Abstract

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) has evolved from a conceptual mitigation option into a cornerstone of global decarbonization strategies. This review provides a comprehensive synthesis of CCS’s technological, intellectual, and institutional evolution, emphasizing its transition from isolated enginee...
