Feasibility of monitoring techniques for substances mobilised by CO2 storage in geological formations
23rd December 2011
Topic(s): Carbon capture use and storage (CCUS), CO2 storage
This study has been conducted to identify suitable analytes and monitoring tools for substances mobilized by CO2 as proxy indicators of CO2 movement or release. These indicators were divided into four main categories: (1) physical effects (e.g. changes in pressure, temperature, density, flow); (2) geochemical effects (e.g. diagenetic or dissolution effects); (3) shallow/surface effects (e.g. changes to microbial or ecological communities), and (4) capture gas contaminants that would be entrained in the CO2 plume but could act as chemical tracers.
