Greenpeace USA climbers form a blockade on the Fred Hartman Bridge in Baytown, Texas shutting down the largest fossil fuel thoroughfare in the United States ahead of the third Democratic primary debate in nearby Houston. The climbers are preventing the transport of all oil and gas through the Houston Ship Channel, home to the largest petrochemical complex in the United States. Their action is a call to the country’s present and future leaders to imagine a world beyond fossil fuels and embrace a just transition to renewable energy. Photo by Greg Baldwin

Greta Thunberg speaks to the audience at the climate strike. People across the U.S. left their homes, workplaces, and schools for a youth-led Global Climate Strike. They marched and rallied to demand transformative action to address the climate crisis, and called on leaders to choose to side with young people, not fossil fuel executives polluting the planet for profit.
The September 20-27 global week of action is the beginning of a reckoning for the fossil fuel industry that will launch a growing movement of millions of people through the 2020 election toward a more just, green, and peaceful future for all.

When existing fossil fuel boilers reach the end of their useful lives they can be replaced with biomass heat systems. Almost 20 facilities across the state have installed biomass heating systems in order to cut heating costs and support local renewable energy production.
Novel Platinum/Chromium Alloy for the Manufacture of Improved Coronary Stents
2011 FLC Excellence in Technology Transfer Award
A coronary stent is a small, self-expanding metal mesh tube that saves thousands of lives every year by opening blocked arteries and allowing blood to flow freely again. Jointly developed by NETL and Boston Scientific Corporation, Inc., (BSCI) this novel alloy is the first austenitic stainless steel formulation to be produced for the coronary stent industry, with a significant concentration of an element, platinum, with high radiopacity—high visibility with x-ray scanning. Better visibility means greater ease and precision in placement of the stent inside the patient’s blood vessel. In addition, the greater yield strength of the alloy allowed the stent’s designers at BSCI to make a thinner, more flexible stent that is more easily threaded through the winding path of the artery without doing damage along the way which has allowed to be deployed much smaller vessels in and around the heart.
Since introduction in 2010, the platinum/chromium coronary stent series, which includes the PROMUS® Element™, ION™, and OMEGA™ Stent Systems, has become the leading stent platform in the world. Total sales since introduction have exceeded $4 billion. BSCI now has a 45 percent share of the market in the U.S. and a 33 percent global share of the coronary stent market using the platinum/chromium (PtCr) alloy.
A newly-developed stent that incorporates this alloy has received approval in Europe for use in treating critical limb ischemia, a severe obstruction of arteries within the extremities, which reduces blood flow and can damage tissues. Restoring and maintaining peripheral blood flow in these patients is critical for proper tissue repair and reduces the risk of amputation. This alloy will be used in making all of BSCI’s future coronary stents, both bare and drug-eluting according to BSCI personnel, making this product hugely successful.
In 2011, the new alloy captured two prestigious awards: an R&D 100 Award, given by R&D Magazine to recognize the 100 most technologically significant products entering the marketplace each year, and a technology transfer award for “Outstanding Commercialization Success” from the Federal Laboratory Consortium for Technology Transfer. On October 4, 2012, the NETL team who developed this alloy received the highest honor of all, the U.S. Secretary of Energy’s Achievement Award.
On July 2, 2014 workers with heavy equipment use a thermal desorption process in what was formerly Steven Jensen's wheat field near Tioga, North Dakota. A Tesoro Logistics LP pipeline spilled more than 20,000 barrels of crude oil into the field in September of 2013. The six-inch pipeline was carrying crude oil from the Bakken shale play to the Stampede rail facility outside Columbus, North Dakota. Thermal desorption involves excavating soil or other contaminated material for treatment in a thermal desorber. To prepare the soil for treatment, large rocks or debris first must be removed or crushed. The smaller particle size allows heat to more easily and evenly separate contaminants from the solid material. The prepared soil is placed in the thermal desorber to be heated. Low-temperature thermal desorption is used to heat the solid material to 200-600ºF to treat VOCs. If SVOCs are present, then high-temperature thermal desorption is used to heat the soil to 600-1000ºF.
Gas collection equipment captures the contaminated vapors. Vapors often require further treatment, such as removing dust particles. The remaining organic vapors are usually destroyed using a thermal oxidizer, which heats the vapors to temperatures high enough to convert them to carbon dioxide and water vapor. At some sites with high concentrations of organic vapors, the vapors may be cooled and condensed to change them back to a liquid form. The liquid chemicals may be recycled for reuse, or treated by incineration. If the concentrations of contaminants are low enough, and dust is not a problem, the vapors may be released without treatment to the atmosphere. Often, treated soil can be used to fill in the excavation at the site. If the treated soil contains contaminants that do not evaporate, such as most metals, they may be disposed of and capped onsite, or transported offsite to an appropriate landfill. Photo by Les Stone

Washington DC, November 15 2016. A diverse crowd of around three thousand fired up activists variously affiliated with over a hundred different groups gathered in front of offices occupied by the Army Corps Of Engineers (and other agencies including the GAO...) for a rally and march to protect the midwestern plains water and land that rightfully belongs in perpetuity to Native American people. A core group of speakers travelled here from the Dakotas to lead the action. There is some slim hope that President Obama can be persuaded in the waning days of his presidency to refuse 'right of way' on Federal lands for the Dakota Access Pipeline. There was a sad, poignant vibe to the event because the DAPL poisonous snake will almost certainly be 'fast tracked' by the incoming Trump administration. President Elect Donald J. Trump is an investor in the pipeline. The company largely responsible for the pipeline project is headed by a very rich Texan folk music enthusiast/opportunist/OK guitar player who seems to have little understanding of what most folk musicians are trying to express.

Greenpeace Climate Liability Campaigner Ages said: “The Senators voting to confirm Rex Tillerson have clearly left their spines at home. Instead of standing up to a historically unpopular President, they're letting Trump hand the State department over to the oil and gas industry."

Activists from Coal Action, London Mining Network & Friends of the Earth gathered outside the Dept of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy to call on the government to honour its commitment to phasing out coal for power generation. Action by the government so far has been too slow and contains too many loopholes, including subsidies for coal-fired power stations. In a graphic display of the excess deaths from air pollution caused by continued burning of coal, they lay 2,900 clay figures outside the government office.

Immersion Autoclave
NETL researcher Dr. Burt Thomas
B26-105
The High Pressure Immersion and Reactive Transport Laboratory is a multi-functional, state-of-the-art facility capable of performing geological studies at simulated depths up to 10,000 feet, providing an experimental basis for modeling of various subsurface phenomena and processes. Research is aimed at monitoring the long-term storage stability and integrity of CO2 stored in geologic formations to better simulate conditions found in potential geologic storage sites. The laboratory has a wide range of tools and instrumentation to ensure a complete cycle of scientific studies from preparation of representative samples, through the preliminary measurements of basic properties, to the advanced investigation of the processes of interest under simulated subsurface conditions. The Autoclave Test Facility uses continuously-stirred autoclave reactors to conduct experiments at high pressures and temperatures to investigate gas/liquid and gas/slurry interactions. The Geological Storage Core Flow Facility includes three flow-through test systems that can measure permeability, CO2-enhanced oil recovery, and CO2.
