Carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) is one of the most promising technologies that can eliminate/reduce global warming, helping the world to move towards a low-carbon society. The process comprises of the separation of CO2 from industrial sources, transport to a storage location and then long-term isolation from the atmosphere. CO2- rich pipelines are a key part of any carbon capture and storage projects. Modelling of these types of pipelines are challenging due to the lack of thermo-physical properties of CO2 in presence of impurities. As these properties, particularly density and viscosity, have a significant impact on the sizing of equipment, therefore, it is crucial to investigate the impact of different impurities on the thermo-physical properties of CO2- rich systems. Densities and viscosities of pure CO2, two CO2 – H2 binary systems (with 5 and with 10 mol% H2), and 6 multi-component mixtures (MIX 1 with 5 mol% impurity, MIX 2 with 10 mol % impurity, MIX 3 with 30 mol % impurity, MIX 4 with 50 mol % impurity, MIX 5 with 4 mol % impurity and MIX 6 with 30 mol % impurity) were measured at pressures ranging from 10 to 1,400 bar (1 to 140 MPa) and six different temperatures, 0, 10, 25, 50, 100, 150 °C (273.15, 283.15, 298.15, 323.15, 373.15 and 423.15 K) in the gas, liquid, and supercritical regions using an Anton Paar densitometer and capillary tube technique for density and viscosity measurements, respectively. The experimental density data then were applied to evaluate the models using CO2 correction volume, Peneloux shift parameter and original equation of states (PR and SRK). Also, the obtained viscosity data were employed to tune the correlative Lohrenz-Bray-Clark (LBC) and CO2-LBC models and to evaluate the predictive models. The predictive models in this work are based on corresponding states (CS) theory models. The “One reference fluid” corresponding states model is based on the approach developed by Pedersen et al. and modified for CO2-rich fluids; the “two reference fluids” corresponding states models are based on the model proposed by Aasberg-Petersen (CS2) and CO2-CS2 models. Two models based on the extended corresponding states (ECS) theory, SUPERTRAP and CO2-SUPERTRAP models were also tested. The densities of 95%CO2-5%H2S and 95%CO2-5%SO2 systems were measured continuously using a high temperature and pressure Vibrating Tube Densitometer (VTD), Anton Paar DMA 512 at pressures up to 400 bar (40 MPa) at five different temperatures, 0, 10, 25, 50 and 80 °C (273.15, 283.15, 298.15, 323.15 and 353.15 K) in the gas, liquid and supercritical regions at Mines Paristech, France. The experimental data then were used to evaluate the new CO2 volume correction model by comparing to the original PR and PR-Peneloux equations of state. A good understanding of vapour-solid / vapour-liquid-solid / liquid-solid equilibrium of CO2 and CO2-mixtures at low temperature is an important issue regarding the safety assessment of CO2 pipelines and the possibility of solid or ‘dry ice’ discharge during an accidental release or rapid decompression. The frost points of some of the above systems were measured using the SETARAM BT 2.15 calorimeter at various pressures.","abstract_html":"Numerous industrial and academic communities have directed their efforts into developing technologies for reducing the emission of CO2 in the atmosphere.
