CARBON CAPTURE AND STORAGE (CCS) IS A TECHnology being developed in an attempt to slow global warming. In theory, CCS would prevent carbon dioxide produced from coal-fired power plants from reaching the atmosphere by capturing and storing it permanently underground. The scale of this proposal is remarkable, requiring the capture of tens of billions of tons of carbon dioxide from thousands of co...

With the rapid development of national economy and increasing demand for energy, acceleration natural gas storage strategies, underground has become more important in China’s oil consumption energy safety. Underground salt cavern many advantages is very suitable peak shaving?However, most rocks China are layered beds, some beds deeply buried. This article introduces history deep technical chall...

An LPG filling station incident in Korea has been studied. The direct cause of the incident was concluded to be faulty joining of the couplings of the hoses during the butane unloading process from a tank lorry into an underground storage tank. The faulty connection of a hose to the tank lorry resulted in a massive leak of gas followed by catastrophic explosions. The leaking source was verified...

Underground energy storage is an important function of all supply systems, and especially concerning the seemingly eternal imbalance between production demand. Salt rock underground storage, for one, widely applied in both traditional renewable fields; this particular technique can be used to store natural gas, hydrogen, compressed air. However, resource diversification structural complexity ma...
