Abstract: A system for waste gas sequestration in a geological formation comprises a wellbore within the geological formation, a microbubble/nanobubble generator configured to inject gaseous microbubbles of the waste gas, gaseous nanobubbles of waste gas, or both into an aqueous stream, and an injection well casing disposed within the wellbore and in fluid communication with the microbubble/nanobubble generator, wherein the injection well casing defines an open-ended passage for delivering the aqueous stream comprising the injected microbubbles and/or nanobubbles of the waste gas into the geological rock formation.

Abstract: Methods and systems for gas separation of syngas applying differences in water solubilities of syngas components, the method including producing a product gas comprising hydrogen and carbon dioxide from a hydrocarbon fuel source; separating hydrogen from the product gas to create a hydrogen product stream and a byproduct stream by solubilizing components in water that are more soluble in water than hydrogen; injecting the byproduct stream into a reservoir containing mafic rock; and allowing components of the byproduct stream to react in situ with components of the mafic rock to precipitate and store components of the byproduct stream in the reservoir.

Abstract: A method for capturing carbon dioxide includes contacting a carbon dioxide lean gas mixture with water. One or more acid gas impurities may pass from the carbon dioxide lean gas mixture to the water to form a gas mixture and an aqueous effluent. The gas mixture is passed to a pressure swing adsorption system or a temperature swing adsorption system to increase a concentration of carbon dioxide in the gas mixture to form a carbon dioxide enriched gas mixture. The carbon dioxide enriched gas mixture is contacted with the aqueous effluent in a carbon dioxide scrubber. Carbon dioxide passes from the carbon dioxide enriched gas mixture to the aqueous effluent to form a stripped gas and acid gas enriched water. The acid gas enriched water is passed to a reactive rock formation. The one or more acid gas impurities and carbon dioxide are mineralized and permanently sequestered.

Abstract: Methods and systems for producing hydrogen substantially without greenhouse gas emissions, one method including producing a product gas comprising hydrogen and carbon dioxide from a hydrocarbon fuel source; separating hydrogen from the product gas to create a hydrogen product stream and a byproduct stream; injecting the byproduct stream into a reservoir containing mafic rock; and allowing components of the byproduct stream to react in situ with components of the mafic rock to precipitate and store components of the byproduct stream in the reservoir.

Abstract: A device to prevent the clay liner erosion of drilling site reserved water and mud waste pits by dissipating the energy of fluid(s) discharged to those pits. An economic and reusable device to prevent the erosion of the compacted clay (marl) layer of water reserve and drilling fluid waste pits at onshore drill sites by dissipating the energy of the fluids and/or solids discharged into the pits. The device consists of an approximately several square meters of rectangular lining that can be manufactured from synthetics, composite, or metal which is securely anchored under the fluid discharge pipes so that it safely dissipates the energy of the fluids/solids discharged into the pit thus preventing the underlying clay (marl) liner erosion and hence water loss or contamination of the underlying soil and shallow groundwater.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses for using irradiated tertiary treated sewage effluent (TTSE) for use in upstream and downstream well operations are disclosed. In some implementations, the TTSE is treated with ionizing radiation, such as gamma rays or electron beam radiation, in order to sterilize the TTSE. The sterilized TTSE is utilized in a well treatment operation, such as drilling operations, completion operations, pressure maintenance operations, and hydraulic fracturing operations. Sterilization of the TTSE prior to introduction into a well prevents damage to the well, such as fouling of a reservoir or reduction in permeability of the reservoir or both.
