“…Most of the recorded failures to date were caused largely by third party interference, pipeline corrosion, material and construction defects, such as welds, and movement of ground or operator errors [102,115,167,190,224,229,237,248]. Leakage could also be a result of existing or induced defects, fractures, or along a spill position [235].…”

“…Importantly, these figures depend on the pipe diameter, puncture size and the level of impurities that may affect the CO 2 stream phase, operating temperature and pressure, as well as on whether the CO 2 release and dispersion is planned or accidental [78,102,190,224,[234][235][236]. Furthermore, a change in the CO 2 phase gives rise to dry ice formation in the pipeline surroundings that has an indirect effect on the concentration and impurities around the faulty pipeline [190,237]. An industrial-scale experiment on the release and dispersal of CO 2 known as CO 2 PIPETRANS was conducted by BP and Shell ( Figure 14).…”

“…However, if the CO 2 transport pipeline is accidentally ruptured, it can release a considerable amount of CO 2 into the air that could pose harm to humans under particular circumstances. Considering 31 the fact that certain regions of the earth, such as the European Union, are characterised by a high population density and that some of the CO 2 capture sites are located near cities, existing regulations should be strengthened to route high-pressure pipelines away from buildings and dwellings [24,41,110,115,190,224,227,238,244,247]. Moreover, care must be taken to significantly reduce the impurities content in the CO 2 stream that can pose injury or harm to humans, such as H 2 S. In this sense, CO 2 transport pipelines must be buried deep enough to prevent digging equipment from reaching them.…”

“…Before material selection is carried out, it is necessary to identify the full stream composition together with the whole range of operating conditions that all the system equipment will be exposed to [70,109,175,[186][187][188][189]. Again, consideration should be given to the steady state as well as the dynamic excursion situations such as shut-down, start-up, and upsets [117,190,191]. In CO 2 pipeline transport, corrosion and corrosion mechanism considerations take into account: free water phase, CO 2 corrosion and O 2 corrosion of carbon steel, corrosion-resistant alloys, stress corrosion, hydrogen damage, liquid metal embrittlement and degradation of non-metallic parts [78,159,161,192].…”

“…A necessary consideration of reliability, availability, maintainability and operability (RAMO) characteristics of the CO 2 transport pipeline makes significant positive contribution to achieving reasonable economic life cycle costs [84,167,190,194,[220][221][222][223]. Importantly, it has been 29 claimed that there is little experience to date on the actual behaviour of anthropogenic CO 2 in the supercritical phase and this poses a number of challenges for the integrity, reliability, safety and cost-efficiency of the pipeline [123,170,173,189,224].…”

Transport of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) via pipeline from the point of capture to a geologically suitable location for either sequestration or enhanced hydrocarbon recovery is a vital aspect of the carbon capture and storage (CCS) chain. This means of CO 2 transport has a number of advantages over other means of CO 2 transport, such as truck, rail, and ship. Pipelines ensure continuous transport of CO 2 from the capture point to the storage site, which is essential to transport the amount of CO 2 captured from the source facilities, such as fossil fuel power plants, operating in a continuous manner. Furthermore, using pipelines is regarded as more economical than other means of CO 2 transportThe greatest challenges of CO 2 transport via pipelines are related to integrity, flow assurance, capital and operating costs, and health, safety and environmental factors. Deployment of CCS pipeline projects is based either on point-to-point transport, in which case a specific source matches a specific storage point, or through the development of pipeline networks with a backbone CO 2 pipeline. In the latter case, the CO 2 streams, which are characterised by a varying impurity level and handled by the individual operators, are linked to the backbone CO 2 pipeline for further compression and transport. This may pose some additional challenges.This review involves a systematic evaluation of various challenges that delay the deployment of CO 2 pipeline transport and is based on an extensive survey of the literature. It is aimed at confidence-building in the technology and improving economics in the long run. Moreover, the knowledge gaps were identified, including lack of analyses on a holistic assessment of component impurities, corrosion consideration at the conceptual stage, the effect of elevation on CO 2 dense phase characteristics, permissible water levels in liquefied CO 2 , and commercial risks associated with project abandonment or cancellation resulting from high project capital and operating costs.2

Carbon Capture Enhancement by Water‐Based Nanofluids in a Hollow Fiber Membrane Contactor

et al. 2023

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Nanoparticles are being used in the CO2 solvents to improve the capture performance. Herein, a 2D model is proposed to study the CO2 capture performance from a gaseous mixture using a hollow fiber membrane contactor (HFMC). Both water‐based nanofluids of carbon nanotubes (CNT) and SiO2 are deployed as the carbon absorbents. It is verified that Brownian motion and grazing effect are the major reasons to enhance the mass transfer of nanofluids. The simulation findings show that the modeling data conform well with the experimental studies. The root‐mean‐square errors for SiO2 nanofluid and CNT nanofluid are 2.37% and 2.56%, respectively. When the amounts of nanoparticles increase between 0.02 and 0.06 wt%, CO2 capture efficiencies of SiO2 and CNT nanofluids increase by 7.92% and 13.17%, respectively. Also, the CNT nanofluid has a better capture performance than the SiO2 nanofluid. Furthermore, research is conducted into how membrane characteristics affect HFMC performance. It is indicated that increasing the membrane porosity and decreasing the membrane tortuosity have a positive impact on the capture efficiency. This work demonstrates the potentials in the use of nanoparticles in CO2 solvents and provides a solid theoretical basis for nanofluids to significantly enhance gas absorption.

A method for calculating the source terms including values of leak rate, phase fraction, final velocity, and temperature at the position where the leakage jet has expanded to atmospheric pressure from a CO2 pipeline containing impurities (methane and water) is presented with regard to the time‐dependency of the source terms during the leakage. The thermodynamical properties for the mixture are calculated using the Soave‐Redlich‐Kwong equation of state with modified 1st order Huron‐Vidal mixing rule, which is adjustable in PVTsim. The results for the solubility of water in CO2 have shown that this thermodynamic model provides accurate predictions for the mixture properties. The thermodynamic model has been used along with a robust transient two‐phase flow simulator, OLGA, to simulate the leak from the pipeline. Finally, the predicted time‐dependant source terms (Release Rate, Phase Fraction, Final Velocity, and Temperature in the downstream of the leak) were used as input into the dispersion model (UDM) in form of sequential segments.
