Ask a carbon capture expert: Dr. Prasanna Joshi

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is considered essential to lowering carbon dioxide emissions from industries such as steel, cement, chemicals, and power generation. The vice president for Low Carbon Solutions technologies, Dr. Prasanna Joshi, explains the basics of this proven technology and how ExxonMobil is helping companies implement CCS at scale.
