The oxidation of fossil fuels produces billions of tons of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO 2)
emissions from stationary and nonstationary sources per annum, contributing to global …

The earth's temperature and climate are being affected by human activities that involve
burning of fossil fuels and the clearing of forests, which release the greenhouse gases, like …

Every year, millions of tons of CO2 are stored in CO2-storage formations (deep saline
aquifers) containing traces of organic acids including hexanoic acid C6 (HA), lauric acid C12 …

Hypothesis Nanofluid treatment is a promising technique which can be used for wettability
reversal of CO 2-brine-mineral systems towards a further favourable less CO 2-wet state in …

The usage of nanofluids is vast in different applications of nano-energy. These minute
nanoparticles can be used to alter the hydrophobicity into hydrophilicity for CO 2-brine …

The urgent need to accelerate permanent anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO 2) abatement
has led to a growing interest in in-situ CO 2 mineralisation globally. This review outlines the …

Carbondioxide injection into geological formations is a promising method of optimizing
hydrocarbon recovery, as well as improving CO 2 geo-storage security. However, the …

Wettability of CO 2-brine-mineral systems plays a vital role during geological CO 2-storage.
Residual trapping is lower in deep saline aquifers where the CO 2 is migrating through …

Produced water samples collected from Surat Basin coal seams in eastern Queensland,
Australia were shown to contain viable microbial consortia with the ability to convert native …

Coal seams offer tremendous potential for carbon geo-sequestration with the dual benefit of
enhanced methane recovery. In this context, it is essential to characterize the wettability of …
