PNNL team develops new low-cost method to convert captured CO2 to methane

Green Car Congress

The authors’ assessment identified further cost savings, in that CO 2 captured by EEMPA can be converted to methane on site. Traditionally, CO 2 is stripped from water-rich solvents and sent off site to be converted or stored underground. Heldebrant, D., Kothandaraman, J., Lopez, J.S., Walter, E.D., Burton, S.D. and Dagle, R.A.

Novel sorbent achieves 90% carbon capture in DOE-sponsored test

Green Car Congress

Concern over the impact of greenhouse gas emissions and increasing CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere are driving the search for low-cost and efficient technologies to capture and store or utilize CO2 produced from sources such as power plants. Since a typical 500?megawatt

Santos reports successful CO2 capture and storage injection trial in Moomba CCS project

Green Car Congress

Ultimately, the Moomba CCS Project has the potential to store up to 20 million tonnes of carbon dioxide per year. Today, CCS projects store around 40 million tonnes per year of carbon dioxide, far short of the more than two billion tonnes of carbon dioxide the IEA forecasts that CCS projects will need to store each year by 2040.

DOE Selects 19 Projects to Monitor and Evaluate Geologic CO2 Storage

Green Car Congress

In order for low-cost electricity from coal-fired power plants to remain available, the DOE said, economical methods for capturing and storing the greenhouse gas emissions from these plants must be developed. High-sensitivity permanent downhole gauges will be placed in a formation where CO 2 is being stored. Simulation.

Study suggests that decarbonizing US transport sector by converting waste CO2 to fuels would require economical air-capture of CO2

Green Car Congress

In the near-term pre-CCS era, with a low cost of carbon, the economical solution for power providers is to vent the CO 2 and pay the fees, passing on the costs to customers. Over time, however, as the CO 2 price increases, it eventually becomes more economical to either retrofit plants to capture and store most of.
