Title:
High-Reliability Cements for Enhanced Geothermal Systems
Summary:
This project will develop a new hybrid cement system that can be easily produced and installed on site during Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) well construction. The proposed project can help to meet one of the key technical needs for the commercial viability of EGS, and can result in the widespread utilization of geothermal energy, which can result in lowering of greenhouse gases while meeting our growing energy needs.

Title:
Enhanced Methane Production by Co-Gasification of Potassium-Rich Biomass and Coal
Summary:
This project will investigate enhanced methane production from the co-gasification of potassium-rich biomass and coal. The gas produced will be suitable to fire a fuel cell or to provide substitute natural gas to a pipeline. This process will reduce U.S. dependence on foreign energy sources and greenhouse gas emissions.
