Pilot projects bury carbon dioxide in basalt

Carbon dioxide sequestration in deep-sea basalt.

Developing a method for secure sequestration of anthropogenic carbon dioxide in geological formations is one of our most pressing global scientific problems. Injection into deep-sea basalt formations provides unique and significant advantages over other potential geological storage options, including (i) vast reservoir capacities sufficient to accommodate centuries-long U.S. production of fossi...

A Numerical Model to Investigate Optimum Liquid Carbon Dioxide Seeding Rate in Weather Modification Projects

Multi-objective optimization of time-cost-quality-carbon dioxide emission-plan robustness in construction projects

Today, the construction industry is facing intense competition and success in this competition depends on several factors. Project managers try to minimize project time and cost, carbon dioxide emission and at the same time maximizing the quality of project and its plan robustness. In this paper, study construction project scheduling considering a discrete trade-off between time, cost, quality,...

Reducing Carbon Dioxide Emissions through Joint Implementation of Projects

Using carbon dioxide emissions as a criterion to award road construction projects: a pilot case in Flanders

In the last decade, innovative technologies with regard to improved energy and material efficiency of asphalt pavement construction have been implemented by road industries. Two technologies are currently advocated: warm mix asphalt technologies and the increased use of reclaimed asphalt pavement. Unfortunately, these technologies were evaluated only by their technical and economic benefits and...
