dc.description.abstractThe world’s glaring CO2 problem as one of the greenhouse gases causing global warming stares us in the face. Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Sequestration is one of the options to curtail this existential challenge. This research is a techno-economic assessment of a hypothetical CO2 pipeline from an NGCC power plant to a sequestration hub of the ACTL. This project answers what the role of CCUS is and how NGCC plants can continue to be relevant. The study showcases five optimized CO2 pipeline transportation routes with five CO2 pipeline sizing design parameters models, leading to seven economic CO2 pipeline construction costing models. The results identified an optimal route with an equivalent construction cost of C$324 million and depicted the project viability against a 2021 carbon tax of $40/tonne of CO2. Existing pipeline corridors and right-of-way surveys can improve pipeline optimization having direct implications on safety and project costs.
