Join us at the 13th Trondheim CCS Conference (TCCS-13) | June 16th-19th 2025 in Trondheim (Norway)

We are thrilled to announce that the AURORA project, coordinated by SINTEF, will actively participate in the upcoming 13th Trondheim CCS Conference (TCCS-13), scheduled from June 16 to 19, 2025, in Trondheim, Norway. 

AURORA’s Contribution

AURORA’s consortium has submitted five abstracts, with four accepted, each highlighting significant advancements in carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) technologies. These submissions underscore our commitment to accelerating the deployment of integrated CCUS solutions and contributing to global efforts in mitigating climate change.

We look forward to engaging with fellow experts, sharing our findings, and exploring collaborative opportunities to drive innovation in the field of carbon capture and storage.

Here’s a look at our accepted contributions:

•  Pilot tests for qualification of the CESAR1 solvent for flexible operation, by Hanne M. Kvamsdal, Thor Mejdell, Asmira Delic, Karol Michalski, Actor Chikukwa, and Lars Hovdahl.
  • To be presented by Hanne Kvamsdal in the poster-session on Tuesday 17th (16.30-18.00).
• Reclamation chemistry of the CESAR1 solvent by Vanja Buvik, Kai Vernstad, Andreas Grimstvedt, Hanna K. Knuutila, Koteswara Rao Putta.
