Summary: | 碩士 === 國立中央大學 === 應用地質研究所 === 101 === Disposal or storage of pressurized CO2 from fossil-fired power plants in deep saline aquifers has been suggested as a potential method to reduce emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. CO2 injection and storage in subsurface will give rise to complex processes of mechanical, fluid flow, and transport. In this study, we simulate the couple hydro-mechanical behaviors resulting from CO2 injection and storage in Changhua Coastal Industrial Park in Taiwan. Two computer codes of FLAC¬3D and TOUGH2 are linked to perform the simulation. The results show significant changes in values of material parameters near the bottom of caprock and injection zone. The simulation in this study, we facilitate to evaluate the maximum volume of CO2 storage and the largest pressure of injection in the geological formation in Changhua Coastal Industrial Park.
