Multi-element geochemical mapping in Southern China
Abstract The 76-element Geochemical Mapping (76 GEM) Project was undertaken in southwestern China in 2000 and in southeastern China in 2008. In this project, 5244 composite samples of stream sediment at a density of one composite sample for each...

Energy Consumption and Carbon Emissions: Analysis and Prediction-The Case of Hebei Province in China
Abstract From the time of reform and opening up, China's rapid economic growth attracts worldwide attention, which also brings the accompanying problems that high energy consumption, high pollution and high emission are more prominent. Therefore,...

Implementation of horizontal well CBM/ECBM technology and the assessment of effective CO2 storage capacity in a Scottish coalfield
Abstract In this study the theoretical and effective methane recovery and CO2 storage potential of four coal seams within a well characterised section of a CBM license in Scotland are estimated, considering different horizontal well patterns, the...

Study on the Environmental Cost-sharing Method for Reverse Logistics in Household Appliances
Abstract The strong need is therefore induced for an environmental cost -sharing methodology is an importance of the topic of reverse logistics has increased gradually over the past few years. Because of network effects, most of the environmental...

Field-case simulation of CO2 -plume migration using vertical-equilibrium models
Abstract When injected in deep saline aquifers, CO2 moves radially away from the injection well and progressively higher in the formation because of buoyancy forces. Analyzes have shown that after the injection period, CO2 will potentially migrate...

Second Generation CO2 FEP Analysis: CASSIF - Carbon Storage Scenario Identification Framework
Abstract Carbon dioxide Capture and Storage (CCS) is a promising contribution to reduce further increase of atmospheric CO2 emissions from fossil fuels. The CCS concept anticipates that large amounts of CO2 are going to be stored in the subsurface...

Characteristic of adsorption, desorption and oxidation of Cr (III) on birnessite
Abstract Behavior of adsorption, desorption and oxidation of Cr(III) on birnessite was studied in this paper. The results showed that the total adsorption amount of Cr(III) increased with increasing the amount of Cr(III) added, and the adsorption...

Quantifying the potential exposure hazard due to energetic releases of CO2 from a failed sequestration well
Abstract Wells are designed to bring fluids from depth to the earth’s surface quickly. As such they are the most likely pathway for CO2 to return to the surface in large quantities and present a hazard without adequate management. We surveyed oil...

Coupled hydromechanical modeling to study the integrity and safety of geological storage of CO2
Abstract The present study provides a set of numerical tools for modeling the geomechanical aspects related to the safety of geological CO2 storage, namely, caprock damage and fault reactivitation due to reservoir pressure rise. Large scale finite...

Reactive transport of CO2 in saline aquifers with implicit geomechanical analysis
Abstract Geological storage of CO2 in saline aquifers is a promising way to reduce the concentration of the greenhouse gas in the atmosphere. Injection of CO2 will, however, lead to dissolution of minerals in regions of lowered pH and precipitation...

The Alberta Carbon Trunk Line (ACTL)
Abstract The province of Alberta is endowed with the second largest oil reserves in the world behind Saudi Arabia in the form of bitumen in oil sands, with established bitumen reserves of 27.0 109 m3 extracted from initial bitumen in place of 286.6...

A case for deep-ocean CO2 sequestration
Abstract Carbon sequestration (CO2 disposal) may be only a temporary measure for bridging from the current situation in which carbon emissions to the atmosphere are unacceptably high and increasing, to a carbon-free economy, but it is a practical...
