Abstract
This paper investigates the characteristics and the research trends of CO2 storage technologies in underground geological formations. The CO2 sequestration can divide into geological storage, ocean storage, and mineral carbonation in which the technical level of geological storage arrives at the commercialization. In detail, its components are an CO2-EOR(Enhanced Oil Recovery), ECBM(Enhanced Coal Bed Methane), a deep saline aquifer, and a depleted reservoir, respectively. The researches of disposal CO2 have focused on a monitoring, a leakage detection, and a storage capacity. On the other hand, CO2-EOR has been concentrated on reservoir characterization, history matching, and field-scaled flow simulation to improve the stranded oil productivity. ECBM remained at the laboratory experiments to verify its applicability. To obtain the reliable field applicability, the integrated approach are necessary coupled numerical analyses with experimental results.

이 논문에서는 이산화탄소 지중저장기술을 세분화하여 각 지중저장기술의 특징과 연구동향을 살펴보았다. 이산화탄소 처분기술은 지중저장, 해양저장, 광물 탄산염화 기술로 구분할 수 있으며, 이 가운데 지중저장기술의 성숙도가 가장 높다. 세부적으로 CO2-EOR(Enhanced Oil Recovery), ECBM(Enhanced Coal Bed Methane)등의 활용기술과 염대수층, 고갈 저류층에 저장하는 기술로 구분한다. CO2-EOR, 고갈 저류층 지중저장기술은 현재 실용화 단계이고 염대수층 지중저장과 ECBM은 실증단계이다. 염대수층과 고갈 저류층 저장연구는 누출 안정성 확보를 위한 모니터링 연구와 잠재 저장용량 평가를 중심으로 이루어지고 있다. CO2-EOR 분야에서는 저류층 특성화 기술, 히스토리 매칭, 유동 시뮬레이션을 이용한 경제성 평가와 이산화탄소 거동해석, 생산량 예측연구가 활발하며 ECBM 분야에서는 흡착, 팽윤현상 등 실험실 수준의 연구가 진행 중이다. 이산화탄소 지중저장 연구는 기존의 저장기술에서 활용기술로 변화하고 있다. 경제인자, 저류공학, 모델링, 실험 등의 통합분석을 통한 신뢰할 수 있는 각 지중저장에 특성화된 평가연구가 필요하다.
