Technical course II: Geologic Carbon Storage Modelling

Objective: To give an overview of geologic carbon storage in deep saline formations, explain the fundamentals of modelling coupled processes and learn to use a numerical code with hands-on practices.

Programme: Overview of geologic carbon storage in deep saline formations and the coupled processes resulting from CO2 injection; description of estimation methods for CO2 storage capacity; review of basic laws and THM balance equations; mechanical behaviour of unsaturated geomaterials; description of boundary conditions; practical sessions to learn the THM code Code_Bright through tutorials; industrial case studies.

 

Professional course I: Dissemination of results

Objective: To address the dissemination of results to the scientific community (including multidisciplinary aspects), to the industry, to end-users and the general public. The course will explain how to tailor the communication taking into account the target audience.

Programme: Introduction to dissemination of results; dissemination through scientific journals; how to write scientific papers; dissemination through popular publications; dissemination through newspapers; dissemination through posters; dissemination through internet; dissemination through social media.
