DeepC Store (dCS) and carbon capture specialists Pace CCS have submitted the CO₂ supply specification for CStore1, an international decarbonisation project that enables the import of waste CO₂ from large Japanese industry by ship for permanent disposal in deep reservoirs offshore Australia.
Daein Cha, Director of dCS, said: “We are pleased to publish our work with Pace CCS. The CO₂ supply specification is one of the most important technical conditions to determine with our prospective CO₂ suppliers. This ensures that no risk to downstream material integrity or other HSE risks are introduced to our CCS projects, and that we maximise flexibility such that cost of CO₂ capture by the CO₂ suppliers is minimised. We trust that this information will assist other CCS project proponents to determine a pragmatic and robust CO₂ supply specification for their projects.”
Matt Healey, Managing Director of Pace CCS, added: “CStore1 is a world-leading project and we are delighted to share this specification publicly. All CCS projects must ensure integrity, while maximising uptime and allowing maximum flexibility for operations. We hope that this information is useful to regulators and to other projects to find this balance.”
Michael Malavazos, Director of Engineering Operations at the Department for Energy and Mining in South Australia and Chair of the Australian CCS mirror committee to the ISO technical standards committee, praised the work being published: “This is an excellent and promising initiative to setting an international benchmark for CO₂ stream composition for the purpose of ensuring safe and reliable transportation and injection.”

The CO₂ supply specification was developed by deepC Store (dCS) and Pace CCS and is considered a key requirement for the development of project infrastructure. The public release of this specification is intended to inform the emerging CCS industry and global progress towards Net Zero.
The specification considers a wide range of potential CO₂ supply sources including iron & steel furnaces, traditional fossil fuel power plants, biomass power plants and waste incinerators, refinery emissions, cement plants & kilns, lime production, ammonia production, and carbon capture Direct from Air (DAC).
