  • The brine resource in the Qianjiang depression in Jianghan basin is rich in the brine resource because alternating deposits of gypsum mudstone, mudstone as well as sandstone of Qianjiang Formation form the potential sites for CO2 geological storage. However, the salinity in Qianjiang Formation is very high with the average value up to 283.25 g/L. The purpose of this study is to investigate the physical and chemical responses under the condition of high salinity. The results show that the CO2 dissolved in brine and sequestered in minerals decline significantly as a result of directly injecting CO2 into the brine with high salinity, which may affect the storage safety. Moreover, high salinity will lead to serious salt precipitation around the injection well which may reduce the injectivity. High salinity can also cause the high pressure build up around the injection well. The method of CO2 injection combined with brine production can effectively mitigate the severe pressure build up and salt precipitation. In this way, we can maximize the utilization of brine resource and the underground space and achieve both the econimic benifits and the environmental benefits.
