Abstract: Global warming is a critical crisis confronting the world, with industrial CO2 emissions accounting for 65% of global greenhouse gases and serving as the leading driver of the greenhouse effect. This paper focused on the development and challenges of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technology in China. As the world's largest emitter of carbon dioxide, China has made substantial efforts to combat global climate change through CCS, which captures and stores CO2 from industrial processes. The paper analyzed the technical principles of CCS, covering capture, transportation, and storage methods, while assessing their feasibility within China’s coal-dependent energy structure. Key issues such as public acceptance, legal frameworks, and cost-efficiency are also examined. The study concluded by proposing strategies to overcome these challenges and promote large-scale deployment of CCS technology, emphasizing the importance of technological innovation, policy alignment, and international collaboration. By addressing barriers to implementation and exploring innovative solutions, this paper aimed to deepen the understanding of CCS technology’s role in mitigating climate change, ultimately contributing to global initiatives for environmental sustainability and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.
