France’s IFPEN studying industrial potential of onshore sources of natural hydrogen

Green Car Congress

IFP Energies nouvelles (IFPEN) has become one of the first global research centers actively to investigate onshore natural hydrogen emissions after the discovery of offshore sources of the gas in the 1970s. Some 64,000 km (40,000 miles) of ridges demarcate plate boundaries on the ocean floor.

US Mapping Project Highlights Potential for Mineral Carbonation for CO2 Sequestration

Green Car Congress

Geologists at Columbia University’s Earth Institute and the US Geological Survey have mapped some 6,000 square miles of ultramafic rocks at or near the surface in the US that have the potential for sequestering more than 500 years of US CO 2 production. The US survey is the first of what Lackner hopes will become a global mapping effort.
