Abstract

The CO 2 uptake capacity of seawater and the corresponding increase in seawater density are given. A steady-state turbulent plume model is used to study the behaviour of sinking CO 2 water on a sloping bottom. A mass transfer model is developed in order to obtain estimates of the dissolution rates of ascending CO 2 bubbles in seawater. The plume and mass transfer models are used to examine the possibility of injection of anthropogenic CO 2 in the uppermost 200 to 400 metres of the ocean.
