Professional Certificate of Competency in Carbon Capture

Engineering Institute of Technology

The world is facing threatening climate challenges and the energy situation in the world is changing quickly. To achieve the UN goal of reliable and sustainable energy for all, energy conversion and reduction of CO2 emissions are critical. Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is generally considered a key technology to decrease carbon emissions from the energy industry during the transition to renewable energy generation, and in the longer term to decarbonize refining, iron and steel, cement, chemical and other industries. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), CCS is the most significant technology option for reducing direct emissions from industry, with the potential to mitigate 2 to 2.5Gigatonnes of CO2 per year globally by 2050. Achieving this target reasonably requires a combination of advanced expertise in subsurface engineering and innovative thinking.This course explores how the technology of CCS and utilization can deliver a long-term solution to provide a long-term solution to reduce excess carbon dioxide in our atmosphere. CCS prevents carbon dioxide emissions from penetrating the atmosphere and deposits them permanently and securely underground. The goal of CCS is to bring about heavy reductions in carbon dioxide emissions to the atmosphere.Course BenefitsYou may be eligible to claim CPD points through your local engineering associationReceive a Certificate of Completion from EITLearn from well-known faculty and industry experts from around the globeFlexibility of attending anytime from anywhere, even when you are working full-timeInteract with industry experts during the webinars and get the latest updates/announcements on the subjectExperience global learning with students from various backgrounds and experience which is a great networking opportunityImprove your technical expertise in CCSBroaden understanding and open doors to potential careers in geoscience or reservoir engineering related to CCS projectsThis course is suited to: Chemical Engineers, Petrochemical Engineers, Petroleum Engineers, Environmentalists, Government officials and regulators and Sustainability advisorsAfter completing this course, you will be able toDifferentiate between carbon dioxide removal and carbon capture and storage approachesKnow the technical details of carbon capture and storage, risks and benefits, and limitations to large-scale deploymentUnderstand the role of CCS in CO2 emissions-reductionsDevelop awareness of the role of geoscience and reservoir engineering in CCS
