Reducing Australia's greenhouse gas inventory
Our researchers are developing technology with the potential to reduce mining sector emissions by up to 90 per cent, reducing Australia's total national greenhouse gas inventory by up to 3 per cent.
Check out a video of how we will be delivering outcomes of global significance for industry and the community and will be equally applicable in countries all around the world. With $30 million in Government and industry funding, this world-first research project will deliver abatement technologies that address fugitive methane emissions from underground coal mines.
