Optimization of capillary trapping of CO2 sequestration in saline aquifers, Optimization of capillary trapping of CO₂ sequestration in saline aquifers

Creator:

Harper, Elizabeth J.

Abstract:

Geological carbon sequestration, as a method of atmospheric greenhouse gas reduction, is at the technological forefront of the climate change movement. During sequestration, carbon dioxide (CO₂) gas effluent is captured from coal fired power plants and is injected into a storage saline aquifer or depleted oil reservoir. In an effort...

Evaluation of transgenes for stress tolerance, lignin modification, and growth enhancement in poplar

Creator:

Elias, Ani Anna

Abstract:

We evaluated genes previously identified from a large scale functional genomics screen for their potential value to help enhance carbon sequestration in planted trees. We used poplar as a model tree species because of its abundant genetic variation, ease of gene transfer, and availability of large databases for genomic, anatomical,...
