A US Department of Energy (DOE) team of regional partners has begun injecting carbon dioxide into coal seams in the Central Appalachian Basin to determine the feasibility of CO 2 storage in unmineable coal seams and the potential for enhanced coalbed methane recovery. feet in thickness. trillion cubic feet.

Natural gas will play a leading role in reducing greenhouse-gas emissions over the next several decades, largely by replacing older, inefficient coal plants with highly efficient combined-cycle gas generation, according to a major new interim report out from MIT. The first two reports dealt with nuclear power (2003) and coal (2007).

Earlier, an existing coalbed methane well operated by El Paso Exploration & Production had been converted for CO 2 injection, and four wells drilled to monitor reservoir pressure, gas composition, water quality, and the CO 2 plume. Coal in the Black Warrior Basin has the potential to sequester 1.1 gigatons to 2.3

Otherwise you’ll just be buying a dinosaur that you’ll have to pay to convert or dispose of. Meanwhile the plug-in EV RAV-4s they made in 1997-2003 are still working just fine - the ones they didn’t crush and actually allowed people to buy.

The NETL developed refractory was jointly researched with Harbison-Walker Refractories Company of Pittsburgh, PA; patented in 2003; and transferred via license to Harbison-Walker Refractories Co. The NETL refractory (right) has approximately 50% more material remaining after the test. Click to enlarge.

Plug-In Hybrids Are Cleaner (Even on a Coal Grid) [ to top ] This entire section is finally obsolete -- because we now have a definitive study by the Electric Power Research Institute and the Natural Resources Defense Council. Three more points: Both reports match up well with previous studies. The GREET 1.6

Reply ↓ ↑ report 6 CaramelZappa 3:20AM (4/23/2009) Yea, you COULD convert a lotus for $10k but the conversion wouldnt be terribly satisfying. Well, the cheapest source is from steam reformed fossil fuels, and that process produces CO2, especially when that fossil fuel is coal. It takes 3x more electricity going the H2 route!
