Dissolution behavior of liquid CO2 droplets released at the intermediate depth in the East Sea and the Clipperton Clarion

Calculations for the dissolution behavior of liquid CO2 droplets released in the East Sea and the Clipperton Clarion from a moving ship and a fixed pipeline have been carried out in order to estimate the CO2 dissolution characteristics in the ocean. The results show that the injection of liquid CO2 from a moving ship in a high temperature point is an effective method for dissolution. Also, it is noted that the ultimate plume generated from CO2 bubbles repeats expansion and shrinking due to the peeling from a fixed pipeline, and the presence of hydrate layer on a liquid CO2 droplet acts as a resistant layer in dissolving liquid CO2.
