Abstract

Global warming and climate change have been linked to man-induced carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions due to the correlation between raised global surface temperatures and increased ambient CO₂ concentrations during the last century. The man-made CO₂ emissions are primarily from burning of fossil fuels for energy production and transportation. To limit the emissions, CO₂ sequestration has been applied to inject CO₂ into various deep surface formations after capturing CO₂ from the flue gases. The topic of transport through porous media in this chapter is to summarize investigations of migration of CO₂ after sequestration, gas transport through coal particles during oxy-combustion, and oxygen transport in membranes during air separation. A general mechanism has been provided first in the introduction to briefly explain transport through porous media. The following sections, respectively, include a general review of recent literatures on the subjects of CO₂ migration after sequestration, CO₂-oxygen transport in oxy-combustion, and oxygen transport in membrane at high temperatures. Understanding the fundamental mechanisms and processes of the transport through porous media allows mathematical models to be used to evaluate and optimize the performance and design of these systems.
