Findings from a study by a team at the University of Oklahoma suggest that the stability of diesel fuel—i.e., The production of ULSD requires extensive processing of crude oil to reduce the amount of sulfur to a maximum of 15 ppm S. Concentrations can range from 0.05% to 14% by weight in crude oils and natural bitumens.
In the United States, the transportation sector accounts for two-thirds of total US oil consumption and about one-third of total anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. Ceramatec will utilize an efficient electrochemical deoxygenation process to develop cost-effective technology to separate oxygen from bio-oil.
A study by researchers from the University of Oklahoma and the US Naval Research Laboratory has found that biodiesel is easily susceptible to biological degradation by anaerobic bacteria.

Illinois Basin (Kentucky, Illinois, Indiana and Tennessee): Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois aims to lead a project to evaluate the domestic occurrence of strategic elements in coal, coal-based resources and waste streams from coal use. DOE Funding: $1,483,787. DOE Funding: $1,500,000. DOE Funding: $1,499,817.
million to six new projects to develop new technologies, processes, or procedures that could result in improved understanding and management of systemic risk in offshore oil and gas operations. Oklahoma State University. Louisiana State University. University of Houston. Louisiana State University.
The potential benefits of this research range from decreasing oil consumption to increasing options for American farmers. Bartley, University of Oklahoma, Norman. Eric Beers, Virginia Polytechnic and State University, Blacksburg. Braun, University of Missouri, Columbia. Luca Comai, University of California, Davis.
The US Department of Energy (DOE) announced that the use of an alkaline surfactant polymer (ASP) flooding technique has successfully improved oil recovery at a 106-year old Illinois field by more than 300%. enhanced by additional surfactants, have the capability of mobilizing additional oil. Such surfactants, when. water production.
Schematic illustration of the reactions taking place at the water/oil interface in the solid-stabilized emulsions. Researchers at the University of Oklahoma have developed a new family of solid catalysts that can stabilize water-oil emulsions and catalyze reactions at the liquid/liquid interface.

A primary goal of Fossil Energy’s Oil and Natural Gas Program is to enhance the responsible development of domestic natural gas and oil resources that supply the country’s energy. West Virginia University, Morgantown, W.Va. University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, Ark. University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pa.
Energy-Water cohort teams will develop new, energy-efficient processing technologies for industrial (particularly oil and gas) and municipal wastewater. Columbia University, Expanding the Boundaries of Autotrophic Nitrogen Removal for Energy-Efficient Clean Water Production – $1,620,136. Energy-Water Technologies cohort.
The crop propagations, planting and mitigation and monitoring plan for Freedom Giant Miscanthus, a crop based on strains developed by Mississippi State University, will be coordinated by REPREVE Renewables LLC. This Arkansas BCAP project area is sponsored by MFA Oil Biomass LLC, in Columbia, Mo.
Researchers at Oklahoma State University are developing a novel natural Gas and Biomass to Liquids (GBTL) technology that will synergistically use biomass (e.g. Bio-oil produced from biomass fast pyrolysis technology can be converted into hydrocarbons; however, this process is challenging due to the instability of bio-oil.
Academics from the University of Texas at Austin have mapped the geology of the Texas Gulf Coast and have determined this region is suited for injection and storage of pressurized CO 2. The company has corporate offices in San Antonio, Houston and Monterrey, Mexico.
million 13 projects aimed at reducing risks while enhancing the environmental performance of drilling for natural gas and oil in ultra-deepwater settings. The Board of Regents of the University of Oklahoma — Intelligent Casing-Intelligent Formation Telemetry System. Brief descriptions of the selected projects follow: ?.
Arizona State University, in partnership with Fluidic Energy Inc., RTI International will work with ADM, Albemarle and ConocoPhillips to develop a novel single-step catalytic biomass pyrolysis process with high carbon conversion efficiency to produce stable bio-crude oil with low oxygen content. DOE grant:$5,349,932).
The process also uses less than half the water per gallon than required for the production of gasoline from conventional crude, and about one-third to one-quarter of the water per gallon required for the production of gasoline from oil sands oil, Bolson said. On average, approximately 3.0
The University of Oklahoma (Norman, OK) plans to develop, build, and validate a low-cost, field-installable, remotely-controlled natural gas compressor retrofit kit. University of New Mexico aims to develop advanced gas sensors (mixed potential electrochemical [MPE]) coupled with advanced computation (artificial neural networks).
REGULATORY RISKS In Oklahoma, which has several brine deposits, the Oklahoma Corporation Commission – which oversees oil and gas development – said it has no jurisdiction over lithium production and royalties, and referred comment to the state’s Department of Mines, which said it also does not oversee lithium. .
In Boston, Lawrence Lowell, president of Harvard University, said the discovery and harnessing of electricity was the greatest single advancement in human history. His chief concern was running out of coal, gas, and oil, not their negative impacts on the environment.
You can go to events where you recycle your old paper tax records, your motor oil, your cellphone, computers and other electronics. . You can even watch NBC-Universal TV and see how they turned their logo green and laugh at their funny PSAs about cutting your energy use or carbon footprint. So what am I doing today for Earth Day 2012?
