CarbFix Creating the technology for safe, long-term carbon storage in the subsurface
Coordinator: ORKUVEITA REYKJAVIKUR SF (IS)
CarbFix is a combined industrial/academic research program created to 1) increase measurably our understanding of the long-term fate of CO2 injected into the subsurface, 2) develop new technology to facility the safe and permanent of geologic carbon storage, and 3) publicise the results of this research allowing them to be applied internationally. Unique to CarbFix its running of the Hellisheidi CO2 injection pilot plant, the world’s first CO2 storage project aimed at optimizing CO2 mineral carbonation in the subsurface. This pilot plant allows CarbFix to develop, test and demonstrate to the …
About Seventh Framework Programme (2007–2013)
The Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) ran from 2007 to 2013 and was the EU's main research-funding instrument of that period. It mobilised roughly €50 billion across cooperation projects, ERC frontier grants, Marie Curie fellowships, capacity-building actions and Euratom research. FP7 closed to new calls in 2013 but its projects continued for years after under their original grant agreements.
EU contribution: €1.6M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 3 years from 2011-10-01 to 2014-09-30.
