reduction; green development; policy system.
