CSIRO’s gas separation program provides gases such as syngas, hydrogen and methane at competitive costs. Applications include combustion, direct conversion to electricity in fuel cells and providing a starting point for liquid fuels production.
The Energy Transformed National Research Flagship is conducting an integrated program of research directed at assessing the viability of the long-term storage of CO2 in coal seams.
The demand for natural gas is growing and Australia’s large reserves generate research and development challenges that CSIRO is helping to meet with expertise in gas processing, conversion and a research base geared to meet the evolving needs of the methane economy.
