Using activated amine (ADIP-X), Quest will capture one-third of the CO 2 emissions from Shell’s Scotford Upgrader, which turns oil sands bitumen into synthetic crude that can be refined into fuel and other products. The CO 2 is a byproduct of the production of hydrogen, which is used to upgrade the bitumen.

The carbon capture process at the Scotford oil sands upgrader will capture about 35% of emissions. CO 2 will be captured from the upgrader’s hydrogen manufacturing units (steam methane reformers) by an absorber vessel using an amine solvent. —John Abbott, Shell’s Executive Vice President of Heavy Oil.

An analysis of the US refining sector, based on linear programming (LP) modeling, finds that refining plausibly high volumes of Canadian oil sands crudes in US refineries in 2025 would lead to a modest increase in refinery CO 2 emissions (ranging between 5.4% to 9.3%) from a 2010 baseline, depending upon the supply scenario.

will become less common over the next 10-years and that a mix of alternative fuel vehicles including electric, biofuel, hydrogen and solar will and is now seeing tremendous market growth. You also repeat the "peak oil" argument that Ive been reading since the 60s. We have oil! Think Bakken and Alberta sands.
