Feasibility of Large-Scale Ocean CO2 Sequestration
This report covers research accomplished during CY 2006 under a modification of a previous award. During this period we completed analysis of the acoustic detection and modeling of a rising deep-sea liquid CO{sub 2} plume, and published the results in a major journal. The results are applicable to d...

This report covers research accomplished during CY 2006 under a modification of a previous award. During this period we completed analysis of the acoustic detection and modeling of a rising deep-sea liquid CO{sub 2} plume, and published the results in a major journal. The results are applicable to detection of leakage of CO{sub 2} from the sea floor, either from natural CO{sub 2} vents, or from purposefully disposed CO{sub 2} in sub-sea geologic formations. In April 2006 we executed, in collaboration with colleagues from Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and Canada a novel at sea experiment on the creation of a sinking plume of a CO{sub 2} hydrate composite paste, extruded through nozzles designed by ORNL.
