Review on in-situ CO2 mineralization sequestration: mechanistic understanding and research frontiers
China University of Petroleum, Beijing · Huaneng Clean Energy Research Institute
Abstract
Abstract The substantial emissions of greenhouse gases, particularly CO 2 , constitute a primary driver of global warming. CCUS is proposed as an effective mitigation strategy which is often estimated to account for about 15% of cumulative carbon emission reduction. In-situ CO 2 mineralization sequestration, compared to conventional geological storage methods such as depleted oil and gas reservoirs, unmineable coal seams, and deep saline aquifers, offers the advantage of permanent immobilization of injected carbon. However, uncertainties persist regarding the characteristics of geochemical interactions under reservoir pore conditions, as well as the kinetic mechanisms of mineralization reactions. Additionally,…
