TIME₄CO₂ - Unlocking maximal geological CO₂ storage through experimentally validated mathematical modeling of dissolution and convective mixing
Interdisciplinary research bridging modelling, simulation, and experiments.
About the research project
Objective
As part of TIME₄CO₂, we will conduct dedicated meter-scale CO₂ storage experiments in the FluidFlower studying convective mixing in complex media, analyzed by our DarSIA image analysis toolbox, to finally improve simulation methodology.
