The salt layer, characterized by its low permeability and excellent damage self-healing properties, is an ideal geological body for CO2 storage. However, the relatively high of mudstone interlayers may reduce safety long-term storage in bedded caverns. This study establishes a thermal–hydraulic–mechanical (THM) coupled physical mathematical model Huaian cavern, analyzes factors affecting flow behavior, proposes measures to enhance results indicate that both layers influenced stress-induced deformation within cavern. From cavern edge simulation boundary, volume strain exhibit trend rapid decline, followed gradual increase, eventual stabilization or slight reduction. seepage velocity, pore pressure, distance interlayer are significantly higher than those leading migration along interfaces between layer. With increase time, gradually decreases, while layer shows general tendency increase. elevated pressure reduces interlayer, increasing enhances velocity layers. To caverns, it recommended minimize presence during site selection construction, optimize strengthen monitoring systems potential leakage.

Underground salt cavern CO2 storage (SCCS) offers the dual benefits of enabling extensive and facilitating utilization resources while contributing regulation carbon market. Its economic operational advantages over traditional capture, utilization, (CCUS) projects make SCCS a more cost-effective flexible option. Despite widespread use caverns for storing various substances, differences exist between energy in terms gas-tightness, injection, brine extraction control, long-term stability, site selection criteria. These distinctions stem from unique phase change characteristics application scenarios SCCS. Therefore, targeted forward-looking scientific research on is imperative. This paper introduces implementation principles SCCS, emphasizing its connections with emissions, renewable peak shaving. It delves into compared other CCUS methods, addresses associated challenges. In this paper, we establish pressure equation injection extraction, that considers CO2, analyze during injection. By comparing viscosities gases, SCCS's excellent sealing performance demonstrated. Building this, develop stability evaluation model indices, which impact speed minimum operating stability. Field countermeasures to ensure are proposed. Site criteria established, preliminary mine sites suitable identified China, an initial estimate achievable scale China made at 51.8–77.7 million tons, utilizing only 20%–30% volume abandoned caverns. key engineering challenges facing determines crucial technical parameters, such as pressure, burial depth, scale, it essential guidance implementing China.
