(WorldNews Environment)

The U.S. Department of Energy`s (DOE) Office of Fossil Energy (FE) has selected five projects to receive approximately $6.4 million in federal funding for cost-shared research and development projects. These projects will develop transformational technologies for carbon dioxide (CO2) capture and purification, from lab scale through bench scale, for coal gasification facilities. The funding opportunity announcement (FOA) DE-FOA-0001830, Transformational Pre-Combustion Carbon Capture Technologies, supports these projects. DOE selected these projects as part of the Carbon Capture Program, which supports developing transformational, step-change technologies that are capable of transcending the...
