Low Temperature Deposition of Metal Oxide Thin Films in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide using Metal-organic Precursors

A novel chemical route in thin film formation that includes the use of inorganic and organic peroxides and metal organic complexes soluble in supercritical carbon dioxide has been investigated for the deposition of alumina, titania and zirconia thin films at low temperatures (<150°C). The metal organic precursors used include: Al(acac)3, OTi(tmhd)2, and Zr(acac)4. Tert-butyl peroxide, and a 30%...

Carbon dioxide capture and geological storage.

Carbon dioxide capture and geological storage is a technology that could be used to reduce carbon dioxide emissions to the atmosphere from large industrial installations such as fossil fuel-fired power stations by 80-90%. It involves the capture of carbon dioxide at a large industrial plant, its transport to a geological storage site and its long-term isolation in a geological storage reservoir...

Design of carbon dioxide storage in aquifers

We propose a carbon storage strategy where CO2 and brine are injected into an aquifer together followed by brine injection alone. This renders 80–95% of the CO2 immobile in porescale (10 s mm) droplets in the porous rock. Over thousands to billions of years the CO2 may dissolve or precipitate as carbonate, but it will not migrate upwards and so is effectively sequestered. The CO2 is trapped dur...

Storage of carbon dioxide in offshore sediments.

The battle to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and prevent the most dangerous consequences of climate change will be waged across multiple fronts, including efforts to increase energy efficiency; efforts to deploy nonfossil fuel sources, including renewable and nuclear energy; and investment in adaptation to reduce the impacts of the climate change that will occur regardless of the actions we ta...
