| 英文摘要 | Storing CO2 in sub-seabed sediments is a promising CO2 sequestration method to reduce atmospheric CO2 concentrations and mitigate climate change. Leaked CO2 from the sequestration site can form CO2 hydrates in the sediment and reduce the effective permeability of the sediment layer, developing a self-sealing cap above the storage site. Previous studies usually treat the CO2 hydrate layer similarly to a methane hydrate reservoir. However, unlike methane, CO2 has a larger solubility that increases significantly with depth, leading to high gas saturation levels in the sediment. Near the base of the CO2 hydrate stability zone, CO2 free gas, CO2 hydrate and dissolved CO2 coexist, and elevated surface energies of the curved surfaces of bubbles and hydrate crystals in pores shift the phase equilibria. The bubbles entrapped in the three-phase zone help to reduce the effective permeability besides accumulate CO2 hydrates. We simulate the three-phase zone in a shallow seabed using Monte Carlo methods in packed synthetic mono-dispersed spherical sediment grains, taking into account of the surface curvatures of the gas-liquid and hydrate-liquid interfaces in irregular pore spaces constrained by the sediment grains, and estimate the permeability reduction caused by entrapped CO2 bubbles. Finer sediment grains, larger geothermal gradients and shallower seawater all tend to broaden the zone, and the effective permeability in the three-phase zone can be further reduced by up to an order of magnitude than that with hydrates only. We also analyze the sensitivity of the three-phase zone due to temperature and pressure perturbations, and the results suggest possible thickness and depth variations of the zone due to cyclic temperature and sea level changes. This work demonstrates the difference between the CO2 hydrate-bearing sediment layer and the methane hydrate reservoir, and provides insight into the formation mechanism of the self-sealing cap above the sequestration sites. |
