摘要

在深层地质含水层中进行碳捕集与封存(CCS)已被证明是大规模减缓二氧化碳(CO2)温室气体效应的最可行方案。然而,地下地层中的毛岩往往存在不连续性,从而导致所储存的二氧化碳泄漏。由于石油和天然气勘探井的过度疏通,废弃井等潜在的泄漏途径越来越多。考虑到这些油井对环境的负面影响以及二氧化碳封存效率的降低,二氧化碳从这些油井泄漏是一个令人担忧的重大问题。最近,微生物诱导方解石沉淀(MICP)技术已被证明是一种有效且可持续的降低地质材料渗透性的方法。然而,MICP 过程涉及生物-化学-水力学(BCH)领域之间错综复杂的相互作用,以理解生化物质的反应传输。MICP 过程的复杂性给在给定注入速率下设定特定目标距离的生化注入持续时间带来了困难。有鉴于此,本研究开发了一个耦合数值模型,并将其用作优化 MICP 注入的可行工具,以堵塞连接两个深层地质含水层的废弃水井。随后,研究利用未处理含水层和经 MICP 处理的泄漏含水层中的流量迁移率评估了二氧化碳的泄漏情况。研究提出了在近场和远场泄漏条件下生化注入的新型优化策略。研究还确定了生化注入持续时间对附着细菌数量和泄漏渗透性的敏感性。本研究的观察结果表明,由于 MICP 后渗透率降低,废弃油井的二氧化碳迁移率完全下降,从而表明了所建议的优化方法的有效性。此外,MICP 处理的成本分析表明,与二氧化碳泄漏的不利影响相比,目标距离的应用成本较为合理。

Numerical optimisation of microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) injection strategies for sealing the aquifer's leakage paths for CO2 geosequestration application

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) in deep geological aquifers has shown to be the most viable option for mitigating the greenhouse gas effect of carbon dioxide (CO2) at a large scale. However, the underground formations often possess discontinuities in the caprocks, leaking the stored CO2. Potential leakage paths, such as abandoned wells, have been growing due to excessively unplugged oil and gas exploration wells. The leakage of CO2 from these wells is a major concern, considering their negative impact on the environment and compromising CO2 storage efficiency. Recently, microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) technology has proven to be an effective and sustainable method for reducing the permeability of geomaterials. Nevertheless, the MICP process involves intricate interactions among bio-chemo-hydraulics (BCH) domains to comprehend the reactive transport of biochemicals. The complex nature of the MICP process poses difficulties in setting the biochemical injection durations for a particular target distance at the given injection rate. Given this, the present study developed a coupled numerical model and employed it as a workable tool for optimising MICP injections to plug the abandoned well connecting two deep geological aquifers. Following that, the study evaluated the leakage of CO2 using flow migration rates in the untreated and MICP-treated leaky aquifer. The study proposed a novel optimisation strategy for biochemical injections under near and far-field leakage conditions. The sensitivity of biochemical injection durations on the attached bacterial amount and permeability in the leak was also determined. The observations from the present study indicated a complete reduction in the CO2 migration rates from the abandoned well due to a reduced permeability after MICP, thereby indicating the efficacy of the proposed optimisation methodology. Further, a cost analysis of the MICP treatment indicated a rational application cost with the target distance compared to the detrimental effects of CO2 leakage.

期刊介绍: Advances in Water Resources provides a forum for the presentation of fundamental scientific advances in the understanding of water resources systems. The scope of Advances in Water Resources includes any combination of theoretical, computational, and experimental approaches used to advance fundamental understanding of surface or subsurface water resources systems or the interaction of these systems with the atmosphere, geosphere, biosphere, and human societies. Manuscripts involving case studies that do not attempt to reach broader conclusions, research on engineering design, applied hydraulics, or water quality and treatment, as well as applications of existing knowledge that do not advance fundamental understanding of hydrological processes, are not appropriate for Advances in Water Resources. Examples of appropriate topical areas that will be considered include the following: • Surface and subsurface hydrology • Hydrometeorology • Environmental fluid dynamics • Ecohydrology and ecohydrodynamics • Multiphase transport phenomena in porous media • Fluid flow and species transport and reaction processes
