Upscaling geochemical reaction rates using pore-scale network modeling
Geochemical reaction rate laws are often measured using crushed minerals in well-mixed laboratory systems that are designed to eliminate mass transport limitations. Such rate laws are often used directly in reactive transport models to predict the reaction and transport of chemical species in consolidated porous media found in subsurface environments. Due to the inherent heterogeneities of poro...
متن کاملPore-scale characterization of biogeochemical controls on iron and uranium speciation under flow conditions.
Etched silicon microfluidic pore network models (micromodels) with controlled chemical and redox gradients, mineralogy, and microbiology under continuous flow conditions are used for the incremental development of complex microenvironments that simulate subsurface conditions. We demonstrate the colonization of micromodel pore spaces by an anaerobic Fe(III)-reducing bacterial species (Geobacter ...
متن کاملPore-scale controls on calcite dissolution rates from flow-through laboratory and numerical experiments.
A combination of experimental, imaging, and modeling techniques were applied to investigate the pore-scale transport and surface reaction controls on calcite dissolution under elevated pCO2 conditions. The laboratory experiment consisted of the injection of a solution at 4 bar pCO2 into a capillary tube packed with crushed calcite. A high resolution pore-scale numerical model was used to simula...
متن کاملEvaluating Effective Reaction Rates of Kinetically Driven Solutes in Large-scale, Statistically Anisotropic Media: Implications of Pore Scale Mixing and Preferential Flow Pathways at the Field Scale
The role of high and low hydraulic conductivity (K) regions in heterogeneous flow fields with varying degrees of stratification and the subsequent effect of rate-dependent geochemical reactions is investigated. An example contamination scenario is used to to investigate potential impacts of kinetic sorption and local dispersion on plume migration and channeling. In this study, kinetic sorption ...
متن کاملPore scale analysis of the impact of mixing-induced reaction dependent viscosity variations
Expanding interest in enhanced subsurface natural resource recovery and carbon sequestration motivates study of reacting flows in porous media. In this work, we examine the case of reaction products that increase or decrease the viscosity of the fluid. Parallel reactant streams flow through porous media and react transversely along the centerline. We utilize a pore scale, finite element numeric...
