Minneapolis-based Xcel Energy will work with Idaho National Laboratory to demonstrate a system that uses a nuclear plant’s steam and electricity to split water. —Richard Boardman, national technical lead for the DOE Light Water Reactor Sustainability Program’s Flexible Plant Operations and Generation Pathway. Earlier post.)
The only tailpipe output is clean water vapor. CCI is a statewide initiative that puts billions of Cap-and-Trade dollars to work reducing greenhouse gas emissions, strengthening the economy, and improving public health and the environment, particularly in disadvantaged communities, low-income communities, and low-income households.
The US Department of Transportation (DOT) is awarding $100 million in Economic Recovery Act funding to 43 transit agencies for projects to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions from both vehicles and facilities. Minneapolis-St. The proposed replacement vehicles include small gas/electric hybrid buses.
At the 2011 Algae Biomass Summit in Minneapolis, Dr. Michael Matturro, Corporate Programs Laboratory Director for ExxonMobil, provided a brief overview of the scope of the work and described some preliminary results from a comprehensive lifecycle analysis of different algal biofuel production pathways being done by the two partners along with MIT.
The goal of the study was to understand how various technology options affect life-cycle greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) and on-site freshwater consumption and to develop principles that can guide R&D to enable the production of algal biofuels with low GHG and freshwater consumption. Contribution by stage shown in the inset charts.
Power plants that capture CO 2 today use an older technology whereby flue gases are bubbled through organic amines in water, where the carbon dioxide binds to amines. The liquid is then heated to 120-150 degrees Celsius (250-300 degrees Fahrenheit) to release the gas, after which the liquids are reused. We got lucky.
Water pressure in the deep sea makes human exploration of the ocean difficult. General Mills , in Minneapolis, secured the contract with a bid of US $498,500, according to the Eos article. A specially designed insulated box ensured that collected samples weren’t ruined by changes in water temperature or pressure, according to Dudley.
He also contributed to algorithms enabling autonomous undersea vehicles to inspect offshore oil and gas platforms after hurricanes so that divers don’t have to. Indago flies above structures engulfed in flames and maps out the hot zones, on which K-Max then drops flame retardant or water. They didn’t remain mysterious for long.
Palo Alto’s government has set a very aggressive Sustainability and Climate Action Plan with a goal of reducing its greenhouse gas emissions to 80 percent below the 1990 level by the year 2030. Converting a gas appliance to a heat pump, for example, would draw 4 to 6 kW, while an L2 charger for EVs would be 12 to 14 kW.
