Abstract

The urgency in demand for global warming alleviation has necessitated more research into carbon-dioxide diffusion (CO₂) both for sequestration and enhanced oil recovery. Captured atmospheric CO₂ can be stored underground to leave a haven for the populace. CO₂ diffusivity in oil-brine-rock systems at various pressures and temperatures and also solely in brine with different ions but at a fixed temperature and pressure are studied. Increases in pressure and temperature leads to increase in diffusion coefficient of CO₂ in oil-brine-rock systems. On the other hand, in CO₂-brine system, the variations of ions affect CO₂ diffusion while Ca ion appears to result in the highest diffusivity of CO₂ in brine thereby, suggesting saline aquifers with Ca ion as the best choice for CO₂ sequestration.
