DOE announces $11.5M in Phase 1 funding for carbon capture and storage program; ARPA-E FLECCS

Green Car Congress

At the conclusion of the Phase 1 period, teams will be down-selected based on an engineering design review and the projected economic impact of their Phase 1 projects on a future electricity grid. Next, the CO2-rich gas (>30% CO 2 ) from the calciner is separated to recover high-purity CO 2 , which can be stored.

Some of these real-world offspring, like the Apple Lisa computer and the Hewlett-Packard LaserJet printer, took many of their root concepts from PARC; others, like the Ada computer language and the Intel 1103 dynamic RAM chip, are less closely related. As for the future impact of PARC research—the sky’s the limit. Frame buffer.
