The paper presents an analysis of the possible location of geological formations suitable for CO2 storage in the Upper Silesia Coal Basin, Poland. The range of the reservoir has been determined on the basis of an analysis of basic geological parameters, which determine the selection criteria for sites suitable for CO2 storage. A dynamic modelling of the CO2 distribution in the aquifer is presented. Based on the constructed model of migration, reactivity, and geochemical transport of CO2 in geological structures, it is possible to identify potential migration routes and escape sites of CO2 on the surface. The analysis of the technical and geological possibilities of CO2 storage was carried out according to the regulations of the complex Polish geological law, specifically in terms of sequestration possibilities in geological formations.
Vietnam has the 13th largest hard coal reserves globally, withthe reserves totaling 2.22 billion tonnes, and estimated resources of 4.07billion tonnes. Coal use is playing an increasing role in the energy mix andaccording to current planning, this role is to increase further. In parallelwith the development of the Vietnamese coal sector, underground miningalso underwent many stages of improvements, especially in the last twodecades. This paper analyzes the achievement and the state of the miningtechnology applied into the underground mining by the Vietnam NationalCoal - Mineral Industries Holding Corporation Ltd. (VINACOMIN) during20 year period and proposes the recommendations for the sustainabledevelopment of Vietnam underground mining.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
