Corrosion in CO2 Capture, Transportation, Geological Utilization and Storage (eBook)

This book systematically discusses the operational stages with high risk of CO2-induced corrosion in CCUS projects, and related measures for corrosion control. CO2 capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) is a key technology to mitigate climate change and substantially reduce greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuels. CCUS deals with high concentration CO2, which is very corrosive in a humid environment. Therefore, it is very important to characterize, monitor, and mitigate CO2-induced corrosion in all processes of the CCUS operation chain. Some corrosion control techniques included in this book (e.g., CO2-resisting wellbore cement additives) are beneficial for corrosion control research and engineering practices. This book belongs to the field of corrosion science and engineering, and the expected readership is researchers and engineers working on CCUS. 

Liwei Zhang got his M.S. degree from Duke University in 2010 and his Ph.D. degree from Carnegie Mellon University in 2013. From 2013 to 2017, he worked as a postdoctoral research associate at National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL). In July 2017, he was recruited by Institute of Rock and Soil Mechanics (IRSM), Chinese Academy of Sciences as a full professor. Prof. Liwei Zhang's research has been focused on experimental and numerical studies on CO2-related reactive transport in porous media. Specific research areas include CO2-induced wellbore cement and casing corrosion, subsurface mineral dissolution and precipitation under geologic carbon storage conditions, and leaching behavior of metal ions from ores and fly ash induced by high concentration CO2. His research activities have resulted in one book, 5 book chapters and more than 100 journal articles and conference proceedings.
