Microfluidic mass transfer of CO<sub>2</sub> at elevated pressures: implications for carbon storage in deep saline aquifers
Tsai-Hsing Martin Ho, Junyi Yang, Peichun Amy Tsai
Abstract
Carbon capture and storage in deep saline aquifers is a promising technology to mitigate anthropologically emitted CO 2 . Our high-pressure microfluidics can help assess the relevant time-scale and CO 2 mass transfer in different reservoir conditions.
