Much of the previous research on carbon capture and storage (CCS) has focused on individual technologies for disposing of CO₂, such as capture, storage, sequestration, or transport. Moreover, recent research work considers utilization of CO₂ as fuels, chemicals, or nutrients for bioreactors. To efficiently manage CO₂ and the economic benefits achieved by this process, the CO₂ transport and processing infrastructure supporting CCS will have to be constructed at a macro-scale. This paper introduces a scalable and comprehensive infrastructure model for CO₂ utilization and disposal that generates an integrated, profit-maximizing CCS system. The proposed model determines where and how much CO₂ to capture, store, transport, utilize or sequester to maximize total annual profit while meeting the CO₂ mitigation target. The applicability of the proposed model is demonstrated using a case study for treating CO₂ emitted by an industrial complex on the eastern coast of Korea in 2020. The results may be important in systematic planning of a CCS infrastructure and in assisting national and international policy makers to determine investment strategies for developing CCS infrastructures.
