The...
- This $2,909,514 Cooperative Agreement award from the Advanced Research Projects Agency - Energy (ARPA-E, CFDA #81.135) supports Tufts University's project titled "Solving Ore Concentrate Reduction with New Chemistry" to revolutionize the ore-to-steel process and reduce emissions. The project aims to directly reduce iron ore concentrates using ammonia, eliminating CO2 emissions from ironmaking and reducing costs by 10-25%. As part of the project, the University of Minnesota's Natural...
Riotinto Services Inc. received a $1,605,248 cooperative agreement award from the Department of Energy's Advanced Research Projects Agency - Energy (ARPA-E) program to assess the carbon dioxide (CO2) mineralization potential of an ultramafic intrusion in support of developing innovative CO2 sequestration technologies. Through this three-year award beginning October 1, 2022 and ending September 30, 2025, Riotinto will characterize the absorption properties and model mineral formation at the Tamarack ultramafic site to evaluate its suitability for potentially trapping and storing anthropogenic CO2 emissions. ARPA-E supports high-risk, high-reward research to achieve the Department of Energy's objectives of advancing new energy technologies. This award aims to develop new approaches for mitigating CO2 through mineral carbonation, in line with ARPA-E's technology innovation mission.
