Abstract

The CO2SINK (CO2 Storage by Injection into a Natural saline aquifer at Ketzin) integrated project aims to advance the understanding of the science and practical processes involved in underground storage of CO2 to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere. The consortium running this EU project consists of 18 partners from universities, research institutes and industry out of 9 European countries (www.co2sink.org). It is the first demonstration project for large scale on-shore CO2 storage in Europe. The storage site near the town of Ketzin, close to Berlin in Germany, includes industrial land and infrastructure which make it suitable as a testing site for underground injection of CO2 into a deep saline aquifer.
