Joule II Project Paper: Safety of the underground disposal of carbon dioxide
The risks associated with the transport and injection of carbon dioxide are reasonably well understood and already borne in the USA. There is a remote possibility that CO2... -
UKCCSRC Call 2 Project: Investigating the radiative heat flux in small and...
Oxy-fuel combustion has been recognised as one of the very competitive technologies for CO2 capture in the power generation sector. Its importance for CCS technology development... -
UKCCSRC Call 1 Project: Tractable equations of state for CO2 mixtures in...
This project will tackle one of the key technical challenges facing the development of commercially viable CO2 transport networks: modelling the phase behaviour of impure carbon... -
Beryllium-10 (10Be) AMS data for different chemical procedures and metal...
Normalised accelerator mass spectrometry data from beryllium targets prepared using different chemical processes and metal matrices. Filenames include the date the AMS... -
QICS Paper: The use of scientific diving in support of a novel carbon...
Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a way of possibly reducing impacts from fossil fuel emissions by injecting large volumes of carbon dioxide into appropriate geological... -
QICS Paper: Small-scale modelling of physiochemical impacts of CO2 leaked...
A two-fluid, small scale numerical ocean model was developed to simulate plume dynamics and increases in water acidity due to leakages of CO2 from potential sub-seabed... -
QICS Paper: Perceptions of sub-seabed carbon dioxide storage in Scotland and...
The geological storage of carbon dioxide (CO2) offers notable potential, as part of larger carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) processes, to be a significant climate change... -
QICS Paper: Detection and impacts of leakage from sub-seafloor deep...
Fossil fuel power generation and other industrial emissions of carbon dioxide are a threat to global climate1, yet many economies will remain reliant on these technologies for... -

This layer of the GeoIndex shows the location of available 1:25000 scale digital geological maps within Great Britain. The Digital Geological Map of Great Britain project... -
QICS Paper: Phosphorus behavior in sediments during a sub-seabed CO2...
The CO2 controlled release experiment “Quantifying and Monitoring Potential Ecosystem Impacts of Geological Carbon Storage” (QICS) assessed the impacts of potential CO2 leakage... -
BGS 1:63 360 Old Series One-inch geological maps
These maps are based on the Ordnance Survey 'Old Series' One-Inch maps of England and Wales. They were the first 1:63 360 geological map series produced by the Geological Survey... -
BGS 1:250 000 Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) Series geological maps of...
The UTM series of maps are based on 1:250 000 base maps published by the Ordnance Survey. Mapping is divided into squares which cover 1 degree by 1 degree of latitude /... -
QICS Paper: Impact and recovery of pH in marine sediments subject to a...
A possible effect of a carbon dioxide leak from an industrial sub-sea floor storage facility, utilised for Carbon Capture and Storage, is that escaping carbon dioxide gas will... -
QICS paper: Effect of a controlled sub-seabed release of CO2 on...
Carbon capture and storage is a mitigation strategy that can be used to aid the reduction of anthropogenic CO2 emissions. This process aims to capture CO2 from large point-... -
