Flow in Porous Media and CO2 Storage in Enhanced Oil Recovery
This special issue belongs to the section “Chemical Processes and Systems“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Climate change is a major global challenge critical to the development of the world. Carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) is considered to be a crucial method to reduce CO2 emission. As one of the most attractive technologies of CCUS, CO2-Enhanced oil recovery (CO2-EOR) has been employed to achieve CO2 geological storage and improve the production of crude oil. This technology brings economic benefits and shows great potential to tackle climate change.
This Special Issue on “Flow in Porous Media and CO2 Storage in Enhanced Oil Recovery” aims to cover recent advances in the theory and application of CO2 Sequestration, CO2 flooding, CO2 huff-puff, CO2 fracturing, and other related topics. Novel experimental and numerical research, reviews of recent developments, and emerging technologies about the topic are welcome.
