Abstract

Carbon dioxide (CO₂) sequestration via clathrate hydrate formation in sub-seabed saline sediments offers a promising solution for reducing anthropogenic CO₂ emissions. Nanostructured encapsulation using nanomaterials, such as carbon nanotubes, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), graphene oxide, and bio-inspired designs has shown potential in stabilizing CO₂ within solid matrices, enabling controlled hydrate formation and storage. However, fluctuating pressure, temperature, and salinity conditions, especially in harsh environments, challenge encapsulation stability, requiring material optimization for sediment compatibility. Nanomaterials additives enhance hydrate stability, CO₂ absorption efficiency, and mass transfer, though the performance depends on type, size, texture, composition, and formation conditions. Synergistic effects between nanomaterials and surfactants/polymers further improve interfacial tension (IFT) reduction, induction time, and storage capacity. This work highlights key mechanisms governing nanomaterials' CO₂ uptake in subseafloor sediments, including adsorption/absorption, diffusion, structural modifications, confinement effects, and hydrophobic interactions. In addition, the study underscores advanced characterization techniques, such as Raman spectroscopy, XRD, and molecular dynamics, providing insights into structural and thermal properties, while field studies in regions like the North Sea and Norway highlight practical challenges. Despite progress, scalability, cost-effectiveness, and environmental safety under variable subsea conditions remain hurdles. Emerging innovations, such as stimuli-responsive nanomaterials and hierarchical encapsulation architectures, could optimize long-term CO₂ storage and controlled release. By integrating the collective findings drawn from both empirical data in published papers and theoretical deductions, this work provides a roadmap to enhance comprehension regarding the screening, design, formation, nucleation, and growth of CO2 hydrate in nanostructured encapsulation system toward sustainable CO₂ storage and global decarbonization goals.
海底盐质沉积物中以笼形水合物形式控制CO2储存的纳米结构封装:安全壳、稳定性和脱碳的现场规模应用。回顾
海底盐质沉积物中通过笼形水合物形成的方式封存二氧化碳(CO₂),为减少人为CO₂排放提供了一种很有前景的解决方案。使用纳米材料(如碳纳米管、金属有机框架(mof)、氧化石墨烯和生物启发设计)的纳米结构封装已经显示出在固体基质中稳定CO₂的潜力,从而能够控制水合物的形成和储存。然而,波动的压力、温度和盐度条件,特别是在恶劣环境中,会挑战封装稳定性,因此需要优化材料以适应沉积物的兼容性。纳米材料添加剂提高了水合物稳定性、CO₂吸收效率和传质性能,尽管性能取决于类型、尺寸、质地、成分和形成条件。纳米材料与表面活性剂/聚合物之间的协同效应进一步提高了界面张力(IFT)的降低、诱导时间和存储容量。这项工作强调了控制纳米材料在海底沉积物中CO 2吸收的关键机制,包括吸附/吸收、扩散、结构修饰、约束效应和疏水相互作用。此外,该研究强调了先进的表征技术,如拉曼光谱、XRD和分子动力学,提供了对结构和热性能的见解,而北海和挪威等地区的现场研究则突出了实际挑战。尽管取得了进展,但在多变的海底条件下,可扩展性、成本效益和环境安全性仍然存在障碍。新兴的创新,如刺激响应纳米材料和分层封装结构,可以优化二氧化碳的长期储存和控制释放。通过整合从已发表论文的经验数据和理论推导中得出的集体发现,本工作提供了一个路线图,以加强对纳米结构封装系统中CO2水合物的筛选、设计、形成、成核和生长的理解,以实现可持续的CO2储存和全球脱碳目标。
