Conference paper presented at 16th International Conference on Greenhouse Gas Control Technologies (GHGT-16), Lyon, France, October 23–27, 2022. We present an overview and initial results of the novel and sustainable monitoring techniques developed by the Energy & Environmental Research Center (EERC) and its commercial partners associated with the Red Trail Energy (RTE) carbon capture and storage (CCS) project. RTE is an investor-owned 64-million-gallon dry mill ethanol production plant in Richardton, North Dakota, USA. Currently in operation as of June 2022, the RTE facility will capture 180,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) annually (>99% CO2) that is otherwise emitted during the ethanol production process and inject it into the Broom Creek Formation, a deep saline aquifer, for permanent on-site geologic storage.
