Corrosion in CCS: Lessons Learned and the Road Ahead
Presenter: Professor Thunyaluk (Kod) Pojtanabuntoeng
Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) plays a vital role in the global effort to reduce CO₂ emissions. While pure, dry CO₂ is generally non-corrosive, real-world CO₂ streams often contain impurities that can significantly accelerate corrosion and jeopardize the integrity of transport and storage infrastructure. This seminar will explore current knowledge surrounding corrosion and material degradation in CCS systems. Despite growing research in this area, several critical gaps remain—particularly inconsistencies in reported findings, limitations in experimental setups, and uncertainties about long-term performance—which undermine the reliability of predictions and system design. To address these challenges, this seminar will present a research initiative focused on investigating the in-situ chemical interactions of impurities in CO₂ streams and their impact across the CCS value chain.
