RECS Day 8 - Natural and Industrial Analogues and CO2 Capture
June 13th - Wrapping up the final lecture on geologic carbon storage, Travis McLing, Sequestration Technical Lead from Idaho National Laboratory (below) discussed the importance of natural analogues (i.e. oil, gas and CO2 reservoirs) and industrial analogues (i.e. natural gas storage, CO2 enhanced oil recovery) to improving our understanding of engineered storage systems.

The program switched gears to focus on CO2 capture technologies from ARPA-E’s Dr. Mark Hartley and Alstom’s Dr. Barath Baburao. RECS alumni Dr. Pradeep Indrakanti (RECS 2009) from Leonardo Technologies, Inc. covered a methodology to compare post-combustion capture technologies and Miriam Okun from Columbia University (RECS 2009) gave an overview of CO2 capture from air.
