Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh have found that the air pollution and greenhouse gas costs of shipping crude by rail are nearly twice as large as those for oil pipelines. Air pollution and greenhouse gas damages for transportation by railroad and pipelines to the gulf coast.
The US Department of Energy has selected ten projects at nine universities for funding under the Office of Fossil Energy’s (FE) University Turbine Systems Research (UTSR) Program. The selected projects include: University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Mich. University of Texas at Austin, Austin, Tex. Earlier post.).
Oil and gas producers rely on flaring to limit the venting of natural gas from their facilities. New research led by the University of Michigan shows that in the real world, this practice is far less effective than estimated, releasing five times more methane in the US than previously thought. Genevieve Plant, Eric A.
The University of NorthDakota Energy & Environmental Research Center (EERC) is working with FuelCell Energy, Inc., FuelCell Energy’s cell would create liquid fuel from natural gas. The ability to monetize natural gas in cost-effective smaller-scale plants could be a value-added prospect in various industries.
The design of the large pilot plant will incorporate an advanced combustion design and control features that have been verified through performance testing on the sub-pilot unit at Ohio State University and further testing on the small-scale pilot at Babcock & Wilcox. University of Illinois. University of Alaska Fairbanks.
University of NorthDakota. Initial Engineering, Testing, and Design of a Commercial-Scale, Post-Combustion CO 2 Capture System on an Existing Coal-Fired Generating Unit The University of NorthDakota will design and determine the cost of installing a post-combustion CO 2 capture system at the Milton R.
The US Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Fossil Energy (FE) has selected 11 research projects that will help find ways to extract more energy from unconventional oil and gas resources while reducing environmental risks for awards totalling $12.4 The selections include $10.3
The Energy & Environmental Research Center (EERC) at the University of NorthDakota, in partnership with Cummins Power Generation, Inc., The Cummins generator, which normally runs on natural gas, has been modified to run on synthetic natural gas (syngas) produced by an EERC-developed advanced gasification unit.
The US Department of Energy (DOE) has selected 8 research projects for funding that will focus on gasification of coal/biomass to produce synthetic gas (syngas) as a pathway to producing power, hydrogen, fuel or chemicals. Tucker, Ga.) CoalTek, teaming with the University of Kentucky Center for Applied Energy Research in Lexington, Ky.,
OmniGas uses a patent-pending molten slag approach to produce syngas that can be used by more than 14,000 US industrial consumers of large volumes of natural gas. The 24-month, $945,000 grant is focused on the design and demonstration of a one ton per day OmniGas gasifier to process biomass, coal, and blends thereof. Earlier post.).
The US Department of Energy (DOE) has selected 10 university projects to conduct advanced turbine technology research under the Office of Fossil Energy’s University Turbine Systems Research (UTSR) Program. Texas A&M University. Purdue University. The 10 projects were selected competitively among 33 applications.
Shale oil production generates greenhouse gas emissions at levels similar to conventional crude oil production, according to a pair of new studies released by the US Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory. These are shale formations with low permeability and must be hydraulically fractured to produce oil and gas.
Accelergy Corporation, an advanced coal-to-liquids company, has formed a strategic partnership with the Energy & Environmental Research Center (EERC) at the University of NorthDakota.
We are beginning to get a sense of regional variation in methane emissions from natural gas production. The gas fields we studied for this paper produced about 20% of the natural gas in the United States, and more than half the shale gas, so this moves us closer to understanding methane leaks from US natural gas production.
The Plains CO 2 Reduction (PCOR) Partnership, one of seven members of the US Department of Energy’s (DOE) Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnerships program, has begun collecting core samples from a new characterization well near Spectra Energy’s Fort Nelson natural gas processing plant in British Columbia, Canada.

The PCOR Partnership brings together more than 80 partners—consisting of public agencies, utilities, oil and gas companies, engineering firms, nonprofit organizations, and universities—in a region that includes all or part of nine US states and four Canadian provinces.
Under this cost-shared research and development (R&D), DOE is awarding $51 million to nine new projects for coal and natural gas power and industrial sources. This work will focus on designing a carbon capture system capable of capturing 50 to 70 percent of CO 2 emissions from blast furnace gas. LH CO 2 MENT Colorado Project.
The Bakken Formation, a shale oil and gas field in NorthDakota and Montana, is emitting roughly 2% (about 250,000 tons per year) of the globe’s ethane, according to new study led by researchers at the University of Michigan.

Seven universities have picked up a significant funding boost from the US Department of Energy in an effort to investigate the technology needed for turbines using coal-derived synthesis gas and high hydrogen content fuels.
EV infrastructure is much less widespread than gas stations—and the number of EV chargers is only part of the problem. Chargers need to expand ahead of EV demand Charging infrastructure is not universally present, either. However, they are less excited about the possibility of finding charging points.
This marks Cambridges second major renewable energy deal, following last years VPPA for a wind farm in NorthDakota. Together, these projects are accelerating the citys efforts to cut carbon emissions more effectively than waiting for the Massachusetts grid to go fully renewable by 2050. Why solar in Illinois?
