Advancements in Underground Carbon Storage
Energy & Fuels Chemistry Division
Advancements in underground carbon storage are critical for achieving global climate goals by enabling the long-term, large-scale sequestration of carbon dioxide. By utilizing geological formations and enhanced techniques such as carbon geostorage and mineralization, these solutions offer a pathway to mitigate emissions from hard-to-abate sectors while supporting sustainable development. This symposium aims to foster inclusivity, accelerates knowledge sharing, and creates opportunities for joint research, enabling participants to collectively contribute toward advancing critical solutions like underground carbon storage.听

What are Flash presentations?
They are brief, impactful, and convey information about a novel protocol, perspective, technique, or research results. For instance, one Flash Talk may describe an innovative interdisciplinary research outcome. Another may describe results for a pilot/prototype study.
-
Can I submit an abstract if I'm not an early career researcher?
This symposium focuses on early career researchers, but all researchers are welcome to attend. However, the format of the presentation will be 8 minutes flash talk.
-
What is the submission deadline for abstracts?
The submission deadline for abstracts is March 31, 11:59 PM ET.
-
What is the required format for abstracts?
