摘要:

干热岩资源分布广泛、储量巨大,被认为是具有广阔发展前景的绿色能源之一,而增强型地热系统(EGS)是开采干热岩资源的主要技术方法。在CO2-EGS中,超临界CO2(ScCO2)作为取热工质可以减少水资源浪费、降低泵送能量消耗,比H2O具有更高的传热效率,并且可以实现部分CO2的地质封存,具有较大的发展前景。本文从EGS裂隙储层模型、CO2的物理性质,以及CO2在储层裂隙中的流动与传热特性3个方面,总结了CO2-EGS储层换热技术的研究进展,并针对我国典型地热场地的实际应用提出了建议。结果表明,裂隙性多孔介质模型更为实用和高效,而局部非热平衡模型更符合实际情况。CO2具有较高质量流率和较轻微的矿物溶解能力,其矿化封存可降低地震风险,但会使储层的渗透率下降,建议调整主裂缝的非接触面积或CO2的注入参数以减少渗透率的降低。未来应深入研究CO2的非达西流动特性,并探究CO2在共和与松辽盆地储层中的损失问题以及福建漳州凝灰岩盖层对CO2的封存能力。

Abstract:

Hot dry rock (HDR) resources with large reserves are widely distributed. HDR is considered one of the sources of green energy with a broad development prospect, and the enhanced geothermal systems (EGS) is the main technology to mine HDR resources. In CO2-EGS, supercritical CO2 (ScCO2) used as a working fluid for heat extraction can reduce water and energy consumption in pumping. ScCO2 is a better (higher efficiency) heat transfer fluid than H2O and can be used for geological storage of partial CO2, which has a large development prospect. This paper summarizes recent research progres on heat transfer techniques used in CO2-EGS from three aspects: reservoir fracture models for EGS, physical properties of CO2, and flow and heat transfer properties of CO2 in reservoir fractures. Suggestions on practical application at typical geothermal sites in China are presented. The fracture model based on fractured, porous medium is more practical and efficient, and the local thermal non-equilibrium model is more accurate. CO2 has a high mass flow rate and low mineral dissolution capability, and CO2 mineralization and storage in EGS can reduce seismic risk. However, it will decrease the permeability of the reservoir, and it is recommended to adjust the non-contact area of the main fracture or the CO2 injection parameter to minimize the permeability decrease. In the future, the non-Darcy flow properties of CO2 should be further investigated. When exploring the practical application of CO2-EGS in the Gonghe and Songliao Basins, the loss of CO2 in the reservoirs should be considered, and the sealing performance of the tuff caprock in Zhangzhou, Fujian Province should be evaluated.
