Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Global warming being a serious problem has threatened our plant. Carbon dioxide is a main gas causing this problem. Through the past decades up to date, scientific efforts have focused to improve and develop a quality of fuels or look for alternative clean burning fuels. Whereas, the post-combustion method has been used to control the emitting of CO2 gas from power plants. CO2 can be captured by using a suitable solvent via absorption process or using a suitable adsorbent via adsorption process. In addition, a huge amount of CO2 has been injected through wells into underground using depleted gases or hydrocarbons reservoirs or using unmineable coal seams in deep reservoirs. Consequently, climate change problem can be attenuated, and the future of next generations can be secured.

This Special issue aims to collect original research or review articles on CO2 capture and storage using different classes of porous materials or solvents including theoretical and experimental studies. Using solvents such as modified aqueous amines, ionic liquids, switchable solvents, and nanoparticle organic hybrid materials for CO2 absorption is encouraged. In addition, using metal oxides, inorganic organic frameworks, MOFs, COFs, zeolites and activated carbon, underground reservoirs for gas adsorption or storage is considered.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Energies is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Wettability is one of the main parameters controlling CO2 injectivity and the movement of CO2 plume during geological CO2 sequestration. Despite significant research efforts, there is still a high uncertainty associated with the wettability of CO2/brine/rock systems and how they evolve with CO2 exposure. This study, therefore, aims to measure the contact angle of sandstone samples with varying clay content before and after laboratory core flooding at different reservoir pressures, of 10 MPa and 15 MPa, and a temperature of 323 K. The samples’ microstructural changes are also assessed to investigate any potential alteration in the samples’ structure due to carbonated water exposure. The results show that the advancing and receding contact angles increased with the increasing pressure for both the Berea and Bandera Gray samples. Moreover, the results indicate that Bandera Gray sandstone has a higher contact angle. The sandstones also turn slightly more hydrophobic after core flooding, indicating that the sandstones become more CO2-wet after CO2 injection. These results suggest that CO2 flooding leads to an increase in the CO2-wettability of sandstone, and thus an increase in vertical CO2 plume migration and solubility trapping, and a reduction in the residual trapping capacity, especially when extrapolated to more prolonged field-scale injection and exposure times.
