“…The approach of expanding arbitrary polynomial chaos (aPC) seems to be quite time-efficient for conducting a global sensitivity analysis of modeling the dissolution of minerals and sediments in scenarios of geological carbon storage. 22 The aPC approach is used to investigate how modeling input uncertainties affect model output in a complex geochemical model. Using the aPC approach can reduce 99% of the simulation time for a complex geochemical model compared to the traditional Monte Carlo approach.…”

The problem of carbon dioxide utilization is of increasing concern to the public, since measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions are no longer sufficient to prevent a global increase in temperature on the planet. Most modeling scenarios show that a significant deployment of negative emission technologies is required. Carbon dioxide is often used as an agent for enhancing hydrocarbon production in the development of oil and gas fields, which is technologically consistent with projects for its utilization and underground storage in depleted reservoirs, saline aquifers, and shale rocks. For the successful implementation of such sequestration projects, it is necessary to conduct a complex of experimental, modeling, and field studies. It is necessary to understand the characteristic physical and chemical changes that occur in a subterranean formation during sequestration processes, such as dissolution, chemical reactions, convective mixing, advective processes, and dispersion. Computer modeling of ongoing processes is seen as a very important task for the correct functioning of such projects. The article deals with topical problems of computer modeling of processes associated with underground injection and storage of carbon dioxide, and also presents the results of laboratory studies on the utilization of carbon dioxide through its catalytic conversion into useful energy resources—hydrogen and hydrocarbons. The findings of this study can help to better understand physicochemical mechanisms that can occur in subterranean formations when carbon dioxide is injected. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry and John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

“…The experiment of Zhao et al showed that pore structures were affected during CO 2 injection, in which the precipitation of secondary minerals changed the sorting behavior of the rock formation, especially the pore throats, causing the permeability to decline . The change in pore throats is because of the strong precipitation of carbonate minerals, feldspar and quartz. ,,,− The results of the experiment of Zhao et al. are presented in Figure .…”

Carbon capture and storage has been identified as an important and viable technology for climate change mitigation. The technology allows CO 2 generated from largescale sources, such as power plants and other heavy industries, to be captured and stored in deep geological formations. However, when CO 2 is stored in geological formations, there are possibilities of formation damage, which may reduce injectivity and storage capacity. In this study, formation damage during CO 2 injection and storage is reviewed through different experimental studies. The study has shown that the interaction between CO 2 , formation water, and rock minerals often results in mineral dissolution and precipitation, which affect reservoir permeability and porosity, which could possibly cause formation damage, compromising the reservoir storage capacity. This study also reveals that formation damage could be caused by the precipitation of sulfate scales, salt, and carbonate minerals. Additionally, in several studies, rock minerals were observed to dissolve and create free particles that were transported to occupy pore spaces along the fluid flow path, reducing permeability and impacting CO 2 injectivity and storage. It is worth noting that the reviewed experiments present short-term effects of formation damage on geological formations, while in reality, CO 2 storage is a long-term project, thus eliciting the need for more studies in that regard.

“…For example, if pore surfaces are lined with secondary clay, clay-fluid reactions may well control fluid chemistry regardless of the bulk rock composition. Interest in understanding reactive transport, especially with regard to CO 2 sequestration and contaminant transport ,,,,,,− has, therefore, led to several attempts to analyze the relationship between bulk and reactive mineralogy (those minerals likely to react with a fluid flowing through the rock) in porous materials. It has been shown that bulk mineralogy does not necessarily reflect the mineralogy reacting with the pore fluids.…”

The textural patterns of geologic materials both reflect and control reactive mineralogy and transport. This is true for a wide range of geochemical reactions. The chemistry of fluids controlled by dissolution during transport depends on the mineralogy to which those fluids have access, either directly on pore walls or fractures, or through diffusive or grain boundary transport in the bulk rock. Similarly, mineral growth during metamorphic, igneous, and diagenetic processes and the final mineral distribution depends on the accessibility of the necessary components to the growing phases and thus on their spatial distribution. To either derive petrologic information from a given rock sample, or to predict fluid chemistry during reactive transport, the geometric relationships between the pore structure and mineralogy of the sample must be quantified. This paper describes a method, based on two-point autocorrelation/crosscorrelation analysis, by which the statistical distribution of distances between the phases, including the pore space, in a given sample may be quantified as the percentage likelihood that a given phase lies at a given distance from any other phase (or the pore space or pore boundary) in that sample, and suggests how those results can be used to quantify reactive mineralogy. This approach is not data source dependent; any two-or three-dimensional image can be analyzed. The results are limited only by the quality of the imagery. Analysis of three examples, one from the Mt. Simon Sandstone in the Illinois Basin and two from the Nagaoka CO 2 sequestration site in Japan, demonstrates the method.
