Outreach
RCCS is looking forward to make a difference in people’s lives by engaging the larger community and providing easy access to information. The important role of carbon capture, utilisation and storage in mitigating the harmful effects of climate change is shared with the community by our outreach programme.
Together with Heriot-Watt University, we are planning to provide opportunities to primary school pupils and high school students to visit our labs and get familiar with our research and technology development in this area. For high school students there is an excellent opportunity to stay in our labs for a few weeks, conducting research under supervision of our expert staff, and gaining more in depth knowledge of this exiting research area.
