- Alan Powell, Catena Carbon
- History and Projects of Delta Amine-Based Carbon Capture Technologies
- Walid ElMoudir, Delta CleanTech
Wednesday, October 19
A successful CCUS project has only just begun with an efficient capture system. The purity and consistency of the CO2 stream has impacts on transportation, the choice of storage sites and whether or not further value can be derived from EOR or other manufacturing based utilization technologies. Join us as we discuss pipeline considerations, how to choose between deep, shallow, depleted and saline reservoirs and what some of the emerging value added utilization technologies have to offer.
Presentation(s):
- Impurities in Injected CO2: Behaviour under Transport and Implications
- Stephen Talman, University of Alberta
- Advancing CCS Projects through De-risking Pore Space
- Richard Hares, Sproule
- A Global Solution for a Hard to Decarbonize Industry
- Liz McCaffery, Carbon Upcycling
MMV is an integrated set of tools and techniques aimed at managing risk and maintaining security in storage. With a historically technical focus on linking spatial scales of measurement with time-based methods, in both pilot and demonstration scales of deployment, what changes in our professional work as the scale of storage and number of projects increases? This session explores that question.
Presentation(s):
- Are Current Standards and Regulations Related to MMV and Risk Helping to Accelerate CCUS?
- Rick Chalaturnyk, University of Alberta
- MMV Techniques Used at the Newell County Facility & Where MMV May Be Headed
- Greg Maidment, Carbon Management Canada
