Laboratory Flow Experiments for Visualizing Carbon Dioxide-Induced, Density-Driven Brine Convection

Injection of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) into saline aquifers confined by low- permeability cap rock will result in a layer of CO 2 overlying the brine. Dissolution of CO 2 into the brine increases the brine density, resulting in an unstable situation in which more-dense brine overlies less-dense brine....
