PNNL researchers have been exploring how to inject CO2 into basalts. Pictured are basalt cliffs at Wallula Gap in Washington, which is an ideal location for studying carbon capture.
Chosen as one of 16 projects across 12 states, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory's "Re-Mining Red Mud Waste for CO2 Capture and Storage and Critical Element Recovery" (RMCCS-CER) project will receive $1 million in funding to advance a technology that may kill two birds with one stone in the race for critical materials.
Announced in November, as part of the U.S. Department of Energy's Advanc...
