Carbon Sequestration

Carbon sequestration is the term describing processes that remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. To help mitigate global warming, a variety of means of artificially capturing and storing carbon (while releasing oxygen) — as well as of enhancing natural sequestration processes — are being explored. Currently, capture of carbon dioxide is performed on a large scale by absorption of carbon dioxide onto various amine-based solvents. Other techniques are currently being investigated, such as pressure swing adsorption temperature swing adsorption, gas separation membranes, and cryogenics.

Featured model

STOMP (Subsurface Transport over Multiple Phases) is a computer model, designed to be a general-purpose tool for simulating subsurface flow and transport, which complements other analytical capabilities developed by Pacific Northwest National Laboratory's Hydrology Group. The simulator was specifically designed to provide scientists and engineers from varied disciplines with multidimensional analysis capabilities for modeling subsurface flow and transport phenomena.
