(a) A time series of CO2 bubbles at the junction of the microchannel. (b) Histograms of the initial diameter of CO2 bubbles. (c) Representative micrographs of CO2 bubbles near the outlet at the concentration of salinity (0%, 2%, 4%, 6%, 8%, 10%, 15%, and 30% NaCl). (d) Variations in size of CO2 bubbles near the outlet at different salinities. (e) A diagram of percent changes (%∆ = (Dfinal − Dinitial)/Dinitial × 100) in average diameter of CO2 bubbles and the graph of Henry’s constant () at different salinities.
