Biochar has high potential for long-term atmospheric carbon storage in terrestrial environments, contributing to meeting the UK and global greenhouse gas emission reduction targets. This study investigates the greenhouse gas emissions and techno-econ...

This study examines the effect of high water pressure (up to 900 bar) on hydrocarbon generation from Type-I kerogen-rich source rocks and compares the results with previously observed effects on Type-II and Type-III kerogens. An immature Type-I oil s... Read More about The effect of high pressure on hydrocarbon generation from Type-I kerogen source rocks: Implications for petroleum system evolution.
