Book excerpt: Reactive Transport Models (RTMs) provide quantitative tools to analyze the interaction between transport and biogeochemical processes in subsurface environments such as aquatic sediments and groundwater flow. A tremendous amount of research has shown the role and impact of scaling behavior of the reactive systems which stems from geologic heterogeneity. Depending on the kinetics of the reactions, different types of formulations have been proposed to describe reactions in RTMs. We introduce a novel quantitative criteria on the range of validity of local equilibrium assumption (LEA) in aquatic sediments with irreversible heterogeneous sorption reactions. Then we present a one-dimensional (1-D) early diagenetic module, MATSEDLAB, developed in MATLAB. The module provides templates for representing the reaction network, boundary conditions and transport regime, which the user can modify to fit the particular early diagenetic model configuration of interest. We describe the theoretical background of the model and introduce the MATLAB pdepe solver, followed by calibration and validation of the model by a number of theoretical and empirical applications. Finally, we introduce a new pore-scale model using lattice Boltzmann (LB) approach. It uses an iterative scheme for the chemical transport-reaction part and recent advances in the development of optimal advection-diffusion solvers within the lattice Boltzmann method framework. We present results for the dissolution and precipitation of a porous medium under different dynamical conditions, varying reaction rates and the ratio of advective to diffusive transport (Pe, Peclet number) for linear reactions. The final set of calculations considers sorption reactions on a heterogeneous porous medium. We use our model to investigate the effect of heterogeneity on the pore-scale distribution of sorption sites and the competition between three different sorption reactions.

This book was released on 2020-03-04 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Open system behavior is predicated on a fundamental relationship between the timescale over which mass is transported and the timescale over which it is chemically transformed. This relationship describes the basis for the multidisciplinary field of reactive transport (RT). In the 20 years since publication of Review in Mineralogy and Geochemistry volume 34: Reactive Transport in Porous Media, RT principles have expanded beyond early applications largely based in contaminant hydrology to become broadly utilized throughout the Earth Sciences. RT is now employed to address a wide variety of natural and engineered systems across diverse spatial and temporal scales, in tandem with advances in computational capability, quantitative imaging and reactive interface characterization techniques. The present volume reviews the diversity of reactive transport applications developed over the past 20 years, ranging from the understanding of basic processes at the nano- to micrometer scale to the prediction of Earth global cycling processes at the watershed scale. Key areas of RT development are highlighted to continue advancing our capabilities to predict mass and energy transfer in natural and engineered systems.

Book excerpt: This research-based book provides a mathematical approach based on stochastic calculus which describes state-of-the-art information regarding porous media science and engineering - prediction of dispersivity from covariance of hydraulic conductivity (velocity). The complication is of great significance for tracer examination, for improved recovery by injection of miscible gases, etc. The book elucidates a generalized mathematical model and efficient numerical methodologies that may greatly affect the stochastic porous media hydrodynamics. It begins with a descriptive basic analysis of the complication of scale dependence of the dispersion coefficient in porous media. Furthermore, relevant topics of stochastic calculus which would be helpful in modeling are discussed subsequently. An in-depth elaborative discussion regarding the development of a generalized stochastic solute transport model for any provided velocity covariance without conferring to fickian expectations from laboratory scale to field scale is also illustrated in this book. The mathematical approaches described in this book will serve as useful solutions for several other complications associated with chemical dispersion in porous media.

Download or read book Geologic Carbon Sequestration written by V. Vishal and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-05-11 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This exclusive compilation written by eminent experts from more than ten countries, outlines the processes and methods for geologic sequestration in different sinks. It discusses and highlights the details of individual storage types, including recent advances in the science and technology of carbon storage. The topic is of immense interest to geoscientists, reservoir engineers, environmentalists and researchers from the scientific and industrial communities working on the methodologies for carbon dioxide storage. Increasing concentrations of anthropogenic carbon dioxide in the atmosphere are often held responsible for the rising temperature of the globe. Geologic sequestration prevents atmospheric release of the waste greenhouse gases by storing them underground for geologically significant periods of time. The book addresses the need for an understanding of carbon reservoir characteristics and behavior. Other book volumes on carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) attempt to cover the entire process of CCUS, but the topic of geologic sequestration is not discussed in detail. This book focuses on the recent trends and up-to-date information on different storage rock types, ranging from deep saline aquifers to coal to basaltic formations.

Download or read book Scale-up of Reactive Processes in Heterogeneous Media written by Harpreet Singh and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physical and chemical heterogeneities cause the porous media transport parameters to vary with scale, and between these two types of heterogeneities geological heterogeneity is considered to be the most important source of scale-dependence of transport parameters. Subsurface processes associated with chemical alterations result in changing reservoir properties with interlinked spatial and temporal scale, and there is uncertainty in the evolution of those properties and the chemical processes. This dissertation provides a framework and procedures to quantify the spatiotemporal scaling characteristics of reservoir attributes and transport processes in heterogeneous media accounting for chemical alterations in the reservoir. Conventional flow scaling groups were used to assess their applicability in scaling of recovery and Mixing Zone Length (MZL) in presence of chemical reactivity and permeability heterogeneity through numerical simulations of CO2 injection. It was found out that these scaling groups are not adequate enough to capture the scaling of recovery and transport parameters in the combined presence of chemical reactivity and physical heterogeneity. In this illustrative example, MZL was investigated as a function of spatial scale, temporal scale, multi-scale heterogeneity, and chemical reactivity; key conclusions are that 1) the scaling characteristics of MZL distinctly differ for low permeability and high permeability media, 2) heterogeneous media with spatial arrangements of both high and low permeability regions exhibit scaling characteristics of both high and low permeability media, 3) reactions affect scaling characteristics of MZL in heterogeneous media, 4) a simple rescaling can combine various MZL curves by merging them into a single MZL curve irrespective of the correlation length of heterogeneity, and 5) estimates of MZL (and consequently predictions of oil recovery) will fluctuate corresponding to displacements in a permeable medium whose lateral length is smaller than the correlation length of geological formation. We illustrate and extend the procedure of estimating Representative Elementary Volume (REV) to include temporal scale by coupling it with spatial scale. The current practice is to perform spatial averaging of attributes and account for residual variability by calibration and history matching. This results in poor predictions of future reservoir performance. The proposed semi-analytical technique to scale-up in both space and time provides guidance for selection of spatial and temporal discretizations that takes into account the uncertainties due to sub-processes. Finally, a probabilistic particle tracking (PT) approach is proposed to scale-up flow and transport of diffusion-reaction (DR) processes while addressing multi-scale and multi-physics nature of DR mechanisms and also maintaining consistent reservoir heterogeneity at different levels of scales. This multi-scale modeling uses a hierarchical approach which is based on passing the macroscopic subsurface heterogeneity down to the finer scales and then returning more accurate reactive flow response. This PT method can quantify the impact of reservoir heterogeneity and its uncertainties on statistical properties such as reaction surface area and MZL, at various scales.

This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In spite of many years of intensive study, our current abilities to quantify and predict contaminant migration in natural geological formations remain severely limited. The heterogeneity of these formations over a wide range of scales necessitates consideration of sophisticated transport theories. The evolution of such theories has escalated to the point that a review of the subject seems timely. While conceptual and mathematical developments were crucial to the introduction of these new approaches, there are now too many publications that contain theoretical abstractions without regard to real systems, or incremental improvements to existing theories which are known not to be applicable. This volume brings together articles representing a broad spectrum of state-of-the-art approaches for characterization and quantification of contaminant dispersion in heterogeneous porous media. Audience: The contributions are intended to be as accessible as possible to a wide readership of academics and professionals with diverse backgrounds such as earth sciences, subsurface hydrology, petroleum engineering, and soil physics.

Download or read book Transport & Fate of Chemicals in Soils written by H. Magdi Selim and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2014-09-17 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the last four decades, tremendous advances have been made towards the understanding of transport characteristics of contaminants in soils, solutes, and tracers in geological media. Transport & Fate of Chemicals in Soils: Principles & Applications offers a comprehensive treatment of the subject complete with supporting examples of mathematical models that describe contaminants reactivity and transport in soils and aquifers. This approach makes it a practical guide for designing experiments and collecting data that focus on characterizing retention as well as release kinetic reactions in soils and contaminant transport experiments in the laboratory, greenhouse), and in the field. The book provides the basic framework of the principals governing the sorption and transport of chemicalsin soils. It focuses on physical processes such as fractured media, multiregion, multiple porosities, and heterogeneity and effect of scale as well as chemical processes such as nonlinear kinetics, release and desorption hysteresis, multisite and multireaction reactions, and competitive-type reactions. The coverage also includes details of sorption behavior of chemicals with soil matrix surfaces as well the integration of sorption characteristics with mechanisms that govern solute transport in soils. The discussions of applications of the principles of sorption and transport are not restricted to contaminants, but also include nitrogen, phosphorus, and trace elements including essential micronutrients, heavy metals, military explosives, pesticides, and radionuclides. Written in a very clear and easy-to-follow language by a pioneer in soil science, this book details the basic framework of the physical and chemical processes governing the transport of contaminants, trace elements, and heavy metals in soils. Highly practical, it includes laboratory methods, examples, and empirical formulations. The approach taken by the author gives you not only the fundamentals of understanding of reactive chemicals retention and their transport in soils and aquifers, but practical guidance you can put to immediate use in designing experiments and collecting data.

Download or read book Pore Scale Geochemical Processes written by Carl Steefel and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2015-09-25 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This RiMG (Reviews in Mineralogy & Geochemistry) volume includes contributions that review experimental, characterization, and modeling advances in our understanding of pore-scale geochemical processes. The volume had its origins in a special theme session at the 2015 Goldschmidt Conference in Prague. From a diversity of pore-scale topics that ranged from multi-scale characterization to modeling, this work summarizes the state-of-the-science in this subject. Topics include: modification of thermodynamics and kinetics in small pores. chemo-mechanical processes and how they affect porosity evolution in geological media. small angle neutron scattering (SANS) techniques. how isotopic gradients across fluid–mineral boundaries can develop and how these provide insight into pore-scale processes. Information on an important class of models referred to as "pore network" and much more. The material in this book is accessible for graduate students, researchers, and professionals in the earth, material, environmental, hydrological, and biological sciences. The pore scale is readily recognizable to geochemists, and yet in the past it has not received a great deal of attention as a distinct scale or environment that is associated with its own set of questions and challenges. Is the pore scale merely an environment in which smaller scale (molecular) processes aggregate, or are there emergent phenomena unique to this scale? Is it simply a finer-grained version of the "continuum" scale that is addressed in larger-scale models and interpretations? The scale is important because it accounts for the pore architecture within which such diverse processes as multi-mineral reaction networks, microbial community interaction, and transport play out, giving rise to new geochemical behavior that might not be understood or predicted by considering smaller or larger scales alone.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The DOE National Laboratories have extensive environmental remediation and operations centers as well as research teams specializing in environmental problems. These organizations are concerned largely with pollution prevention, safe disposal of hazardous materials, polluted site identification and characterization, and cleanup of polluted sites. These organizations, and the private-industry subcontractors they hire, require state of the art tools and techniques for characterization and monitoring. Our research will contribute to this effort by providing descriptions of heterogeneities and scaling properties in the vadose and saturated zones with particular emphasis on flow and transport. This work will also provide an important link between some geophysical measurements and fluid transport characteristics.
