In the context of carbon neutrality,Carbon Capture,Utilization and Storage technology(CCUS)is considered as one of the core initiatives for future carbon reduction,which helps to solve most of current problems in fossil energy systems and industrial sectors.As an important comprehensive energy utilization base in Northwest China,Xinjiang has a good foundation for the development of CCUS industry.Based on this,this paper focuses on the industrial fixed carbon dioxide emission sources in Xinjiang and uses the mixed integer programming model to study the source-sink matching route.Combined with spatial analysis,using GIS tools reveals the source-sink distribution relationship and source-sink matching results.Finally,the mileage saving algorithm is used to optimize the route of the basic theoretical scheme.The results show that the total cost of implementing CCUS projects is expected to be about 2047.1 billion yuan during the overall planning period(to 2050),and the unit emission reduction cost is about 378 yuan/ton of CO2.Through the mileage saving algorithm,the optimized scheme effectively reduces the mileage of about 3488 kilometers,and the unit cost of emission reduction is reduced to about 273 yuan/ton CO2.In addition,this paper also preliminarily identifies eight potential CCUS cluster development areas,which will provide a useful reference for the large-scale deployment of CCUS technology and the development of CCUS industrial clusters in Xinjiang.
