To validate the simulation model with the experimental results, the major source of uncertainty comes from the mineral reaction kinetic parameters including kinetic constants at 25℃, activation energy, and reactive surface area. The mineral reaction kinetic parameters of the major primary and secondary minerals were obtained by adjusting the aqueous pH of the model to fit the experimental results; these are listed in Table 1.To accelerate the ­CO2-rock reaction rate, the experiments is conventionally conducted at stirring condition which will enhance the gaseous and aqueous diffusion rate, but not impact the ______ reaction kinetics.

As a result, the aqueous diffusion coefficient was enhanced into two orders of magnitude larger than the 7.5 × ­10−9 ­m2/s (Cadogan et al 2014).Field‑scale model establishment It was mentioned previously that the fourth lava flow of the eastern Deccan basalt shows columnar and jointed structures and the uppermost part of which is highly vesicular which can provide structural pathways for ­______.The forth lava flow was selected as the target ­______ storage site. Because some of the specific properties related to ­______ storage efficiency are not available for this formation, some approximate data were employed.
