Effect of Brine Composition on CO2/Limestone Rock Interactions during CO2 Sequestration
Several parameters affect the chemical reactions between CO2/fluid/rock: pressure, temperature, rock type, and brine composition. Brine composition includes salt concentration and type. Pink Desert limestone cores were used to conduct a series of coreflood experiments to address the effect of brine...
