Carbon capture and storage
The 1-month project, led by UT Austin's Estibalitz Ukar, will pump CO2-rich water into a 400-m-deep well to test if magnesium-rich rocks at the test site can capture CO2 by turning it into stable minerals.
After a decade of research, the project boasts several achievements including drilling two test wells at depths below 9,800 ft, detailed geologic modeling and reservoir characterization, and multiple publications.
The program will train more than 1,200 workers across Canada for careers in carbon capture, utilization, and storage.
