Summary The solubility of carbon dioxide (CO2) in underground saline formations is considered to offer significant long-term storage capability to effectively sequester large amounts of anthropogenic CO2. Unlike enhanced oil recovery (EOR), geosequestration relies on longer time scales and involves significantly greater volumes of CO2. Many geosequestration studies assume that the initial brine state is one containing no dissolved hydrocarbons and, therefore, apply simplistic two-component solubility models starting from a zero dissolved-gas state. Many brine formations near hydrocarbons, however, tend to be close to saturation by methane (CH4). The introduction of excess CO2 in such systems results in an extraction of the CH4 into the CO2-rich phase, which, in turn, has implications for monitoring of any sequestration project and offers the possibly additional CH4 mobilization and recovery.

A model of moisture movement in wood is presented in this paper in a two-dimensional-in-space formulation. The finite-difference technique has been used in order to obtain the solution of the problem. The model was applied to predict the moisture content in sawn boards from pine during long term storage under outdoor climatic conditions. The satisfactory agreement between the numerical solution and experimental data was obtained.

The introduction and active use of information transmission and storage systems in the Ministry of Defense (MoD) of Ukraine form the need to develop ways of guaranteed removal of data from media after their use or long-term storage. Such a task is an essential component of the functioning of any information security system. The article analyzes the problems of guaranteed destruction of information on magnetic media. An overview of approaches to the guaranteed destruction of information on magnetic media of different types is presented, and partial estimates of the effectiveness of their application are given by some generally accepted indicators of performance evaluation. The article also describes the classification of methods of destruction of information depending on the influence on its medium. The results of the analysis revealed the main problems of application of software methods and methods of demagnetization of the information carrier. The issue of guaranteed destruction of information from modern SSD devices, which are actively used in the formation of new systems of information accumulation and processing, became particularly relevant in the article. In today's conditions of development of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, methods of mechanical and thermal destruction are more commonly used today. In the medium term, the vector of the use of information elimination methods will change towards the methods of physical impact by the pulsed magnetic field and the software methods that allow to store the information storage device, but this today requires specialists to develop new ways of protecting information in order to avoid its leakage.
