Turning Proven Engineering Into Practical Carbon Capture Solutions

Caterpillar is known for the focus and dedication we put into our products and services. Now, we’re applying that same effort toward bringing our carbon capture expertise to your operation. 

Carbon capture technology is designed to prevent carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions from entering the atmosphere and support emissions‑reduction efforts. As CO₂ TSA technology transitions from small‑scale applications to large industrial operations, Caterpillar is helping oil and gas customers meet compliance requirements and support their sustainability‑related objectives through a viable, modern solution.

Carbon Capture Services
That Pay for Themselves

Learn how Cat® carbon capture provides cost-effective benefits like potential penalty avoidance, tax credits, emissions trading, and improved return on investment (ROI). Engineers have successfully developed and field-tested a temperature swing adsorption (TSA) system designed to effectively capture CO2 emissions. The Cat carbon capture solution can achieve up to 95% carbon capture performance at a competitive cost, providing a scalable method for operators to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and improve overall cost of ownership for the system’s lifecycle.

What are the key factors in determining site suitability?

Carbon capture success requires operators to first assess site feasibility, financial incentives (like tax credits and carbon tax reduction), and technical considerations, like CO2 transportation and sequestration options and compatibility with current equipment. See how operators should evaluate the four primary capture methodologies — absorbent, membrane, cryogenic, and adsorbent systems — to select the most efficient and cost-effective approach for their specific site conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions


How can carbon capture be integrated with existing engines and assets?

By integrating with existing engine systems and exhaust streams, carbon capture can be added as a retrofit or upgrade without replacing core equipment.


How does carbon capture help industries meet emissions regulations and decarbonization goals?

Carbon capture separates CO₂ from engine exhaust before it is released, significantly reducing emissions while allowing engines to operate normally.


What industries benefit most from carbon capture solutions?

Gas Compression and Power Generation industries both present strong opportunities for carbon capture, especially in facilities where multiple engines operate in close proximity. These clustered engine environments enable scalable, integrated solutions that help customers reduce emissions efficiently while maintaining reliable performance.


How does carbon capture compare to other decarbonization options like fuel switching or electrification?

Carbon capture is an ideal solution in hard-to-abate industries where power density and reliability are critical and it allows the continued use of existing assets. Grid power or alternative fuels may not be available at remote sites.
