Carbon capture and storage
Cella’s approach borrows established EOR practices to mineralize pure‑phase CO2 in basalt rocks while reducing water requirements.
Experts and industry leaders gathered in The Woodlands, Texas, recently to sift through the challenges of carbon capture, utilization, and storage. The puzzle is coming together, but some critical pieces are still needed before the results look like the picture on the box.
An investigative study examines the use of creeping shale formations as a more durable alternative to conventional cement barriers in carbon dioxide storage wells, potentially enabling safer long-term underground carbon storage.
