Title: Preliminary assessment of the potential for carbon dioxide disposal by sequestration in geological settings in Nevada
Author: Jonathan G. Price, Ronald H. Hess, Shane Fitch, James E. Faulds, Larry J. Garside, Lisa Shevenell, and Sean Warren
Year: 2005
Series: Report 51p
Version:
Format: text printout
Scale:
This assessment of the potential for disposal of CO2 in geological settings considers use in enhanced oil recovery, disposal in saline aquifers, storage in caverns in salt, and reaction with igneous rocks rich in magnesium and iron. Factors that limit the potential for disposal in saline aquifers include thickness of alluvial cover; nearness to faults; mineral, geothermal, and water resources; urban areas; and restricted land. The complete set of geographic information system files used in the analysis, including the above text file, are also available in a zip file format on a CD-ROM.
