Colorado School of Mines received a $500,000 Project Grant from the Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E, CFDA 81.135) for the SCOPE CO2 project, awarded April 1, 2026, with a completion date of March 31, 2028. This award supports the development of a novel detection system for impurities in concentrated gaseous and supercritical carbon dioxide (CO2) used in pipeline transport, storage, and utilization applications. The project addresses a critical need for safe and cost-effective CO2 management by enabling the identification and quantification of contaminants including nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulfur oxides (SOx), hydrogen sulfide (H2S), ammonia (NH3), and water (H2O). The project will deliver two primary products: (1) a CO2 impurity monitoring prototype based on differential optical absorption spectroscopy (DOAS) technology, and (2) deconvolution software for quantitative impurity determination. These deliverables will provide pipeline operators and CO2 utilization facilities with enhanced monitoring capabilities to ensure product quality and operational safety. The work aligns with ARPA-E's mission to advance high-potential energy technologies addressing climate change mitigation and energy security objectives through innovation in CO2 management infrastructure.Grant Award Summary
