Proposed Carbon Capture Projects Run The Gamut From All-Natural To Heavy Industrial

After more than a decade involving little new construction activity, U.S. projects designed to remove carbon dioxide (CO₂) from the atmosphere and either store it deep underground or put it to some beneficial use are seeing a resurgence in popularity.

Proposed projects involving carbon capture and storage (CCS) and its close cousin technology, carbon capture utilization and storage (CCUS), cover a broad spectrum of applications, everything from pulling directly from the air using industrial-scale plants to nature-based solutions, such as encouraging ranchers to capture the greenhouse gas in grasslands.
