Projects

Biofuels Pathways (JBEI)

  • Bioenergy

Researchers in the Biofuels Pathways Group discover naturally occurring enzymes that, when integrated with metabolic pathways for biofuel precursors (such as fatty acids), enable engineered microbes to synthesize advanced biofuels. A genome-enabled approach is used to study both pure bacterial cultures and natural microbial communities known to produce the biofuels of interest.

Brine Extraction and Storage Test (BEST)

  • Carbon Storage Program

The overall objective of the EPRI-led BEST project to be performed at the Lansing Smith electric generating station near Panama City, Florida, is to help develop cost-effective pressure control, plume management and produced water strategies that can be used to improve reservoir storage efficiency and capacity, and demonstrate safe, reliable containment of CO2 in deep geologic formations with CO2 permanence of 99% or better.

Coastal Wetland Restoration a Nature Based Decarbonization Multi-Benefit Climate Mitigation Solution

  • Carbon Removal & Mineralization Program

Nature-based solutions for climate mitigation, such as restoring wetlands, can help decrease atmospheric greenhouse gas (GHG) concentrations, slow climatic and environmental change (nature-based decarbonization solution) while providing additional ecosystem services to coastal communities. This project aims to (1) delineate the natural processes and management practices within wetlands that control C dynamics, and (2) integrate environmental…

Colloid Formation and Migration Project

The Colloid Formation and Migration (CFM) Project is an international research project for the investigation of colloid formation/bentonite erosion, colloid migration, and colloid-associated radionuclide transport, relevant to both NBS and EBS areas of UFDC. This collaborative project is one of several experimental R&D projects associated with the Grimsel Test Site (GTS) in the Swiss Alps, a URL…

Comprehensive Physical-Chemical Modeling to Reduce Risks and Costs of Flexible Geothermal Energy Production (CEC-EPIC)

  • Geothermal Systems

The Issue: The increased use of variable renewable energy (primarily wind and solar) increases the inherent variability and uncertainty in electricity demand and resource availability, and thus drives the need for operational flexibility of other renewable such as geothermal energy...
