Abstract
Technological approaches to the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions in energy production are considered. Three levels of carbon dioxide generation by fuel power plants are identified. Fuel power plants were analyzed in terms of the most sensitive parameters in carbon capture, utilization and storage technologies: pressure, purity, and the amount of generated carbon dioxide. Ranging the carbon dioxide outlet parameters makes it possible to divide power plants into three groups: A, B, and C. Using the screening analysis method developed within a life cycle analysis system, the integral characteristics of the main technologies for utilization CO2 emissions from energy production are considered depending on the level of technological maturity and market attractiveness. The groups of geological recycling, mineralization, carbonization, and bioutilization that are promising for the Russian industrial and energy complex are identified.
