PNNL is part of a joint U.S.-Chinese team embarking on projects in three separate research areas to accelerate the development and deployment of coal conversion, emissions capture and carbon storage technologies.
The emission of the greenhouse gases methane and nitrous oxide has been structurally underestimated, as a result of the measuring methods used. This is the conclusion of the scientist Petra Kroon, who carried out research for the Energy research Centre of the Netherlands (ECN) and Delft University of Technology (TU Delft, The Netherlands) into an innovative method for measuring the emission of these gases.
Excess greenhouse gas be gone! Two Cornell University professors will brief Congressional staff on carbon sequestration and how it can enhance Earth’s environment, on Tuesday, July 13, 2010 at 10 a.m., at 2325 Rayburn House Office Building, Washington, D.C.
The approach the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) uses to estimate greenhouse gas emissions from agricultural anaerobic lagoons that treat manure contains errors and may underestimate methane emissions by up to 65%, according to scientists from the University of Missouri.
National Science Foundation awarded a Phase I SBIR grant in the amount of $147,095 to GoNano Technologies, Inc., a Moscow, Idaho-based nanotechnology company specializing in the development of high surface area Nanospring™ materials, to continue developing their Carbon Capture + Recycling™ (CCR) technology.
The American Businesses for Clean Energy (ABCE) is urging the U.S. Senate to create a comprehensive energy and climate bill.
Colin Carlile, Director of ESS AB and Prof. Winfried Petry, Director of the FRMII research facility in Bavaria today signed a Memorandum of Understanding. The agreement covers technological collaboration, as well as scientific cooperation in order to prepare for the future scientific opportunities at ESS, notably within energy research, life sciences, nano technology and materials for the mitigation of climate change effects.
Current observational tools cannot account for roughly half of the heat that is believed to have built up on Earth in recent years, according to a “Perspectives” article in this week’s issue of Science. Scientists at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) warn in the new study that satellite sensors, ocean floats, and other instruments are inadequate to track this “missing” heat, which may be building up in the deep oceans or elsewhere in the climate system.
As part of the effort to strengthen research cooperation with China in the field of climate and energy technology, the Research Council of Norway will be holding a seminar on renewable energy and carbon capture and storage at the World Exhibition EXPO 2010 in Shanghai on 21 – 22 May.
The Sir Mark Oliphant Conference “Cleantech Science and Solutions – mainstream and at the edge” brings together leaders in the field from across the world who represent organisations and companies from a broad range of sectors. These include researchers, leading industrialists, end users, investors, educators, professional organisations and government. They will discuss and investigate how economically viable clean technologies will drive the world towards sustainability through increased efficiency, reduced waste and the adoption of renewable energy.
