Reactive Transport in Subsurface Systems: Recent Advances in Experiment, Simulation and Theory
Session ID#: 252162
Session Description:
Reactive transport in porous media has far reaching implications to a broad range of applications and subsurface processes, such as CO2 sequestration, hydrocarbon production, and underground contaminant transport. Practical applications have emphasized the need for a fundamental understanding of the physical and chemical processes (i.e., precipitation, dissolution, geochemical reactions, fracture clogging, etc.) occurring at various scales. Mechanistic understanding of (i) how multiple processes are coupled with each other, and (ii) how small-scale fluid-solid interaction translates to larger scale is crucial for establishing predictive models at macroscopic scale. Recent advances in experimental, numerical, and theoretical paradigms have greatly helped to elucidate the coupling between hydrodynamics, reactive transport, and topology from nano to field scales. This session invites submissions that use experimental, computational and/or theoretical approaches to address multi-scale reactive transport processes in porous and fractured media. Results that unveil the strong interplay between multiple processes at different scales are especially welcome.
