Despite its potential to deliver substantial carbon reductions, CCS deployment remains challenged by a range of technical, economic, and operational risks that must be systematically addressed. These risks arise across nearly all stages of the CCS value chain, including CO₂ capture, transportation, and storage. Over the past decade, research on CCS has expanded rapidly, and several review studies have attempted to map emerging research trends in this field. However, existing reviews have generally concentrated on individual components of CCS technologies, such as carbon capture processes or the safety of geological storage. These studies have not adequately examined the interdependencies across the entire system. In contrast, the present study provides a more comprehensive perspective by assessing the whole CCS chain, thereby offering a systemic understanding of its performance and implementation challenges. The novelty of this work lies in its integrative approach, combining risk and safety analysis, hazard identification, and economic evaluation, with particular emphasis on the transportation and storage stages. In addition, recent advances involving modern technologies aimed at enhancing CCS safety and sustainability are discussed to highlight potential directions for future research.en2666-5190Unconventional resources2026Elsevierhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Carbon capture and storageCCS economic evaluationCCS hazard identificationCCS risk and safety analysisCO2transportation and storageTechnology::621: Applied Physics::621.8: Machine EngineeringSocial Sciences::363: Other Social Problems and Services::363.7: Environmental ProblemsAssessment of risk, safety, hazard, and economic challenges of CCS pipeline and wellbore implementation: exploring emerging achievements in 2010–2025Review Articlehttps://doi.org/10.15480/882.1697610.1016/j.uncres.2026.10033710.15480/882.16976
