Reactive transport modeling to study changes in water chemistry induced by CO2 injection at the Frio-I Brine Pilot

TLDR
In this paper, the Frio-I Brine Pilot was used to demonstrate the potential for geologic storage of CO 2 in saline aquifers, during which 1600 T CO 2 were injected into a high-permeability sandstone and the resulting subsurface plume of CO2 was monitored using a variety of hydrogeological, geophysical, and geochemical techniques.

Fluid flow and CO2-fluid-mineral interactions during CO2-storage in sedimentary basins

TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that the dissolution of Fe-oxide grain coatings and the release of Fe to solution is important in stabilising insoluble Fe-Mg-Ca carbonate minerals but the rate limiting step for carbonate mineral precipitation is the transport of CO2-charged brines and silicate mineral dissolution rates.
