Funding: Advanced Energy Consortium – Bureau of Economic Geology (AEC BEG)

Performers: Kurt Pennell (Brown), Linda Abriola (Tufts)

Personnel: Shuchi Liao

Objective:

The goal of this project is to develop experimentally-validated mathematical models capable of simulating and predicting engineered nano-particle fate and transport in representative reservoir matrices.

 

Use Case Support:

This project supports Use Case 4 by providing: 

  • Experimental measurements of nano-capsule mobility and reactivity in porous media.
  • Numerical models to simulate nano-capsule transport, chromium release, and viscosity alterations in multi-constituent porous media systems.
