The University of Edinburgh team will use mineral analysis techniques and a novel CO2 fingerprinting tool.
A team of scientists have set out to develop new ways to measure the capture of carbon dioxide in volcanic rock.
The scientists will work with Icelandic mineralisation operator Carbfix to test new methods to track the carbon dioxide being captured at Hellisheidi, Iceland’s largest geothermal power plant, and verify its safe and permanent storage. “We will also develop our understanding of the reactivity of basalt and other volcanic rock, to understand the potential of mineralisation in other parts of the world, such as Scotland.”
