Andy Chadwick of SCCS partner institute, the British Geological Survey, has been awarded the MBE in recognition of his services to the science of carbon capture and sequestration.
New research shows that captured carbon dioxide can be stored safely for thousands of years by injecting the liquefied gas deep underground into the microscopic pore spaces of common rocks.
Against a backdrop of renewed ambition for carbon capture and storage (CCS) in Scotland and the UK, scientists from Scottish Carbon Capture & Storage (SCCS) and project partners will describe their innovative research as part of European climate action to All-Energy 2018 delegates in Glasgow tomorrow.
Carbon Capture Machine (UK) Ltd, a University of Aberdeen spin-out company, is the sole European team to reach the finals of the NRG COSIA Carbon XPRIZE, a major international competition that incentivises the development of breakthrough carbon conversion technologies to reduce global CO2 emissions.
A new study by SCCS scientists suggests that the Paris Agreement’s climate targets can be met rapidly if fossil fuel producers are obliged to pay for the storage of progressively increasing amounts of carbon emissions resulting from their products.
