Impacts of atmospheric pollution on climate change – laboratory studies
Abstract Through many interactions, the composition and chemistry of the atmosphere are inherently connected to the climate system since atmospheric pollutants initiate chemical reactions affecting the climatically important compounds such as...

Injection of supercritical CO2 in brine saturated sandstone: Pattern formation during salt precipitation
Abstract In the present paper we report on the consequences of formation dry-out due to the injection of dry or under-saturated supercritical CO2 into geological formations. The reported findings are relevant for CO2 sequestration and acid-gas...

Reservoir simulation study of CO2 storage and CO2 -EGR in the Atzbach–Schwanenstadt gas field in Austria
Abstract The Atzbach–Schwanenstadt gas field has been investigated in the CASTOR project with respect to its suitability for safe, long-term underground CO2 storage. Storage capacity of the reservoir has been estimated to 14.5...

Experimental Investigation of the Performance of Evacuated-Tube Solar Collectors under Eastern Mediterranean Climatic Conditions
Abstract Experimental investigation of the overall performance of solar collectors under local weather conditions as encountered along the eastern coast of the Mediterranean Sea is carried out for two kinds of evacuatedtube solar collectors, namely, ...

Deployment of CCS Technologies across the Load Curve for a Competitive Electricity Market as a Function of CO2 Emissions Permit Prices
Abstract Consistent with other published studies, the modelling presented here reveals that baseload power plants are the first aspects of the electricity sector to decarbonize and are essentially decarbonized once CO2 permit prices exceed a certain ...

Transient changes in shallow groundwater chemistry during the MSU ZERT CO2 injection experiment
Abstract Food-grade CO2 was injected into a shallow aquifer through a perforated pipe placed horizontally 1–2 m below the water table at the Montana State University Zero Emission Research and Technology (MSU-ZERT) field site at Bozeman, Montana....

Barriers and consequence analysis for subsurface containment in Barendrecht CO2 storage
Abstract The onshore Barendrecht CO2 storage project in the densely populated West of the Netherlands is designed to prevent CO2 to migrate out of the deep underground through geological formations and outside of wells. Achieving maximum safe...

Permeability and injectivity improvement in CO2 enhanced coalbed methane recovery: Thermal stimulation of the near wellbore region
Abstract Loss of injectivity in the near wellbore region of coalbeds during CO2 injection is a limiting factor for its exploitation as potential reservoir for geological storage of CO2. Current research investigated the potential of thermal...

A coupled reservoir-geomechanical simulation study of CO2 storage in a nearly depleted natural gas reservoir
Abstract Atzbach–Schwanenstadt natural gas field located in Upper Austria Molasse Foreland basin was one of the four European sites selected for subsurface CO2 storage feasibility/performance evaluation in the recently completed EU-funded research...
