A method and system for feeding liquefied carbon-dioxide gas into the ground, by which liquefied carbon-dioxide gas can be efficiently permeated and diffused in a deep aquifer. The disclosed method for feeding liquefied carbon-dioxide gas into the ground includes the following steps:using a pumping well to pump up water from a deep aquifer to aboveground; creating injection water; applying pulsatile hydraulic pressure to the injection water; feeding the injection water to which pulsatile hydraulic pressure has been applied into the deep aquifer via an injection well; feeding liquefied carbon-dioxide gas&#x2014;while maintaining carbon-dioxide gas in a liquefied condition&#x2014;from a storage tank into the injection well to a depth having such pressure and temperature in which the liquefied condition can be maintained; mixing the liquefied carbon-dioxide gas&#x2014;in the form of fine droplets&#x2014;with the injection water, thereby generating a mixture of those two liquids.

The present invention provides a system for treating carbon dioxide, and a method by which such treated carbon dioxide can be stored underground at low cost and with high efficiency. The present invention' method for storing carbon dioxide underground includes: a step for pumping up to the ground groundwater from a pumping well in a deep aquifer, and then producing injection water. Carbon dioxide that has been separated and recovered from exhaust gas from a plant facility is changed into the bubbles. The bubbles are mixed with the injection water, and hereby produces a gas-liquid mixture a step for injecting into. The deep aquifer is injected into the gas-liquid mixture from the injection well. The method preferably further includes a step for dissolving a cation-forming material in the injection water, and a step for injecting the injection water, in which the cation-forming material is dissolved, into the deep acquifer at its top and above the place at which injection water has already been injected.

System for treating carbon dioxide, and method for storing such treated carbon dioxide underground

This invention aims to provide a gas-hydrate extracting device and method whereby a high-performance jet fluid is injected from a nozzle at the tip of an extraction pipe inserted into a gas-hydrate stratum, and whereby said jet fluid breaks said stratum so as to form a gas-hydrate mixed fluid that is transferred to surface of the earth, and whereby the void resulting from the removal of said gas hydrate is filled with the components of said high-performance jet fluid and a void-refilling fluid.

A method and apparatus for recognizing a Korean character to be assembled from an inputted Korean alphabet row and an apparatus therefor includes, in the method the steps of judging whether an inputted Korean alphabet row is monoconsonants or double consonants among consonants and judging whether it is horizontal vowels or vertical vowels among vowels, and assembling a Korean character on the basis of a judgement as to whether any combination of monoconsonants is possible or any combination of horizontal vowels and vertical vowels is possible and a judgement as to whether any double consonant can be arranged as the final consonant in conformity with the assembled status of the Korean alphabet row previously inputted. Moreover, the apparatus performs all of the above judgement processing and of processings following the respective judgement processings, and processes the above recognition processing by making use of a hardware interrupt and software interrupt for each key input of the individual Korean alphabet rows.
