The formation of solid inorganic salts from solutions is of fundamental importance for
industrial, geological, and biological processes. Here, we review the literature on the …

Scaling is the bane of households and industries that make use of water frequently. The
consequences are so egregious that harmful chemicals have been sought after to remedy …

The present study focuses on newer biocoagulants, bioformulations, and the understanding
of coagulant behavior with biocoagulants in relation to chemical coagulants. Newer …

Interfacial free energies often control heterogeneous nucleation of calcium carbonate
(CaCO3) on mineral surfaces. Here we report an in situ experimental study of CaCO3 …

Nine accurate experimental data sets on amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) formation in
dilute solution were collected varying temperature and pH. The entire precipitation process …

The rates of subsurface mineral carbonation are commonly considered to be limited by the
dissolution rates of the silicate minerals originally present in the target reservoir rocks …

Laser‐backscattering instruments, such as the focused beam reflectance measurement or
threefold dynamical optical reflectance measurement, are promising tools to aid …

Focused beam reflectance measurement (FBRM) has gained much popularity as a tool for
particle system characterization both in crystallization research and in manufacturing. The …

Visualization experiments using one-dimensional (1-D) porous media made of Plexiglas
and two-dimensional glass porous networks were conducted to obtain qualitative and …

The deposition of inorganic salts (“scales”) such as calcium carbonate is an important flow
assurance problem during crude oil production. The knowledge of the features of the …
