Humans are faced with a potentially disastrous global problem owing to the current emission
of 32 gigatonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) annually into the atmosphere. A possible way to …

Sequestration of carbon dioxide in saline aquifers has emerged as the preferred method of
permanently storing CO 2 in subsurface formations because of the abundance and potential …

The dissolution of carbon dioxide (CO 2) in deep saline aquifer water is recognized as one
of the fundamental mechanisms in the subsurface for storing significant quantities of CO 2 …

We numerically characterize the temporal regimes for solutal convection from almost first
contact to high dissolved solute concentration in a two-dimensional ideal porous layer for …

CO 2 injection into deep saline aquifers has shown to be a feasible option, as for their large
storage capacity under safe operational conditions. Previous studies have revealed that CO …

The geologic sequestration of carbon dioxide (CO2) in structural and stratigraphic traps is a
viable option to reduce anthropogenic emissions. While dissolution of the CO2 stored in …

Dissolution trapping plays a significant role in CO2 geological storage. When CO2 dissolves
in aquifer brines, the aqueous solution is heavier than the underlying resident brine. This …

In partially miscible two-layer systems within a gravity field, buoyancy-driven convective
motions can appear when one phase dissolves with a finite solubility into the other one. We …

The injection of carbon dioxide (CO2) captured at large point sources into deep saline
aquifers can significantly reduce anthropogenic CO2 emissions from fossil fuels. Dissolution …

The problem of convection in a fluid-saturated porous medium is reviewed with a focus on
'vigorous' convective flow, when the driving buoyancy forces are large relative to any …
