    Experimental Study and Kinetic Modeling of High Temperature and Pressure Co2 Mineralization
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2024) Berndsen, Maximilian; Erol, Selcuk; Akin, Taylan; Akin, Serhat; Nardini, Isabella; Immenhauser, Adrian; Nehler, Mathias
    The potential for in-situ CO2 sequestration was analyzed experimentally for one basaltic hyaloclastite sample from the Nesjavellir geothermal reservoir in Iceland and three metasedimentary rock samples from the K & imath;z & imath;ldere geothermal field in Turkey. Based on batch reaction experiments, this paper demonstrates the interaction between a CO2 gas-charged fluid and rock samples from these reservoirs. The experiments were conducted at 260 degrees C and 0.8 MPa, and 105 degrees C and 17 MPa for the basaltic and metasedimentary rocks, respectively. The experimental results indicate that CO2 sequestration within the glassy basaltic rocks is hampered by zeolite, chlorite, and anhydrite, which compete with carbonate minerals to uptake divalent cations at the P-T conditions applied. In contrast, the carbonation process for the metasedimentary rocks is inhibited by their mineralogical composition. Generally, these rocks are less reactive and provide an insufficient supply of divalent cations. The batch reactor experiments were numerically simulated with the PHREEQC geochemical modeling program. The simulations indicate that CO2 sequestration is feasible at the tested P-T conditions, provided that silicate and SO4 mineralization is suppressed for the basaltic rocks and that there is an effective source of divalent cations for the metasedimentary rocks.

    Hydrogeochemical and Hydrogeological Investigation of the Can Geothermal Field
    (TMMOB Jeoloji Mühendisleri Odası, 2010) Deniz, Ozan; Baba, Alper; Tarcan, Gultekin
    The Can Geothermal Field is located on a central part of the Biga Peninsula in northwest Turkey. Volcanics are the dominant rock type in this region. Alteration zones and clay minerals are very common in these rocks. Sedimentary rocks, low-grade metamorphics and alluvium are other geological units observed around Can. These units include common fracture zones because of the tectonic activity in the region. Thermal waters have reached the surface via these fracture zones. Alluvium is the most productive aquifer in all geological units. Wells drilled in this unit yield between 5-30 L/s. The transmissibility and permeability coefficients of this unit are of 50-421 m(2)/day and of 1.01-16.8 m/day, respectively. In this aquifer, groundwater depth changes between 0.1 and 8.3m. According to the IAH (1979) water classification, these thermal waters are of the Na-Ca-SO4 type, the cold waters are of the Ca-Mg-HCO3 type and the snow samples are of a mixed water type. Geothermal waters have a meteoric origin. The mean temperature, electrical conductivity and pH of the thermal waters have values of 44.4 degrees C, 2941 mu S/cm and 6.9, respectively. Geothermometer equations were used for prediction of reservoir fluid temperatures of the geothermal system and temperature values were obtained between 46 and 203 degrees C. delta D, delta T and delta O-18 isotope analysis showes that thermal waters in the Can region have a meteoric origin and are a minimum of 45-50 years old.
