Carbon Capture and Storage in the Cement Industry: A Comparative Scenario of India and Mexico
摘要
This study aims to provide a comparative analysis of carbon capture and storage (CCS) practices in the cement industries of India and Mexico. India has adopted innovative CCS technologies and strategies to mitigate its carbon footprint, supported by government investment. In contrast, Mexico faces significant challenges due to a less developed regulatory framework for CCS. This article explores the current state of CCS technologies, their economic implications, and the environmental and social impacts in both countries. By analyzing the scenarios in India and Mexico, the study identifies key practices, challenges, and opportunities for enhancing sustainability in the cement industry. The findings emphasize the importance of adopting effective public policies and learning from successful strategies implemented in other nations to address global CO2 emission challenges, thereby contributing actively to the UN 2030 goals.
