TL;DR: In this paper, a set of definitions and methodologies for the assessment of CO2 storage capacity in geological media is presented, including coal beds and deep saline aquifers, and the level of detail and resolution required in the data make reliable and accurate estimation of the storage capacity of these media practical only at the local and site-specific scales.

TL;DR: The Carbon Sequestration Leadership Forum (www.cslforum.org) as mentioned in this paper has proposed a set of guidelines for estimation of CO2 storage capacity, which will greatly assist future deliberations by government and industry on the appropriateness of geological storage in different geological settings.

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the reaction that drives Rayleigh fractionation of C 2 and C 3 involves redox reactions with transition metals and water at late stages of catagenesis at temperatures on the order of 250-300°C.

TL;DR: Detailed study of pure methane hydrate in a diamond cell with in situ optical, Raman, and x-ray microprobe techniques reveals two previously unknown structures, structure II and structure H, at high pressures.

TL;DR: In this paper, a high-pressure optical cell and fused silica capillary capsules were used to prepare pure CO 2 samples with densities between 0.0472 and 1.0060 g/cm 3.
