Studies have shown that CO2 can be safely stored underground, such as in deep, porous rock formations, to solve issues related to carbon emissions. Formation rocks have the capacity to store carbon emissions, and this capacity depends on the rock type, depth, and fluids contained in the rock. CO2 geostorage has different trapping mechanisms with numerous factors influencing trapping potential, including geochemical and geomechanical effects and the associated seal integrity.

This ACS Omega Virtual Special Issue aims to provide a platform for the scientific community to present their high-quality research in CO2 geostorage.

We invite Articles, Mini-Reviews, Reviews, or Perspectives on all topics relating to CO2 geostorage, including (but not limited to):

  • CO2 trapping mechanisms
  • CO2 injectivity
  • Geomechanics and geochemistry for CO2 storage
  • Storage capacity estimation
  • Wellbore integrity for CO2 injection wells
  • Containment security and monitoring tools
