The final technical report of the Integrated Midcontinent Stacked Carbon Storage Hub (IMSCS-HUB). Describes the projects tasks and results of a Phase I prefeasibility study for commercial-scale carbon storage in Nebraska and Kansas. The project focused on ethanol plants as CO2 sources in central Nebraska as a CO2 Supply and stacked-storage oilfields in southwest Nebraska and Western Kansas as storage sites. The results of the work show that the midcontinent United States is ideal for an early commercial-scale project considering the relative ease of CO2 capture from ethanol plants and the utilization of CO2 for enhanced oil recovery in combination with saline storage.
