Advanced Modeling Methods in Carbon Dioxide Sequestration


Description:
The reactive transport process of sequestering carbon dioxide in geologic formations is complicated. This session will address advanced experimental and modeling issues related to storage of carbon dioxide in underground formations. Modeling heterogeneities and parameter uncertainties, model validation, up-scaling laboratory information, and flow and transport in faults and fractures would be some of the topics considered. New experimental data on all aspects of sequestration will also be appropriate for this session.
