When methane hydrates are “melted,” or exposed to pressure and temperature conditions outside those where the formations are stable, the solid crystalline lattice turns to liquid water, and the enclosed methane molecules are released as gas.

Between five and ten percent of the water injected in these systems is lost as it travels through the pore spaces. As this happens, more water must be added, perhaps from municipal sources that have little to spare. The technology could help offset the cost of geologic carbon storage. —Barry Freifeld.

The US Department of Energy (DOE) has selected 19 projects to enhance the capability to simulate, track, and evaluate the potential risks of carbon dioxide storage in geologic formations. Researchers will develop systems for tagging CO 2 with carbon-14 at atmospheric level (1 part per trillion) and measuring the carbon-14 CO 2 levels.

Not only that, the Dauphine's engine boasted water cooling, which added complexity compared to the 1930s-technology Beetle but made it possible to have a heater that worked (the Beetle's nearly-useless heater involved a heat exchanger on the exhaust, with associated danger of carbon monoxide in the passenger compartment).

2021 was a big year for energy-related news, what with the ongoing hunt for new forms of energy storage and cleaner if not carbon-free electricity and events and research that spotlighted the weak links in our power grid. We’ll still have to do the hard work of cutting carbon emissions, but geoengineering could be a way to buy us some time.
