CO2 is one of the hazardous greenhouse gases causing significant changes to the environment. The sequestering of CO2 in a suitable geological media can be a feasible method to avoid the negative effects of CO2 emissions into the atmosphere. A numerical model was developed regarding CO2 sequestration in a deep saline aquifer. A compositional numerical model using CMG software (GEM) was employed to study the ability of the selected aquifer to accept and retain large quantities of CO2 injected in a supercritical state for long periods of time (up to 260 years).

Simulating CO2 sequestration in a depleted gas reservoir Özkılıç, Öke İsmet; Gümrah, Fevzi; Department of Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering (2005) Carbon dioxide is one of the greenhouse gases which have strong impacts on the environment and its amount in the atmosphere is far beyond to be ignored. Carbon dioxide levels are projected to be reduced by sequestering it directly to the underground. High amounts of carbon dioxide can be safely stored in underground media for very long time periods. Storage in depleted gas reservoirs provides an option for sequestering carbon dioxide. In 2002, production of Kuzey Marmara gas reservoir has been stopped due t...
Modeling of carbon dioxide sequestration in a deep saline aquifer Başbuğ, Başar; Gümrah, Fevzi; Department of Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering (2005) CO2 is one of the hazardous greenhouse gases causing significant changes in the environment. The sequestering CO2 in a suitable geological medium can be a feasible method to avoid the negative effects of CO2 emissions in the atmosphere. CO2 sequestration is the capture of, separation, and long-term storage of CO2 in underground geological environments. A case study was simulated regarding the CO2 sequestration in a deep saline aquifer. The compositional numerical model (GEM) of the CMG software was used to ...
Investigation of Turkey's carbon dioxide problem by numerical modeling Can, Ali; Tokdemir, Turgut; Department of Engineering Sciences (2006) CO2 emission is very important, because it is responsible for about 60% of the "Greenhouse Effect". The major objectives of this study were to prepare a CO2 emission inventory of Turkey based on districts and provinces by using the fuel consumption data with respect to its sources, to find the CO2 uptake rate of forests in Turkey based on provinces and districts, and to estimate the ground level concentration of CO2 across Turkey using U.S. EPA's ISCLT3 model for the preparation of ground level concentratio...
Modification of pebax and zif-8/pebax membranes by additional solvent treatment to improve co2/n2 separation performance Alsuhile, Ala Abdulalem Abdo Moqbel; Kalıpçılar, Halil; Büküşoğlu, Emre; Department of Chemical Engineering (2020-9) Capturing carbon dioxide is currently one of the most attractive research areas due to the serious problems that CO2 emission creates for the environment. The main aim of this work is to utilize cheap and environmentally friendly methods with simple synthesizing systems to enhance the separation performance of CO2 from N2 using PEBAX 1657 membranes. Thus, in this study, solvent modification and double-layer methods were used to improve the permeability of carbon dioxide in pure PEBAX 1657 and ZIF-8/PEB...
Methodology for the Study of Solar Energy Effects to CO2 Balance in Tobacco Industry and Tobacco Plants Yılmaz, Elanur (2009-01-01) This work is the first part of a global study about the CO2 mass balance in a tobacco industry, including the CO2 sequestration in the tobacco plants,CO2 sequestration in an eucalyptus forest, solar irradiation, and the approach methodology to obtain the CO2 emission of the process in the industry. The aim of this work is to identify the variations in the CO2 sequestration through the growing of tobacco plants in Chile and consequently in many parts of the world. It is necessary to correlate the on-site mea...
