CO2 solubility in brine in silica nanopores in relation to geological CO2 sequestration in tight formations: Effect of salinity and pH
Download2021-05-01
Li, Wenhui, Nan, Yiling, You, Qing, Jin, Zhehui
Geological CO2 sequestration during CO2 enhanced oil recovery in tight formations is a technically and economically viable option to alleviate carbon emission. In tight formations, there existsare enormous number of nano-scale pores, which can be filled with connate and injected water. In...

Molecular Dynamics Study on CO2 Storage in Water-Filled Kerogen Nanopores in Shale Reservoirs: Effects of Kerogen Maturity and Pore Size
Download2020-12-21
Li, Wenhui, Zhang, Mingshan, Nan, Yiling, Pang, Wanying, Jin, Zhehui
CO2 sequestration in shale reservoirs is an economically viable option to alleviate carbon emission. Kerogen, a major component in the organic matter in shale, is associated with a large number of nanopores, which might be filled with water. However, the CO2 storage mechanism and capacity in...

Structural properties of deprotonated naphthenic acids immersed in water in pristine and hydroxylated carbon nanopores from molecular perspectives
Download2021-08-05
Zhang, Mingshan, Li, Wenhui, Jin, Zhehui
We use molecular dynamic simulations to study the structural properties of deprotonated cyclohexanoic acid (DCHA) and heptanoic acid (DHA) immersed in water in pristine and hydroxylated carbon nanopores (PACNs and HACNs) in relation to NA removal by activated carbons (ACs). In PACNs, both NAs can...
