Foreword
I congratulate the editors for a thorough review of the literature, as well as for their identification of gaps in the existing knowledge in the domain of geologic sequestration. Their contributions have helped bring out this fine volume. I take this opportunity to commend the contributions made by Prof. V. Vishal and Prof. T.N. Singh in the field of carbon storage. This book is unique in its presentation of geologic sequestration. It briefly introduces the concepts of carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) in its first chapter and systematically progresses into the potential geological sinks in subsequent chapters. The subdivision of the book into various sections helps the readers to identify the reservoir type of particular interest. Expert authors in each category of CO2 storage sites have contributed to the book. While detailed chapters on CO2 storage in deep saline aquifers and depleted hydrocarbon reserves give useful information, the authors have also described the risks associated under various scenarios in the concluding section of the book.
