Leakage of carbon dioxide from a simulated subseabed Carbon Capture and Storage reservoir: potential impacts on benthic biogeochemistry
Carbon Capture and Storage is a nascent technology developed with the intention of collecting carbon dioxide emissions from the flue gasses of point source producers, such as power stations or cement works. The carbon dioxide is then stored in underground geological reservoirs so that it does not …

Implications of permeability uncertainty within engineered geologic fluid systems
… and sequestration (CCS) in geologic reservoirs is one strategy for reducing anthropogenic CO2 emissions from large-scale point source emitters. Recent developments have shown that basalt reservoirs are highly effective for permanent mineral trapping on the basis of CO2-water-rock …

Analysis of sustainable water supply options for Kuwait
… and rainfall harvesting. Options for water storage are also considered, including both aquifer and surface systems. Case studies are presented which demonstrate the potential for indirect potable use of Kuwait's highly purified wastewater, and the importance of a storage reservoir as part of …

Optimal reliability-based design of bulk water supply systems
… Africa, design guidelines specify that a bulk storage reservoir should have a storage capacity of 48 hours of annual average daily demand (AADD), and the feeder pipe a capacity of 1.5 times AADD (CSIR, 2000). Nel & Haarhoff (1996) proposed a stochastic analysis method that allowed the …

Performance evaluation of photovoltaic and diesel electricity generation applications in the Kruger National Park
… genset systems, the introduction of an energy storage reservoir, in so-called genset-plus systems, represents a refinement in the operating characteristics of diesel gensets which also has not been critically evaluated. This study addresses the need for reliable and empirically derived data …

Assessing Drought Flows For Yield Estimation
… is withdrawn from a river directly without any storage, the withdrawal is constrained by the worst drought flow in the river. There is no flexibility for operational adjustments other than implementing conservation measures. Where there is a storage reservoir, yields higher than the flow in the …

Numerical Investigations of Geologic CO2 Sequestration Using Physics-Based and Machine Learning Modeling Strategies
… CO2 emissions. Deep brine aquifers and basalt reservoirs have shown outstanding performance in CO2 storage based on their global widespread distribution and large storage capacity. Capillary trapping and mineral trapping are the two dominant mechanisms controlling the distribution, migration, …

Coupling tough2 and SEAWAT variable-density models to understand potential geologic carbon sequestration impacts on groundwater resources
The Mt. Simon Formation, the basal sandstone reservoir in the Illinois Basin, is the storage reservoir for a geologic carbon sequestration (GCS) project in central Illinois (USA). The Mt. Simon is a highly saline reservoir at the injection location (Macon County), but its salinity decreases to the …

Rivers With Borders: Bi-National Water Management Model for the St. Mary-Milk Basins
… constraints, and limitations in diversion and storage infrastructure. These challenges have gained urgency following recent droughts and infrastructure failures that have exposed vulnerabilities in the existing system. This thesis applies a bi-national water management model of the St. Mary and …

Use Patterns and Influencing Factors of Irrigation Best Management Practices in the Lower Mississippi River Basin
… flow meters, and pump timers), water recovery/storage practices (tail-water recovery system and on-farm storage reservoir), and advanced irrigation scheduling practices (soil moisture sensors, ET or atmometers, computerized scheduling, and Woodruff charts). We find that most of the sample …

Wellbore Microannulus Characterization and Seal Repair: Computational and Lab Scale Modeling
… as oil and gas can subsequently be used as a storage reservoir for the common greenhouse gas CO2, a concept known as Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS). Pre-existing wellbores penetrate the reservoirs where supercritical CO2 is to be injected. These wellbores can potentially be a pathway for …

Aquifer Characterization in the Blue Ridge Physiographic Province
… the porous regolith as the primary water storage reservoir for the entire aquifer system. In this research, detailed hydrogeologic studies in the Blue Ridge Province in Floyd County, Virginia reveal a substantially different framework for groundwater flow. Recent acquisition of …

The effect of construction activity on SPA waterfowl: a case study of the Abberton Reservoir Enhancement Scheme
Abberton Reservoir Essex, covering 4.85km2, is a water storage reservoir and is designated a Ramsar site, Special Protection Area (SPA) and Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). In order to meet predicted increases in water demand, large scale construction works to raise the water level of …
