  2. CO2 has been receiving a lot of publicity as of late, mostly bad PR. • Let’s get to know this compound • better. • CO2 is a vital compound for natural • processes, but can create havoc with • nature as well.

  3. The following will be covered briefly: • Properties/Phase Behavior • Solubility/Extraction • Swelling • Density • Viscosity • CO2 Sequestration Volume • Estimates

  4. Properties of Carbon Dioxide Molecular Weight = 44.01 g/mol Critical Pressure = 1071 psia (7.38 MPa) Critical Temperature = 87.9 F (31.1 C) Critical Density = 0.469 g/cc

  32. Volume Estimates • 88 Permian Basin reservoirs have a total pore volume of about 10 x109 m3 (61 billion barrels). • Using a conservative displacement efficiency and CO2 retention, 12% of the pore volume (1.2 x 109 m3) estimated for potential CO2 storage or ~ 1 x 109 tonnes). • ~1 x 109 tonnes possible storage.

  33. Production of CO2 from Hydrocarbons (Mole Wt. CO2/Mole Wt. Hydrocarbon) CH4 +(2)O2 = CO2 + (2)H2O Methane (44/16 = 2.75) CH2 +(1.5)O2 = CO2 + H2O Oil (~44/14 = 3.14) CH +(1.25)O2 = CO2 + (0.5)H2O Coal (~44/13 = 3.38)
