報告人簡介：

Dr. Paitoon (PT) Tontiwachwuthikul，加拿大里賈納大學工程學院教授，加拿大工程院院士。PT教授自1983年以來一直在加拿大從事二氧化碳的捕獲與利用的研究與新技術開發工作，是位于加拿大里賈納大學的CO₂捕獲國際研究中心的創始人和主持人。同時，童教授還兼任位于加拿大全球知名的二氧化碳驅油工業示范工程Weyburn-EOR IEA項目管理委員會成員。

報告內容摘要：

Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage (CCUS) plays a key role in addressing two important problems of our life-time: (i) climate-change and (ii) energy security. From the perspective of life cycle assessment, the total emission of CO₂ per unit energy produced from the oil produced by CO₂ EOR flooding is much less than that from natural gas. CCUS is an important research area for the petroleum industry for two major reasons. First, it is an important processing step for most natural gas processing plants, petroleum refineries, and chemical and energy production facilities such as hydrogen production plants, synthesis gas plants, coal-gasification units, and oil-sand operations. Secondly, this area of research is important because the captured carbon dioxide can be used directly as a flooding agent for EOR applications, which are critical for sustaining the current production of crude oil and providing energy for China and the rest of the world.Therefore, CCUS can provide double benefits. Not only does the commodity chemical of the captured CO₂ generate revenue, but using the captured CO₂ in EOR processes also reduces the net CO₂ released to the atmosphere at minimal cost. Hence, there is an urgent need for the research and development of cost-effective CCUS technologies, especially for future applications in the petroleum industry.
