Abstract

The technology for CO 2 sequestration is developing fast and a lot of activity to launch pilot and demonstration projects in Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is taking place internationally. The technologies are large-scale and their sustainability is dependent on cost, reliability and acceptability. Geo-modeling has an important role to play in assessing the potential and feasibility. This paper describes recent developments in CCS technology, examines the various options for CO 2 fixation and the possible role of geo-modeling studies. We present issues and challenges in modeling and monitoring studies in CO 2 fixation and provide glimpses of current research in India. Future research needs are discussed.
