WRI paper outlines technological pathways for decarbonizing petroleum refining

Green Car Congress

Refinery emissions—GHGs such as carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide—can be divided into three categories: stationary combustion, process, and miscellaneous. Process emissions can be abated through carbon capture and storage technology. This could reduce fuel carbon intensities by up to 80%.
