Study Notes

Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Concentration and Emissions Summary

  • The Miller field is located off the coast of Scotland.
  • The typical CO2 concentration in the flue gas stream of coal-fired boilers is 12-14%.
  • The CO2 removal efficiency for refrigeration is 90%.
  • The cost of CO2 captured for a PC plant with capture is $29/tCO2.
  • The Utsira aquifer is located off the coast of Norway.
  • The cost of CO2 avoided for a PC plant with capture is €29/tCO2.
  • The equation representing CO2 concentration (ppmv) over the years is $315.7+0.68195(Year-1958)+0.014138(Year-1958)^2$.
  • The predicted CO2 concentration (ppmv) in January 2023 was 419.9 ppmv.
  • Charles D. Keeling recognized the importance of remote/unperturbed sampling locations for sustained CO2 measurement.
  • The actual CO2 concentration (ppmv) in January 2023 was 419.5 ppmv.
  • The total CO2 emissions in billion tonnes in 2019 was 36.8 billion tonnes.
  • Charles D. Keeling perfected manometric (IR) measurements for CO2 and is known for the Keeling Curve.
