Deep Carbon Storage Space Utilization Potential and Suitability Assessment

Dear Colleagues,

CO₂ geological storage has become a critical pathway to mitigate global warming. Current methods primarily involve deep saline aquifers and coal seam reservoirs, but challenges persist in storage potential evaluation, theoretical frameworks, and technology development. These limitations severely constrain the large-scale implementation of carbon storage projects, making research on the geological assessment of deep carbon storage spaces incredibly significant. This topic will elaborate and discuss the latest advances in the following areas: regional stability assessments for CO₂ storage site selection; CO₂ storage mechanisms and potential evaluation; safety impact assessment for large-scale CO₂ storage; and methodological frameworks for carbon storage space utilization potential and suitability.
