Abstract

Global warming issues due to the $CO_2$(Carbon Dioxide) become increasing since the Industrial Revolution. After the Kyoto protocol at 1997, nations which have the prearranged quota drives their national project for the reduction of $CO_2$. Korean Government start to the related big projects in the view of three concepts which have consist of the $CO_2$ exhaust reduction on land, $CO_2$ capture and $CO_2$ storage. Furthermore, the storage method putting into depleted region underground is accepted by the London Convention while the ocean diluted method discharging the liquid $CO_2$ into the deep ocean using the long pipe which is towed by the surface vessel is underway for the research steps which means that there are many potentials for the R&Ds that need for the breakthrough. In this paper, the role and example of the Computational Fluid Dynamics for the feasibility study of the $CO_2$ ocean sequestration is mentioned.
