Emission management
This paper presents a flexible, highly cost- and energy-efficient method of gas separation and CO₂ capture from many different gas mixtures with a large range of CO₂ concentrations.
Emissions management covers a wide array of topics such as carbon capture, use, and storage; emissions monitoring; flare management; methods to improve operational efficiency; carbon accounting; and the effect of emissions management on global and local economics. The papers published in the past year span all these subcategories.
This study explores the carbon-capture and mineralization potential of ultramafic rock powders when exposed to flue gases generated from combustion of crude oil and mesquite-derived charcoal.

The collaboration expects to redefine methane detection and contribute to emission-reduction efforts across dozens of industries, including energy, agriculture, manufacturing, and transportation.
-
The authors of this paper describe a continuous monitoring system based on the Internet of Things (IoT) to use methane-concentration sensors permanently installed at facilities and connected to a cloud-based interpretation platform.

With the methane emissions tax contained in the Inflation Reduction Act looming, confusion reigns over just how to calculate emissions and concerns grow the tax will hit smaller and mid-size companies hardest.
-
Six satellites are expected to be launched this year to form a constellation aimed at combating emissions along oil and gas pipelines.
