... Abstract Global warming is one of the major threats of 21st century and the CO 2 sequestration in unmineable coal seams can be a feasible solution to this problem. However, the effect of CO 2 on the physical and mechanical properties of the host rock has a major control on the storage...

... Introduction Geological CO 2 storage (GCS), particularly in deep saline aquifers, is considered to be a promising technology to reduce the CO 2 emissions into the atmosphere due to the burning of fossil fuels. Large-scale and long-term CO 2 sequestration is a significantly coupled thermal-hydraulic...

... Abstract Geologic sequestration of anthropogenic greenhouse gases into deep geological reservoirs like coal seams has caught attention worldwide. The potential of coal to adsorb CO 2 and preferentially release methane partly offsets the cost of capture, transport and storage of the gases...
