Molecular physics of carbon storage and utilization in tight reservoirs
Marquez Hall 1600 Arapahoe St., Golden, CO, United StatesRUI QIAO Professor, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Virginia Tech Abstract: Oil from tight reservoirs has grown to dominate the liquid petroleum production in the U.S., which greatly benefits the petroleum industry. The industry, however, faces challenges in improving oil recovery from these reservoirs and reducing its carbon footprint. CO2 injection for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and CO2 sequestration […]
