The resource and energy sectors are making a step change to embrace the zero-carbon or carbon-neutral future. The extraction of minerals and energy resources results in significant greenhouse gas emissions. This requires Australian industries to adopt innovative approaches to manage their carbon emissions.
We focus on developing analytical, modelling, and laboratory solutions to enable companies to reduce their environmental footprint, by reducing carbon emissions during extraction and processing of raw earth materials.
Applications include coal mine gas capture and utilisation, ventilation air methane abatement, ventilation strategies with battery electric vehicles (BEVs), clean coal technologies, and CO2 storage in abandoned mines, and unconventional deposits.
