... on a much larger scale. Hence, much of what must occur now for CO 2 sequestration from a risk regulatory standpoint is the identification of hazards, selection of indicators for those hazards, defining measures for those indicators, and finally, specifying appropriate limits on those measures. Conceivably...

... Abstract As part of the US DOE's Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnership program, the Midwest Geologic Sequestration Consortium has four active field demonstrations: two EOR pilots, one S/ECBM pilot, and one brine-saturated formation CO 2 injection pilot. The S/ECBM pilot injection period...

... formations with heterogeneous properties and demonstrate its application to waterflooding and geological CO 2 sequestration problems. The new method focuses on equalizing and delaying (under constant total injected volume) the breakthrough time of the injected fluid at production wells. For application...

... effects. To start with, individual component fluxes are generated by a finite difference fully implicit compositional simulator incorporating all the relevant physics of CO 2 sequestration. The fluxes are then utilized in novel streamline tracing algorithms to generate phase and component streamlines...

... reaching pH 8.3 at carbonate equilibrium. On the other hand CO 2 capture capacity of the red mud was 87 kg CO 2 (g)/m 3 . Thermogravimetric analysis of red mud (270 - 670 °C) shows less than 2% mass loss which is a good indicator of actual CO 2 sequestration. ISCPP will produce around 77000 ton CO 2 (g...

... Abstract A compositional reservoir simulation study was performed to investigate enhanced oil recovery and sequestration of carbon dioxide. Maximizing profit from oil recovery and maximizing the amount of carbon dioxide stored in the reservoir are competing goals and both will be important...

... Abstract Recent studies have estimated that oceans have naturally sequestrated, by dissolving and mixing with deep waters, about 40% of the anthropogenic CO 2 emitted since the start of the industrial revolution. Moreover, the International Maritime Organization has recently announced...

... and oil/gas reservoirs in the Middle East. CO 2 corefloods were conducted in samples from carbonate analog outcrops to simulate sequestration process, and, changes in the pore-space due to dissolution/precipitation were quantified by time lapse CTscans and measurement of relative permeabilities. Density...

... Abstract To achieve substantial national and global greenhouse gas abatement, carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) must be deployed at large scale in many locations. Individual large projects (5 million tons/y) will inject volumes on the order of 80,000-130,000 bbls/day equivalent...

... adsorbed onto the coal, allowing incremental methane to desorb and be produced. This very unique characteristic of a coal allows it to serve double-duty as both a storage reservoir and the seal. As such, geologic sequestration of carbon dioxide in deep, unmineable coal seams may hold tremendous promise...

... ABSTRACT As part of the Southwest Regional Partnership for Carbon Sequestration (SWP), the Pump Canyon CO 2 -ECBM/sequestration demonstration in New Mexico has for objectives to prove the effectiveness of CO 2 sequestration in deep, unmineable coal seams via a small-scale geologic...

... anthropogenic sources of CO 2 that provide the best opportunities for CCS include cement kilns, ethanol plants, natural gas plants, refineries, ammonia manufacturing plants and power generation (coal and natural gas). The United States Department of Energy's Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnerships (RCSPs...
