Caprock integrity is one of the chief concerns in the successful development of a CO$_2$ storage site. In this chapter, we provide an overview of the permeability of fractured shale, the potential for mitigation of CO$_2$ leakage by…
Dissolution of CO$_2$ in water followed by the subsequent hydrolysis reactions is of great importance to the global carbon cycle, and carbon capture and storage. Despite enormous previous studies, the reactions are still not fully…
Carbon capture and storage or utilization (CCUS) will play an important role to achieve climate neutrality in many economies. Pipelines are widely regarded as the most efficient means of CO2 transport; however, they are currently…
Deep saline aquifers are promising geological reservoirs for CO2 sequestration if they do not leak. The absence of leakage is provided by the caprock integrity. However, CO2 injection operations may change the geomechanical stresses and…
We present experimental results and theoretical simulations of the adsorption behavior of the metal-organic precursor Co2(CO)8 on SiO2 surfaces after application of two different pre-treatment steps, namely by air plasma cleaning or a…
A new mechanism for the passive removal of drop on a horizontal surface is described that does not require pre-fabrication of a surface energy gradient. The method relies upon the preparation of alternate hydrophilic/hydrophobic stripes on…
Geothermal energy is an infinite energy source for the present human society. Energy extraction from the deep subsurface requires engineering using a working fluid that circulates between well doublet. Due to its thermal properties, CO2 is…
The global commitment to achieve net-zero has led to increasing investment towards the production and usage of green hydrogen (H2).However, the massive quantity needed to match future demand will require new storage facilities. Underground…
In this work we investigate the dissociation of CO$_2$ on Cu(110) by performing density functional theory calculations using the vdW-DF2 exchange-correlation functional, with a potential energy surface parameterized using artificial neural…
Drylands forestation offers the potential for significant long-term sequestration of atmospheric CO$_2$. We consider sequestration of organic and inorganic carbon by a planted semi-arid forest, based on carbon that originates from…
Understanding the migration and trapping of CO$_2$ in the subsurface is vital to geologic carbon storage projects. Traditional characterization methods employ steady-state co-injection experiments to determine relative permeability and…
Direct fired supercritical CO2 (sCO2) power cycles allow for the combustion of gaseous fuels under oxyfuel conditions with inherent carbon capture. As the CO2 is captured intrinsically, the efficiency penalty of capture on the overall plant…
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a key chemical species that is found in a wide range of planetary atmospheres. In the context of exoplanets, CO2 is an indicator of the metal enrichment (i.e., elements heavier than helium, also called…
Carbon capture and storage in basalt is being actively investigated as a scalable climate change mitigation option. Accurate geochemical modeling prediction of the extent and rate of CO2 mineralization is a critical component in assessing…
The convective stability associated with carbon sequestration is usually investigated by adopting an unsteady diffusive basic profile. The method of normal modes is not applicable due to the time dependence of the nonlinear base profile.…
The CO2 emissions from major industries cause serious global environment problems and their mitigation is urgently needed. The use of zeolite membranes is a very efficient way in order to capture CO2 from some flue gases. The dominant…
The photoconversion of CO$_2$ to hydrocarbons is a sustainable route to its transformation into value-added compounds and, thereby, crucial to mitigating the energy and climate crises. CuPt nanoparticles on TiO$_2$ surfaces have been…
Vacuum membrane distillation efficiently concentrates dilute ethanol streams produced by CO$_2$ electrolysis (CO2R), yielding up to ~40 wt.% ethanol in pure water. Our results allow for a more precise estimation of energy inputs to the…
The electrolysis of CO$_2$ in molten carbonate has been introduced as an alternative mechanism to synthesize carbon nanomaterials inexpensively at high yield. Until recently, CO$_2$ was thought to be unreactive, making its removal a…
Carbon, capture, and storage (CCS) is an important bridging technology to combat climate change in the transition towards net-zero. The FluidFlower concept has been developed to visualize and study CO$_2$ flow and storage mechanisms in…
