The mass-utilization of fossil resources has led to a dramatic increase in carbon dioxide (CO2) production, most of which is released directly into the Earth's atmosphere, resulting in global warming. Efforts to contain CO2 emissions and to capture, store ...
On conventional offshore petroleum platforms, the combined heat and power production (CHP) currently depends on simple cycle gas turbine systems (SCGT) that operate at lower efficiency and increased environmental impact, compared to modern onshore thermoel ...
The dynamics of methane generation and evasion from well-oxygenated, oligotrophic streams have been traditionally neglected. We estimated evasion of methane and assessed its sources and production pathways using a stable isotope approach in 16 oxygen-rich ...
There is still lack of knowledge about the aerosols physics and chemistry and consequently their impact on climate and health. The complexity of involved chemical interactions makes the characterization of these particles with experimental studies challeng ...
The primary aim of this thesis is to propose a method to develop the process synthesis and optimization of the production of syngas and ammonia, as well as other byproducts such as marketable CO2, in synthetic nitrogen fertilizers (SNF) complexes. The base ...
The main challenges associated with a growing production of renewable electricity are intermittency and dispersion. Intermittency generates spikes in production, which need to be curtailed when exceeding consumption. Dispersion means electricity has to be ...
In this short review, some recent advances are discussed in the development of computational techniques to perform large-scale screening of materials for energy-related applications. We focus on carbon capture and methane storage in different classes of na ...
A significant part of the cost for carbon capture and storage ( CCS) is related to the compression of captured CO2 to its supercritical state, at 150 bar and typically 99% purity. These stringent conditions may however not always be necessary for specific ...
Porous covalent polymers are attracting increasing interest in the fields of gas adsorption, gas separation, and catalysis due to their fertile synthetic polymer chemistry, large internal surface areas, and ultrahigh hydrothermal stabilities. While precise ...
Thermal effects are an important component in the analysis of geologic carbon storage because the injected CO2 reaches the storage formation at a lower temperature than that of the reservoir rock. The main fear is related to the possibility that the shear ...
