Kemmerer Decarbonization Works plans to supply low-carbon intensity ammonia to customers in the agriculture, energy, and/or other end market(s) for a sustainable future. The KDW facility is planned to be constructed at the site of the Kemmerer Mine, located in Kemmerer, Wyoming, and would repurpose Wyoming coal. Kemmerer Decarbonization Works plans to combine four processes to… Continue reading Kemmerer Decarbonization Works | Blue Ammonia Project
A University of Wyoming School of Energy Resources’s pilot project tackling the large quantities of water produced by oil and gas wells by adequately treating it so it can be used for generating hydrogen. The pilot project will be deployed at Williams Echo Springs gas plant, in Wamsutter, Wyoming. Steam methane reforming is a well-established… Continue reading University of Wyoming SER | William Echo Springs H2 Pilot Project
The Triangle Unit Carbon Capture and Storage Project uses biomass as feedstock for low-carbon renewable natural gas. It uses the byproducts of sugar beet refining as feedstock injection, dilutes the byproducts unavailable for human consumption, and injects them into deep coalbed methane wells and related nonproductive natural gas infrastructure. The feedstock is naturally converted into… Continue reading Cowboy Clean Fuels | Triangle Unit Carbon Capture and Storage Project
A project that converts coal from the WyoDak mine into low-carbon hydrogen and single-stream CO2. In January 2024, Black Hills Energy and Babcock & Wilcox have been awarded $15,995,451 – in two phases of funding – for the project. With the award, BHE and B&W will complete the planning and design package for a facility… Continue reading Black Hills Energy | WyoDak Mine BrightLoop Demo
The University of Wyoming will conduct a feasibility study to develop a saline CO2 storage hub for industries in the Echo Springs area of south-central Wyoming. The feasibility study is predicted to last 2 years and it is in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Energy and Williams Companies, which operates the Echo Springs natural… Continue reading Williams Companies | Echo Springs Saline CO2 Storage Hub
The conversion of HollyFrontier’s Cheyenne Refinery to renewable diesel production. HollyFrontier intends to repurpose Cheyenne’s current footprint and a portion of its existing assets to produce approximately 90 million gallons per year of renewable diesel. HollyFrontier expects the project will be completed in the first quarter of 2022 and generate an internal rate of return… Continue reading HollyFrontier Cheyenne Renewable Diesel Project
A potential CCUS system at PacifiCorp’s Jim Bridger Units 3 and 4, in Wyoming. In 2017, as part of the Integrated CCS Pre-Feasibility phase of the CarbonSAFE Initiative, the University of Wyoming, in partnership with DOE, will perform a phase I pre-feasibility assessment for secure, commercial-scale CO2 capture and storage at the Rock Springs Uplift,… Continue reading Jim Bridger CCUS Retrofit
The Riley Ridge to Natrona Project consists of the Riley Ridge Carbon Dioxide Pipeline Project, the Bairoil to Natrona CO2 Pipeline Project, and a 230-kilovolt transmission line to supply energy to the proposed Riley Ridge Sweetening Plant. It is a 243-mile project crossing through Fremont, Sublette, Sweetwater and Natrona counties in Wyoming on federal, state… Continue reading Denbury Riley Ridge to Natrona Project CO2
