Prediction of reactive transport in porous media remains challenging when pore scale incomplete mixing is at play. Previous experimental studies investigated chemical reactions in porous media by visualizing reaction product or reactants…
A new upscaling procedure that provides 1D representations of 2D mixing-limited reactive transport systems is developed and applied. A key complication with upscaled models in this setting is that the procedure must differentiate between…
We study the pore-scale transport of a conservative scalar forming an advancing mixing front, which can be re-interpreted to predict instantaneous mixing-limited bimolecular reactions. We investigate this using a set of two-dimensional,…
Under steady flow conditions, the topological complexity inherent to all random 3D porous media imparts complicated flow and transport dynamics. It has been established that this complexity generates persistent chaotic advection via a…
The macroscopic spreading and mixing of solute plumes in saturated porous media is ultimately controlled by processes operating at the pore scale. Whilst the conventional picture of pore-scale mechanical dispersion and molecular diffusion…
The simultaneous presence of liquid and gas in porous media increases flow heterogeneity compared to saturated flows. However, so far the impact of saturation on flow statistics and transport dynamics remained unclear. Here, we develop a…
We propose a three-component reaction-diffusion system yielding an asymptotic logarithmic time-dependence for a moving interface. This is naturally related to a Stefan-problem for which both one-sided Dirichlet-type and von Neumann-type…
Non-uniform product (color) distribution in colorimetric paper-based sensors affects the accuracy and reliability of measurements. The underlying mechanisms responsible for this are still unclear. The coffee ring effect explains the…
As a typical multiphase fluid flow process, drainage in porous media is of fundamental interest in nature and industrial applications. During drainage processes in unsaturated soils and porous media in general, saturated clusters, in which…
Mineral dissolution in porous media is classically partitioned into static regimes within the Pe-Da plane, but this framework fails to capture the dissolution behavior of structurally complex rocks. Using three-dimensional micro-continuum…
Phase-separated liquid condensates can spatially organize and thereby regulate chemical processes. However, the physicochemical mechanisms underlying such regulation remain elusive as the intramolecular interactions responsible for phase…
We analyze experimentally chemical waves propagation in the disordered flow field of a porous medium. The reaction fronts travel at a constant velocity which drastically depends on the mean flow direction and rate. The fronts may propagate…
We present an effective stochastic advection-diffusion-reaction (SADR) model that explains incomplete mixing typically observed in transport with bimolecular reactions. Unlike traditional advection-dispersion-reaction models, the SADR model…
A change of solute dispersion regime with the flow velocity has been studied both at the macroscopic and pore scales in a transparent array of capillary channels using an optical technique allowing for simultaneous local and global…
In this study, we develop a saturation-dependent treatment of dispersion in porous media using concepts from critical path analysis, cluster statistics of percolation, and fractal scaling of percolation clusters. We calculate spatial solute…
Transport in multiphase flow through porous media plays a central role in many biological, geological, and engineered systems. Here, we use numerical simulations of transport in immiscible two-phase flow to investigate dispersion in…
A multi-phase-field model for the description of the discontinuous precipitation reaction is formulated which takes into account surface diffusion along grain boundaries and interfaces as well as volume diffusion. Simulations reveal that…
We investigate two-phase flow in porous media and derive a two-scale model, which incorporates pore-scale phase distribution and surface tension into the effective behavior at the larger Darcy scale. The free-boundary problem at the pore…
The effective mixing behavior of solutes in porous media is fundamentally connected to the development of a local mixing interface between the two initial solutions, which is characterized by a complex lamellar structure. The deformation of…
Imbibition, the displacement of a nonwetting fluid by a wetting fluid, plays a central role in diverse energy, environmental, and industrial processes. While this process is typically studied in homogeneous porous media with uniform…
