Alberta secures Letter of Intent for Quest commercial-scale CCS project
The province has signed a Letter of Intent with Shell Canada Energy, on behalf of the Athabasca Oil Sands Project: a joint venture among Shell Canada - 60 per cent, Chevron Canada Limited - 20 per cent and Marathon Oil Sands L.P. - 20 per cent to provide $745 million in funding for its Quest project over the next 15 years.Shell Canada Energy/ Chevron Canada Ltd./ Marathon Oil Sands L.P. - Quest project
The Quest project in Alberta’s Industrial Heartland near Fort Saskatchewan will capture and store up to 1.2 million tonnes of CO2 per year from the Scotford Upgrader and from the Scotford Upgrader Expansion. The CO2 will be captured from the steam methane units, which produce hydrogen for upgrading oil sands hydrocarbon known as bitumen.
The CO2 will be injected 2,300 metres below the earth’s surface underneath cap rock. Two injection wells are in the test phase until early 2010. The total cost of the project is projected to be $1.35 billion.

Department of Energy - Secretary Chu Announces First Awards from $1.4 ...
Washington, DC - U.S. Energy Secretary Steven Chu today announced the first round of funding from $1.4 billion from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act for the selection of 12 projects that will capture carbon dioxide from industrial sources for storage or beneficial use. The first phase of these projects will include $21.6 million in Recovery Act funding and $22.5 million in private funding for a total initial investment of $44.1 million. The remaining Recovery Act funding will be awarded to the most promising projects during a competitive phase two selection process.

Locals Try Sinking Plan to Store CO2 Underground
Vattenfall can't bury the CO2 it sequesters at Schwarze Pumpe because authorities have so far failed to provide the necessary permits. So the gas is either sold for industrial cleaning or just vented into the atmosphere.
Meanwhile, when Vattenfall in April unveiled its plan to store carbon in the Neutrebbin area, it triggered a storm of protest.

Shenhua commenced a carbon capture research
As China's largest coal producer, Shenhua Group has concluded an agreement on September 27 with the Virginia University to jointly conduct research on technology to cut down the carbon dioxide emission in the coal-to-oil process, which means that Shenhua has formally set foot in the high-end technology field for carbon emission reduction.
Under the terms of the agreement, both sides will build a demonstration project in the feasibility research phase to recycle 100,000 tons of carbon dioxide every year.
The project is to be implemented in Erdos, a city in north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, to decrease carbon emission for its coal liquefaction projects.

Toshiba to complete construction of carbon capture pilot plant
At the Mikawa pilot plant, Toshiba will deploy and validate its latest advances in separation and capture technology. The Mikawa pilot plant is designed to capture 10 tons of CO2 a day from actual live flue gas of the boiler of the coal- fired thermal power plant.
