Energy Transition
UT Austin students Nadia Mouedden and Deena Elhossary taught CO2 injection and storage to students using simple household materials during the International Day of Women and Girls in Science.
The trio introduced an innovative mud drilling system designed for horizontal reservoirs with extreme inclines of up to 102° and depths reaching 11,000 ft.
Divya Tyagi refined a century-old aerodynamic problem by Hermann Glauert, making it simpler and more practical for wind turbine design.
-
Funding from the grant will be used to develop innovative heating, ventilation, air-conditioning, and refrigeration systems, reduce hydrofluorocarbons emissions, and combat climate change by improving refrigerant technology.
-
Learn about natural hydrogen accumulation systems and the relatively minor differences in the setting and exploration processes compared to natural gas exploration.
-
Twenty positions are available for the 2024 Geothermal Energy from Oil and Gas Demonstrated Engineering (GEODE) Internship Program. Deadline: 31 October 2024.
-
LSU will soon be home to a new CO2 research well where students, researchers, and industry professionals will have the opportunity to study CO2 behavior under realistic conditions.
-
The university will receive funding for two decarbonization research initiatives.
-
The annual competition allows students to gain real-world experience in both the technical and policymaking aspects of geothermal energy.
-
Unlocked capital for sustainability initiatives is imperative for an equitable energy transition.
-
The evolution of CCS faces significant challenges. However, prioritizing cost reduction, efficiency improvements, and renewable energy integration will enable CCS to realize its potential in a sustainable, low-carbon future.
-
Change is inevitable, but the resistance to it, especially in cultural and monetary contexts, can be profound. The deep-rooted dependency on crude oil and internal combustion engines exemplifies this inertia, raising questions about how we might transition to new energy sources without overhauling our entire infrastructure.
-
To reduce the impact of greenhouse-gas emissions to an exemplary level, one must apply the sustainable tools the planet Earth already has in smarter and faster ways.
