Multiphase flow and reactive transport are two essential physicochemical processes that
govern the effectiveness of geological carbon sequestration (GCS). The interaction and …

The reaction of slaked lime with atmospheric CO 2 in the presence of humidity leads to the
formation of cementing carbonate phases in traditional aerial lime mortars and plasters. This …

Carbonation of cementitious materials is one of the most important reasons leading to the
deterioration of steel-reinforced concrete structures. After years of research, different models …

In interface coupled dissolution-precipitation systems, the dynamics of the mineral-fluid
interface depends on two intertwining processes: the dissolution of the primary mineral that …

Magnesium oxide (MgO) looping is a proposed technology for gigatonne-scale carbon
dioxide (CO 2) removal from the atmosphere. Here, we determined CO 2 removal rates by …

The understanding and prediction of mineral precipitation processes in porous media are
relevant for various energy-related subsurface applications. While it is well known that …

This modelling study investigated the physicochemical and kinetic controls of the
mineralogical evolutions of cementitious materials subject to accelerated atmospheric …

The role of magnesium oxide (MgO) in the carbonation of cementitious materials, particularly
alkali-activated materials (AAM), which is a promising low-carbon alternative to ordinary …

Because of its solid structure, low permeability, slow diffusion and good chemical retention
for many radionuclides, cementitious materials are often used for conditioning radioactive …

Reactive transport modelling is a powerful tool to assess subsurface evolution in various
energy-related applications. Upscaling, ie, accounting for pore scale heterogeneities into …
