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. Quest would be the first application of CCS technology for an oil sands upgrading operation.

Special interests who preferred to maintain the internal combustion status quo (read oil and auto companies) have long needed to plant seeds of doubt. dependence on oil is necessary for long-term success. That means no immediate miracles and oil will continue to be a vital part of the economy for the foreseeable future.

The electric grid is the most advanced energy-distribution network ever created and is constantly only a few feet away from us (far more ubiquitous than gas/ethanol/hydrogen stations). Given the cost of oil and the economic, geopolitical and ecological effects of our continued reliance on petroleum, electric transportation will be cheap.
