Dr. Liangxiong Li is currently a Research Scientist at Petroleum Recovery Research Center (PRRC) at New Mexico Tech. His work with the SWP focuses on transport of CO2 in porous media and indication of CO2 leakage through caprock seal. He also works with terrestrial sequestration team on treating coalbed natural produced water for beneficial use at the Pump Canyon’s terrestrial carbon sequestration field demonstration site. Dr. Li is the recipient of “Langmuir Award” for 2005. His research focuses on gas and liquid transport in confined space and development of novel material and process for water purification and high temperature CO2 separation. Prior to joining the PRRC, he worked for Petro-China as a research engineer in water shutoff.
