Conference Presentation – World CCUS Conference 2025

New Findings to Improve CO2 Transport Safety

We’re pleased to share that fluidXlab, in collaboration with Pace CCS and Clausthal University of Technology, will present at the World CCUS Conference – a high-level international forum for carbon capture, utilisation and storage – taking place in Bergen, Norway this September.

Presentation Details

📄 Topic: ‘Experimental Determination of Triethylene Glycol (TEG) and Methanol Loss in Compressed CO₂’
🗓️ Date: Tuesday, 2 September 2025
🕒 Time: 14:10 – 14:30
📍 Track 3: CO₂ Transport
🎤 Speaker: Timur Zhainakov, fluidXlab GmbH

In this joint contribution, we present new high-pressure Vapor-Liquid Equilibrium (VLE) data for triethylene glycol (TEG) and methanol in CO₂, quantified via ¹H-NMR spectroscopy.

Our results show that common EoS models (CPA, PR) can underpredict impurity solubility by up to 30%, especially under pipeline-relevant conditions.

Pipelines

These deviations directly impact CO₂ transport design by increasing the risk of:
– Liquid dropout
– Foaming and corrosion
– Storage site contamination

The work provides a critical step towards data-driven model refinement for safer and more robust CCS infrastructure.
We look forward to engaging with the global CCS community in Bergen!
