A US Department of Energy/National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) team of regional partners has begun injecting CO 2 into a deep lignite coal seam in Burke County, North Dakota, to demonstrate the economic and environmental viability of geologic CO 2 storage in the US Great Plains region.

The initial five BEST projects, which were provided an initial $7 million in funding in September, have been working to develop engineering strategies and approaches for managing reservoir pressure and the flow of stored CO 2 in saline reservoirs. DOE: $15,483,535 Non-DOE: $5,624,000 Total Funding: $21,107,535 (26.6% cost share).

Topping the list for absolute emissions in 2010 was Texas (652.6 million tonnes CO 2 ); California (369.8 tonnes/person).

The Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnerships initiative is a government-industry effort that is determining the best approaches for capturing and storing gases that can contribute to climate change. Project outcomes may be applicable to many other sites in the PCOR Partnership region and in similar settings globally.

The project is one of two large-volume tests that the PCOR partnership is undertaking in the development phase of the DOE partnerships program, which focuses on large-volume carbon storage; the second test is planned for the Williston Basin in North Dakota.

Ultimately, some 99% of the injected CO 2 can be permanently stored (i.e. Captured CO2 will be further cleaned and compressed, and then transported by pipeline to an existing regional CO 2 pipeline or, potentially, to a nearby EOR field. Approximately 40% of the initially injected CO 2 remains trapped underground. produce urea.
