The objective of this project is the development of a methodology for detecting the leakage of bubbles of CH4 and CO2 gases or their mixtures in the underwater environment, originating from storage reservoirs of these same gases. For this purpose,

(Project Concluded in July 08, 2020) The main goal of the project is to develop a methodology for the construction of salt caverns based on salt dissolution in order to capture, storage and separate CO2, CH4 and other gases under

(Project Concluded in July 08, 2020) In the field of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS), the environmental impact from leaks in storage areas is a source of great concern. This project aims to mitigate the technological gaps, especially in Brazil,

(Project Concluded in July 08, 2020) This project deal with CO2 utilization, emphasizing chemical conversion processes that use CO2 as feedstock to generate high added-value products. The main objective is to deeply study CO2 conversion processes, including their modeling, simulation and optimization, thus

The scope of the proposal concerns the manufacture and characterization of nano-oxides (NOx) to promote ideal conditions to synthetize organic molecules from CO2 and H2O by photocatalytic reactions. Semiconductor oxide, surface composition and particle size of nano-oxides play a key

The major goal of this project is the development catalytic processes for the conversion of CO2 into high added value chemicals and fuels. This goal will be achieved through the design of innovative hybrid catalysts using concepts of nanotechnology and
