Dechezlepretre
et al. (2009)
Took CCS as one of the 13 climate change
mitigation technologies, provided an analysis of geographic distribution and international diffusion in an overall view. CCS
is negligible, 0.35% of all fields’ patents
954 CCS
patents
PATSTAT
WIPO (2009)
Took CCS as one of nine alternative energy
technologies, described CCS trends very
briefly in terms of technology, although
CCS is not, strictly speaking, an alternative
energy
6858 CCS
patents
EPO, WIPO,
USPTO, JPO,
KIPO, SIPO
OECD (2010)
Took carbon capture as one of the
10 CCMTs, presented growth rate, inventive activity, major applicants, and average
patent family size with other technologies
together
8069 carbon capture
patents
PATSTAT
Wang et al.
(2010)
Presented CCS patent key word map by
Thomson Data Analyzer and Aureka,
described growth and IPC distribution
briefly, discussed nine countries’ technological features
1171 CCS
patents
DII
Quintella et al.
(2011)
Gave an overview through patents applications and scientific articles together,
presented five technical routes: absorption,
adsorption, membranes, enzymatic, and
thermodynamics
1123 carbon capture
patents
EPO
Hong et al.
(2013)
Put forward research ideas based on patent
citation analysis approach, different from
other refers in this table. Drew the CCS
development map and identified the main
paths by algorithm of path recognition
which is based on patent citation
1498 CCS
patents
USPTO
Li et al. (2013) Gave details on seventy-nine representative
patents, presented three technical routes:
solvent, sorbent, and membrane, made
perspectives on potential technical routes
9840 carbon capture
patents
Espacenet
Wei and Man
(2014)
Gave a briefly overview of four technical
routes (absorption, adsorption, cryogenic,
and membrane) and three reagents
(absorption reagent, adsorption reagent,
and membrane reagent) by patent and article analysis, discussed CCS policies in
China
1344 carbon capture
patents
USPTO
