Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) has been widely recognized as a crucial path towards achieving a large cut in CO2 emissions in industries such as power, steel, cement, etc. Technological developments and innovation are a fundamental driving force towards advances in CCUS, and emerging technologies such as direct air capture (DAC), CO2-enhanced water recovery (CO2-EWR), etc., are helping achieve this. This Special Issue offers a forum to solicit articles communicating state-of-the-art research with a focus on emerging technologies aiming to advance the development of CCUS.

In the present study, an immersion experiment was carried out to examine how N80 steel corrodes when exposed to formation water containing dissolved CO2 and supercritical CO2 (Sc-CO2) along with water vapor. We employed electrochemical and surface analysis methods to examine the influence of various factors, including the temperature and duration of immersion, on the extent of corrosion. The results show that the corrosion patterns of N80 steel in a supercritical CO2 environment and CO2-saturated formation water differed significantly. The presence of similar corrosion features was suggested by the constant structure of the corrosion products identified in the formation water. However, the morphology of the corrosion product was complex in the supercritical CO2 environment, exhibiting features of pitting and localized corrosion. Furthermore, a non-linear trend in the corrosion rate was observed between 40 °C and 120 °C. Specifically, the rate of corrosion declined from 40 °C to 80 °C, but it then resumed its growth from 80 °C to 120 °C. These findings suggest that very high temperatures could lead to the destruction of corrosion products and subsequently enhance the corrosion process. Full article
