Objective
CO2 sequestration in geological formations containing saline water has been proposed as solution to reduce gas emission to the atmosphere. Multiphase CO2 storage modelling is a highly challenging problem. CO2-MATE will focus on the processes that govern CO2 flow and transport in saline aquifers. The objective of the project is to contribute to the knowledge of the behaviour of CO2 transport in saline aquifers. In particular CO2-MATE aims (1) to advance in the understanding of the CO2 trapping mechanisms and their numerical modelling, (2) to study the influence of heterogeneity in the mixing (dissolution) and spreading (extension) of the CO2 plume and (3) to extend the results on mixing and spreading to reactive multiphase transport modelling of CO2. CO2-MATE has a multidisciplinary approach including advanced physical and mathematical theories and powerful numerical codes. New theoretical and numerical models for CO2 multiphase reactive transport will be developed. CO2-MATE will increase our capacity to model multiphase flow and transport in aquifers, with emphasis on addressing the effect of heterogeneity and chemical reactions.
