• Patches are correlated with packer locations and high-Patches are correlated with packer locations and highelevation regions in each zone in the soil material.
• With more packers (i.e., more zones), there are still early breakthroughs but overall emission is less patchy.
• Therefore, simulations support the hypothesis that along-pipe flo of CO p ards ithin each one leads to an

pipe flow of CO2 upwards within each zone leads to an effective point-source release that creates a persistent patchy emission.

BackgroundFrom demonstration projects to sequestration deployment: Storage considered as an acceptable option for mitigation of climate change.By 2012, 3 projects for storage in saline aquifers > 5MT CO2 /Y,
/4 projects > 0.5 MT CO2 /Y
Regulatory framework:EU legislation passed December 2008 to be derived state by stateEU legislation passed December 2008, to be derived state by stateMonitoring, Reporting and Accounting protocols are under development.
However the issue of leakagemust be well addressed :However, the issue of leakagemust be well addressed :Safety: Minimize the Health, Safety & Environmental risk Mitigation and early remediationPublic acceptance: credibility of geological storage challengedAccounting: if leakage occurs, emission credits must be surrendered and the site stabilized (EU)
Crucially needed: validated monitoring system for leakagey g y gCurrently: no means to assess such technologies.

CO2 impact study on shallow groundwater Electric Power Research Institute, LLNL
• Scope of Work– Simulate CO2 intrusion into USDW– Observe effects in the field– Model experiment Plant Daniel Test Sitep
• Purpose of StudyAddress stakeholder concerns– Address stakeholder concerns
– Identify indicator parameters– Understand abatement options
Lab studies and modeling suggests that CO2 intrusion into aquifers may mobilize naturally-occurring metals and compromising quality of water. Field pilot projects provide field test-occurring metals and compromising quality of water. Field pilot projects provide field test
beds to understand the reality of this issue.
