Laboratory-scale study on the swelling behaviour of coal due to CO2 injection

[en] Sorption- and stress-induced coal permeability alteration may occur considering injection of carbon dioxide in coal seams for CCS. To take into account properly these phenomena, a microscale model was developed for the modelling of injection experiments carried out in laboratory. This work presents this model and first experimental results obtained from an injection test. © 2018 European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers, EAGE. All rights reserved.
