Reactive Transport Modeling of the Enhancement of Density-Driven CO(2) Convective Mixing in Carbonate Aquifers and its Potential Implication on Geological Carbon Sequestration

We study the convection and mixing of CO(2) in a brine aquifer, where the spread of dissolved CO(2) is enhanced because of geochemical reactions with the host formations (calcite and dolomite), in addition to the extensively studied, buoyancy-driven mixing. The nonlinear convection is investigated u...
