The Midwest Geological Sequestration Consortium’s Illinois Basin-Decatur Project (IBDP) is a collaboration of the Illinois State Geological Society, the Archer Daniels Midland Company, Schlumberger Carbon Services, and other subcontractors. The project injected approximately 1 million metric tons of CO2 derived from biofuel production into a saline reservoir, the Mt. Simon Sandstone, in Decatur, Illinois. Operational… Continue reading Illinois Basin-Decatur Project
Lucid Energy’s development of a carbon capture and sequestration project at Lucid’s northern Delaware basin Red Hills natural gas processing complex in Lea County, New Mexico.
A carbon capture and storage project at an east central Illinois ethanol facility owned by One Earth Energy. One Earth Energy, which produces 150 million gallons of ethanol annually in Gibson City, has partnered with the Illinois State Geological Survey since 2020 to study whether the half-million tons of carbon dioxide gas (CO2) it generates… Continue reading One Earth Energy CCS
The integration of Southern Company subsidiary Alabama Power’s James M. Barry Electric power plant with Linde’s Gen 2 carbon capture solution based on BASF’s OASE® blue gas treatment technology. The project should capture approximately 95 percent of carbon dioxide emissions generated. The project received $5m in federal funding from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office… Continue reading James M. Barry Electric Power Plant CCUS
A potential carbon capture operation at Nebraska Public Power District’s Gerald Gentleman Station, near Sutherland. The project received funding from the U.S. Department of Energy National Energy Technology Laboratory. ION Clean Energy conducted the FEED study. ION utilizes its solvent-based CO2 capture technology, ICE-21, as the basis for the CO2 capture design. As of 2023,… Continue reading Gerald Gentleman Station Carbon Capture
The installation of of Linde-Basf Advanced Post-Combustion CO2 Capture Technology at Mississippi Power’s Plant Daniel natural gas-fired power plant. Southern Company Services collaborated with Linde Gas North America LLC to conduct a front-end engineering and design study for the installation of a commercial-scale carbon capture system based on the Linde-BASF advanced aqueous amine solvent-based carbon dioxide… Continue reading Plant Daniel Carbon Capture Project
The retrofit of Unit 2 (816 MWe) of Prairie State Generating Station’s coal-fired power station with a capture plant using Mitsubishi Heavy Industries post-combustion CO2 capture technology. The station is in Marissa, Illinois. University of Illinois, along with project partners Kiewit Corporation, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries America, Inc., and Sargent & Lundy, performed multiple feasibility and… Continue reading Prairie State Generating Station CCS Retrofit
A potential direct air capture project utilizing nuclear heat/power to capture at least 5,000 net tpa. Battelle Memorial Institute will leverage available thermal energy from Southern Company’s Joseph M. Farley nuclear power plant in Columbia, Alabama, for a DAC system developed by AirCapture LLC that will separate CO2 from ambient air for off-site geologic storage.
A carbon capture project at the natural gas-fueled 464-MW Mustang Station of Golden Spread Electric Cooperative in Denver City, Texas. The University of Texas at Austin is conducting a FEED study for carbon capture at the station.
A CO2 storage project at Blue Flint Ethanol plant near Underwood, in McLean County, North Dakota. The CO2 is stored in the Broom Creek Formation. The North Dakota Industrial Commission approved the project in May 2023. The CCS plant started injections in October 2023. The project was started by Midwest AgEnergy Group, which was sold… Continue reading Blue Flint Ethanol CCS
