Journal ArticleDOI
Lifetime of carbon capture and storage as a climate-change mitigation technology
TL;DR: It is shown that in the United States, if CO2 production from power generation continues to rise at recent rates, then CCS can store enough CO2 to stabilize emissions at current levels for at least 100 y, suggesting that the large-scale implementation of CCS is a geologically viable climate-change mitigation option in theUnited States over the next century.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Footprint of the CO2 Plume during Carbon Dioxide Storage in Saline Aquifers: Storage Efficiency for Capillary Trapping at the Basin Scale
TL;DR: In this article, a sharp-interface mathematical model of CO2 migration in deep saline aquifers, which accounts for gravity override, capillary trapping, natural groundwater flow, and the shape of the plume during the injection period, is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
CO2 migration in saline aquifers. Part 1. Capillary trapping under slope and groundwater flow
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a complete solution to a theoretical model for the subsurface migration of a plume of CO2 due to natural groundwater flow and aquifer slope, and subject to residual trapping.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stabilizing Fluid-Fluid Displacements in Porous Media Through Wettability Alteration
TL;DR: In this article, the stabilizing effect of wettability in a porous matrix during the immiscible displacement of a viscous fluid by a much less viscous one (such as water) was identified.
Journal Article
Stabilizing Fluid-Fluid Displacements in Porous Media Through Wettability Alteration
TL;DR: In this paper, a low-viscosity fluid (air) was injected into a thin bed of glass beads initially saturated with a more-volatile fluid (a water-glycerol mixture).
