To that end, we need to establish technology to make fossil energy environmentally friendly through carbon capture for oil and gas and coal gasification and coal liquefaction for coal.
Jakarta – The Indonesian federal government is committed to executing a low-carbon energy policy to lower greenhouse gas emissions on a national scale in 9 years’ time, National Energy Council (DEN) member Satya Widya Yudha has actually said.
” To that end, we require to develop technology to make fossil energy environmentally friendly through carbon capture for oil and gas and coal gasification and coal liquefaction for coal,” he stated in a declaration issued in Jakarta on Tuesday.

The application of carbon capture innovation can enormously lower greenhouse gas emissions and boost oil and gas production, he added.
The technology includes a series of procedures varying from separating and recording carbon dioxide from exhaust gas emission sources, transporting believed co2 to storage websites, to storing it in safe locations, Yudha said.
A number of items can be produced from carbon capture, consisting of hydrogen, ammonia, iron, steel, and cement, he mentioned.
Meanwhile, gasification technology is the procedure of converting coal into gas, consisting of dimethyl ether, which serves as fuel and raw material for the chemical market, he stated.
Liquefaction technology is the procedure of converting coal into liquid, which functions as a raw material for the production of kerosene and diesel, he notified.
” The national dedication associated to environment change includes lowering greenhouse gas emissions by 29 percent by itself and 41 percent with worldwide assistance by 2030 (nationally determined contributions),” Yudha kept in mind.
In parallel to the undertaking, the government needs to push the advancement of brand-new and renewable resource on account of its big potential, he said. Therefore, technological support is required to make the rates of tidy energy more competitive, he added.
Above all, the general public needs to alter its behavior to control the Earth’s temperature level by making effective use of fuel given that Indonesia is among the nations which believe in climate change, he stated. (INE)
