Abstract |
If carbon dioxide capture and storage becomes a large-scale widely deployed technology, concerns that emissions of CO2 from man-made underground storage sites could have a deleterious effect on the natural environment and/or be harmful to man must be addressed. This report addresses these concerns by describing the following: - The origin of CO2 emitted from underground
- The major types of natural CO2 emissions that occur from the geosphere (the solid part of the planet beneath the atmosphere and oceans) by means of detailed case-studies
- Some of the man-made CO2 storage projects under way around the world.
In the final chapter, we assess the relevance of natural CO2 emissions to man-made storage sites by comparing natural CO2 emissions with putative emission fromengineered geological CO2 storage sites. |
