The CO2SS Project website was launched this week. CO2SS (pronounced “cots”), originally titled “Computational Methods Applied to the Selection and Suitability of Geological Carbon Storage Sites” is a research project focused on characterizing geological structures for CO2 storage. The initiative has a multidisciplinary, inter-institutional and international team and aims to use Computational Engineering to address the topic. More information on: www.co2ssproject.com.
Aimed at funding research projects around prospection and exploration of mineral resources and oil & natural gas, the CNPq Brazil CT-Petro 16/2022 Call will disburse up to R$ 10 million to boost the scientific, technological and innovation development in the country for the area. TRIL Lab submitted a project on computational methods for the energy transition focused on CO2 geological storage and was awarded with funding for facilities, lab inputs,…
Brazil appeared on the new Global CCS Institute’s Status Report 2022 as a relevant country in the Americas to lead carbon capture and storage initiatives, especially in reducing 40 Mtpa by 2025. By following our studies in this topic, from October 19 to 21, we presented the article “Analysis of injectivity functionals based on static and dynamic parameters for CO2 storage projects” at the XXV National Meeting of Computational Modeling…
This week, TRIL Lab took another important step towards its goal of being a reference in R,D&I in computational engineering after acquiring an ANSYS CFD software license. Funded by the Research Support Foundation of the State of Paraíba (FAPESQ-PB), the software will initially be applied to analyses and studies on engineering control in hospital environments. Prof. Gustavo Oliveira, coordinator of the H-CFD Brazil project, pointed that the software should boost the group’s research capacity…
Check out this article on SubSea World Brazil Magazine about TRIL Lab, where Prof. Gustavo Oliveira highlights how computational engineering and TRIL Lab’s can deliver solutions for the oil and gas sector, in the under-the-hood energy transition and digital transformation trends. The article was published in issue no. 35, on pages 26 and 27. Image: Subsea World Brazil Magazine’s cover, n. 35 Jan/Feb 2022.
TRIL Lab is a research group in computational science and engineering for a new data-centric world! We are part of the Center of Informatics, at Federal University of Paraíba.
