Canadian experience in low carbon eco-city development and the implications for China
Abstract Canada is a sparsely populated country with its majority of population concentrated in cities, and its urbanization rate had risen to 80.2% by 2006. A similar environmental situation (air and water pollution, biodiversity degradation, high...

TOUGHREACT modeling of the fate of CO2 injected into a H2S containing saline aquifer: The example of the Wabamum Area Sequestration Project (WASP)
Abstract The Devonian Nisku formation in central Alberta is potentially a suitable aquifer for CO2 sequestration. As with many Devonian aged aquifers in the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin, it contains H2S from thermochemical sulfate reduction. In...

Predictions of long-term behavior of a large-volume pilot test for CO2 geological storage in a saline formation in the Central Valley, California
Abstract The long-term behavior of a CO2 plume injected into a deep saline formation is investigated, focusing on mechanisms that lead to plume stabilization. Key measures are plume migration distance and the time evolution of CO2...

The effect of CO2 on the mechanical properties of reservoir and cap rock
Abstract We have investigated the effect of CO2 on the mechanical stability of the reservoir-caprock system. Castlegate and Bentheimer sandstones were used as analogues for reservoir rock. Pierre shale was utilized as an analogue material for a...

A framework to add incentives for managements after CO2 injections
Abstract Carbon capture and storage (CCS) has an issue in the managements after CO2 injection into geological formations, while CCS is expected to contribute large emission reductions in terms of cost-effectiveness. The incentives to conduct CO2...

Experimental investigation on a double-slope solar still with partially cooled condenser in the region of Ouargla (Algeria).
Abstract The population of Algeria is expected to double in the next thirty years, by then it will clearly face serious water shortages. The demand in water for drinking, agriculture and industry largely exceeds the amount that fresh sources can...

Latest time-lapse seismic data from Sleipner yield new insights into CO2 plume development
Abstract Since its inception in 1996, the CO2 injection operation at Sleipner has been monitored by 3D time-lapse seismic surveys. Striking images of the CO2 plume have been obtained, showing a multi-tier feature of high reflectivity, interpreted as ...

Measurements of Non-Wetting Phase Trapping Applied to Carbon Dioxide Storage
Abstract We measure the trapped non-wetting phase saturation as a function of the initial saturation in sand packs. The application of the work is for carbon dioxide (CO2) storage in aquifers where capillary trapping is a rapid and effective...
