Abstract

Due to the increasing trend of global warming caused by man-made carbon dioxide emissions, people pay more and more attention to this problem. Anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions have promoted the progress of global carbon use and storage (CUS) projects. Taking Incopat, Scopus and Web of Science databases as data sources, this study identified 1281 patents and 6435 research papers. Using bibliometric methods and knowledge maps, it quantitatively visualized the distribution of research institutions, cooperative research networks, keyword co-occurrence networks and research performance, and showed the current research pattern and future research direction of carbon dioxide geological utilization and storage technology. The results show that:(1) Carbon dioxide geological utilization and storage technology (CGUS) research hotspots mainly focus on CO2 enhanced oil exploitation technology (EOR), CO2 geological storage, CO2 enhanced natural gas, shale gas exploitation (EGR), Ocean storage, and other technologies; (2) Developed countries such as the United States and the United Kingdom have taken the lead in carrying out research on CGUS. China's follow-up research has become an absolute force in global technology research and development, with the highest number of patent applications and academic papers published. However, international cooperation should be further strengthened to improve research performance; (3) At present, the research on carbon dioxide utilization and storage technology is in a period of vigorous development. The research reputation is high, and the research fields show a trend of cross integration, mainly distributed in Environmental Science, geology, energy science and engineering. Finally, research directions of Carbon dioxide geological utilization and storage technology are proposed to provide a reference for future research.
