Reducing the cost of decarbonization through cutting-edge carbon capture innovation

"Reducing the cost of decarbonization through cutting-edge carbon capture innovation" with Brian Anderson, Director, National Energy Technology Laboratory, U.S. Department of Energy

Wednesday, February 19, 2020

5:15pm-6:20pm

Room 6-120 

Register

Anderson will highlight state-of-the-art carbon capture R&D and discuss crosscutting scientific and technological initiatives underway at the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Energy Technology Laboratory to meet some of the nation’s most important energy challenges—delivering reliable, low-cost, and low-carbon energy.

About the speaker:

Brian J. Anderson SM ’04 PhD ’05, is director of the National Energy Technology Laboratory of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). He is a recipient of the 2012 Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers. In 2011, the DOE recognized him with an Honor Achievement Award for his role on a team that responded to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. Anderson earned a bachelor’s degree in chemical engineering at West Virginia University and his master's and doctorate degrees in chemical engineering from MIT.

Reception with light refreshments will follow.

Please note that we will open our doors to unregistered participants 15 minutes before the event start time. To guarantee your seat, we recommend you register and arrive at least 15 minutes early.
