What is Microscopic Flow of CO2 in Complex Pore Structures: A Recent 10-Year Review about?

To prevent CO2 leakage and ensure the safety of long-term CO2 storage, it is essential to investigate the flow mechanism of CO2 in complex pore structures at the pore scale. This study focused on reviewing the experimental, theoretical, and numerical simulation studies on the microscopic flow of CO2 in complex pore structures during the last decade. For example, advanced imaging techniques, such as X-ray computed tomography (CT) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), have been used to reconstruct the complex pore structures of rocks. Mathematical methods, such as Darcy’s law, the Young–Laplace law, and the Navier-Stokes equation, have been used to describe the microscopic flow of CO2. Numerical methods, such as the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) and pore network (PN) model, have been used for numerical simulations. The application of these experimental and theoretical models and numerical simulation studies is discussed, considering the effect of complex pore structures. Finally, future research is suggested to focus on the following.
