Abstract:Reducing carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions from the atmosphere is a critical imperative in the ongoing fight against climate change. However, salt precipitation, a critical challenge during geological CO 2 storage, adversely affects CO 2 injectivity by reducing formation permeability and porosity, thus diminishing CO 2 storage efficiency. Although salt precipitation is a formidable challenge in geological CO 2 storage, its mitigation has not received the attention needed. The main hypothesis of this study is to… Show more
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.
