Professor from the University of Tokyo presented a CCS project in a saline aquifer in Japan; in his opinion, Brazil cam become a leader in the storage of CO2 in salt caverns On Wednesday, October 17, the FAPESP Shell Research
Scientists study the use of hybrid catalysts to accelerate the hydrogenation of CO2; they also investigate how CO2, in a supercritical state, reacts with hydrogen in the presence of different catalysts Obtain value-added products from CO2 by using catalyzers that
“Selling” CO2 removed from the atmosphere in the form of other fuels or of chemical products for industry could change our view regarding carbon and help reduce emissions One of the current technology trends for carbon abatement is to convert
Geologist Cristina Rodrigues, Professor at Portugal’s Fernando Pessoa University, came to Brazil to lecture at the Energy and Environment Institute (IEE/USP), at the invitation of the FAPESP Shell Research Centre for Gas Innovation (RCGI). She holds a degree from the University
The event will also offer two minicourses on the subject The Energy and Environment Institute (IEE/USP), in a partnership with the PRH-40 Human Resources Program, the FAPESP Shell Research Centre for Gas Innovation (RCGI), and Bandeirantes High School, will hold the
Most of the gas emissions come from the burning of CO2; RCGI pursues technologies for pre-salt that can help avoid GHG emissions. Natural gas consumption has been growing worldwide, in both developed and underdeveloped countries, with the latter having natural
Biodigesters, hydrogen-powered car, and substituting diesel in trucks of the mining industry are subjects under consideration for the next projects. At the opening of the II Internal RCGI Workshop: Results of July to December 2016, the Academic Director of Research
The combustion process uses oxygen instead of air and prevents the emission of nitrogen oxides; the CO2 resulting from the combustion may be isolated to be stored underground. A team of engineers associated to the Research Centre for Gas Innovation
In the Research Centre for Gas Innovation (RCGI), scientists develop two innovative methods to physically separate carbon dioxide (CO2) from methane (CH4). The main component of natural gas is methane. The remainder is composed of other hydrocarbons – such as
