Fundamental challenges and opportunities for preparative supercritical fluid chromatography

G Guiochon, A Tarafder - Journal of Chromatography A, 2011 - Elsevier
The use of supercritical fluids as mobile phases in chromatography was suggested nearly
fifty years ago. In spite of some major potential advantages, this mode of chromatography …

Signature of non-Fickian solute transport in complex heterogeneous porous media

Influence of the particle size distribution on hydraulic permeability and eddy dispersion in bulk packings

A Daneyko, A Höltzel, S Khirevich… - Analytical …, 2011 - ACS Publications
The narrow particle size distribution (PSD) of certain packing materials has been linked to a
reduced eddy dispersion contribution to band broadening in chromatographic columns. It is …

Physical reconstruction of packed beds and their morphological analysis: Core–shell packings as an example

S Bruns, U Tallarek - Journal of Chromatography A, 2011 - Elsevier
We report a fast, nondestructive, and quantitative approach to characterize the morphology
of packed beds of fine particles by their three-dimensional reconstruction from confocal laser …

Pore-scale modeling of dispersion in disordered porous media

S Ovaysi, M Piri - Journal of contaminant hydrology, 2011 - Elsevier
We employ a direct pore-level model of incompressible flow that uses the modified moving
particle semi-implicit (MMPS) method. The model is capable of simulating both unsteady …

Modeling of flow in a polymeric chromatographic monolith

H Koku, RS Maier, KJ Czymmek, MR Schure… - … of Chromatography A, 2011 - Elsevier
The flow behavior of a commercial polymeric monolith was investigated by direct numerical
simulations employing the lattice-Boltzmann (LB) methodology. An explicit structural …

Effect of diffusion on dispersion

RK Jha, SL Bryant, LW Lake - SPE Journal, 2011 - onepetro.org
It is known that dispersion in porous media results from an interaction between convective
spreading and diffusion. However, the nature and implications of these interactions are not …
