  • Description: <p>This paper reviews methodological approaches for determining the carbon footprint of captured CO<sub>2</sub> as carbon feedstock, and shows why some approaches lead to suboptimal choices of CO<sub>2</sub> sources and that increased consistency in life cycle assessment (LCA) studies on CCU is needed.</p>
