Abstract
The article discusses the importance of finding effective technological solutions for CO2 capture and subsequent utilisation in the context of underground storage or underground injection of carbon dioxide in order to implement water-gas effects to enhance hydrocarbon recovery. The authors also focus on current and promising carbon capture methods, comparing their technological features, advantages and disadvantages. Conclusions are drawn about which technological developments may be the most promising for solving the problem of reducing the carbon footprint of energy industry enterprises, and where there is a need for further research, despite the high energy costs and technological complexities.
