Funds set to develop ‘carbon capture’ at Gerald Gentleman

By Associated Engineering Press

The Gerald Gentleman power station near Sutherland will receive $2.7 million to plan a facility that will capture carbon dioxide instead of emitting it into the air. The funds will come from the U.S. Department of Energy … NPPD partnered with ION on the initial phase of that project, along with the University of North Dakota Energy and Environmental Research Center and the University of Alabama Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering, Becker said.
