Understanding Mineral Dissolution in Porous Media Coupled With Single- and Multi-phase Flo — NSF Award to Montana State University
The increasing buildup of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere contributes to a wide range of environmental, social, and economic problems. One viable way to mitigate CO2 emission is through an operation called carbon capture and sequestration (CCS). In CCS, CO2 is captured from power plants, and injected into underg

| Abstract | The increasing buildup of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere contributes to a wide range of environmental, social, and economic problems. One viable way to mitigate CO2 emission is through an operation called carbon capture and sequestration (CCS). In CCS, CO2 is captured from power plants, and injected into underground saline aquifers. However, injection of CO2 into geologic formations leads to dissolution of minerals due to the acidic nature of CO2, which can create leakage pathways and th |
