  • Methods for Petroleum Coke Carbon Capture and Sequestration
    Publication number: 20250178046
    Abstract: A petroleum coke carbon capture and sequestration method is provided which includes processing the petroleum coke into a petroleum coke particulate, preparing a slurry including the petroleum coke particulate, and injecting the slurry into an underground area. The underground area could be a live crude oil extraction well, where it could displace crude oil, an underground storage facility, a salt formation, or the like.
    Type: Application
    Filed: February 7, 2025
    Publication date: June 5, 2025
    Applicant: Confair Carbon Capture Technologies, LLC
    Inventors: Robert Confair, Michael Smith
