Numerical simulations of CO2 injection into a porous sandstone formation

CO2 is sequestered in geological formations by three trapping mechanisms: solubility, mineral and hydrodynamic trapping. This is to capture and securely storage the CO2 emissions produced by human activities from reaching the atmosphere. For this to happen the injectivity of the formation needs to b...
