URMC‑CAF: Coupled Accumulation Fronts in CCS Infrastructure and Geological Storage

The URMC-CAF framework is an interpretive engineering approach for analyzing long-horizon interaction between CCS infrastructure, geological storage systems, and marine environmental processes across decadal and centennial timescales. The work integrates publicly available scientific and engineering data related to: ship emissions, anodic corrosion, biocidal leaching, structural material degradation, dissolved CO₂ behavior, reactive transport, groundwater interaction, and dynamic permeability evolution. The objective of the framework is not predictive certainty or regulatory prescription, but structural interpretation of coupled environmental accumulation and interaction systems associated with large-scale CCS deployment. The preprint is intended for researchers, environmental analysts, engineers, regulators, and infrastructure stakeholders interested in long-horizon ecological interpretation and systemic environmental interaction within industrial decarbonization systems.
