Abstract:

Abstract. Reactive transport processes in natural environments often involve many ionic species. The diffusivities of ionic species vary. Since assigning different diffusivities in the advection–diffusion equation leads to charge imbalance, a single diffusivity is usually used for all species. In this work, we apply the Nernst–Planck equation, which resolves unequal diffusivities of the species in an electroneutral manner, to model reactive transport. To demonstrate the advantages of the Nernst–Planck model, we compare the simulation results of transport under reaction-driven flow conditions using the Nernst–Planck model with those of the commonly used single-diffusivity model. All simulations are also compared to well-defined experiments on the scale of centimeters. Our results show that the Nernst–Planck model is valid and particularly relevant for modeling reactive transport processes with an intricate interplay among diffusion, reaction, electromigration, and density-driven convection.

Abstract:

AbstractThis paper deals with the 3D-modeling of the reactive transport within a light photocatalytic textile used to decontaminate industrial effluents. The model consists of the coupling of fluid flow governing equations, species convection diffusion equations and a heterogeneous reaction equation. It is solved numerically on a Representative Volume Element (RVE) of the textile, i.e. at the microscopic scale regarding the industrial photocatalytic reactor using Comsol Multiphysics software. In a preliminary approach, the reactive transport model was first applied in a 2D simple geometry to verify its accuracy in terms of mass balance of the species. Then successive simulations using pseudo-periodic boundary conditions were performed in the RVE and the depollution efficiency along the textile length is analysed in terms of pollutant concentration. A sensitivity analysis was done to reveal the relative importance of the kinetic and hydrodynamic parameters in prediction of pollutant concentration fields in the RVE. It was found that a high adsorption rate associated with a low permeable fabric maximizes the amount of treated fluid. Finally the performances of a typical reactor composed of a stack of textiles were investigated. Results show a significant improvement of depollution efficiency of this particular configuration compared to single textiles in parallel.

Abstract:

The recently proposed multi-environment model, R. O. Fox, 1998, “On the Relationship between Lagrangian Micromixing Models and Computational Fluid Dynamics,” Chem. Eng. Proc., Vol. 37, pp. 521–535. J. Villermaux and J. C. Devillon, 1994, “A Generalized Mixing Model for Initial Contacting of Reactive Fluids,” Chem. Eng. Sci., Vol. 49, p. 5127, provides a new category of modeling techniques that can be employed to resolve the turbulence-chemistry interactions found in reactive flows. By solving the Eulerian transport equations for volume fractions and chemical species simultaneously, the local concentrations of chemical species in each environment can be obtained. Assuming micromixing occurs only in phase space, the well-known IEM (interaction by exchange with the mean) model can be applied to close the micromixing term. This simplification allows the model to use micromixing timescales obtained from more sophisticated models and can be applied to any number of environments. Although the PDF shape doesn’t change under this assumption, the interaction between turbulence and chemistry can be resolved up to the second moments without any ad-hoc assumptions for the mean reaction rates. Furthermore, the PDF shape is found to have minimal effect on mean reaction rates for incompressible turbulent reacting flows. In this formulation, a spurious dissipation term arises in the transport equation of the scalar variances due to the use of Eulerian transport equations. A procedure is proposed to eliminate this spurious term. The model is applied to simulate the experiment of S. Komori, et al., 1993, “Measurements of Mass Flux in a Turbulent Liquid Flow With a Chemical Reaction,” AIChE J., Vol. 39, pp. 1611–1620, for a reactive mixing layer and the experiment of K. Li and H. Toor, 1986, “Turbulent Reactive Mixing With a Series Parallel reaction: Effect of Mixing on Yield,” AIChE J., Vol. 32, pp. 1312–1320, with a two-step parallel/consecutive reaction. The results are found to be in good agreement with the experimental data of Komori et al. and the PDF simulation of K. Tsai and R. Fox, 1994, “PDF Simulation of a Turbulent Series-Parallel Reaction in an Axisymmetric Reactor,” Chem. Eng. Sci., Vol. 49, pp. 5141–5158, for the experiment of Li and Toor. The resulting model is implemented in the commercial CFD code, FLUENT,1 and can be applied with any number of species and reactions.

Abstract:

Environmental context. Modelling of discrete sites of diagenesis in sediments (microniches) has typically been performed in 1-D and has involved a limited set of components. Here we present a new 3-D model for microniches within a traditional vertical sequence of redox reactions, and show example modelled niches of a range of sizes, close to the sediment–water interface. Microniche processes may have implications for understanding trace metal diagenesis, via formation of sulfides. The model provides a quantitative framework for examining microniche data and concepts. Abstract. Most reactive transport models have represented sediments as one-dimensional (1-D) systems and have solely considered the development of vertical concentration gradients. However, application of recently developed microscale and 2-D measurement techniques have demonstrated more complicated solute structures in some sediments, including discrete localised sites of depleted oxygen, and elevated trace metals and sulfide, referred to as microniches. A model of transport and reaction in sediments that can simulate the dynamic development of concentration gradients occurring in 3-D was developed. Its graphical user interface allows easy input of user-specified reactions and provides flexible schemes that prioritise their execution. The 3-D capability was demonstrated by quantitative modelling of hypothetical solute behaviour at organic matter microniches covering a range of sizes. Significant effects of microniches on the profiles of oxygen and nitrate are demonstrated. Sulfide is shown to be readily generated in microniches within 1 cm of the sediment surface, provided the diameter of the reactive organic material is greater than 1 mm. These modelling results illustrate the geochemical complexities that arise when processes occur in 3-D and demonstrate the need for such a model. Future use of high-resolution measurement techniques should include the collection of data for relevant major components, such as reactive iron and manganese oxides, to allow full, multicomponent modelling of microniche processes.

Abstract:

Fractures are major flow paths for solute transport in fractured rocks. Conducting numerical simulations of reactive transport in fractured rocks is a challenging task because of complex fracture connections and the associated nonuniform flows and chemical reactions. The study presents a computational workflow that can approximately simulate flow and reactive transport in complex fractured media. The workflow involves a series of computational processes. Specifically, the workflow employs a simple particle tracking (PT) algorithm to track flow paths in complex 3D discrete fracture networks (DFNs). The PHREEQC chemical reaction model is then used to simulate the reactive transport along particle traces. The study illustrates the developed workflow with three numerical examples, including a case with a simple fracture connection and two cases with a complex fracture network system. Results show that the integration processes in the workflow successfully model the tetrachloroethylene (PCE) and trichloroethylene (TCE) degradation and transport along particle traces in complex DFNs. The statistics of concentration along particle traces enables the estimations of uncertainty induced by the fracture structures in DFNs. The types of source contaminants can lead to slight variations of particle traces and influence the long term reactive transport. The concentration uncertainty can propagate from parent to daughter compounds and accumulate along with the transport processes.

Abstract:

Abstract. Barite formation is of concern for many utilisations of the geological subsurface, ranging from oil and gas extraction to geothermal reservoirs. It also acts as a scavenger mineral for the retention of radium within nuclear waste repositories. The impact of its precipitation on flow properties has been shown to vary by many orders of magnitude, emphasising the need for robust prediction models. An experimental flow-through column setup on the laboratory scale investigating the replacement of celestite (SrSO4) with barite (BaSO4) for various input barium concentrations was taken as a basis for modelling. We provide here a comprehensive, geochemical modelling approach to simulate the experiments. Celestite dissolution kinetics, as well as subsequent barite nucleation and crystal growth were identified as the most relevant reactive processes, which were included explicitly in the coupling. A digital rock representation of the granular sample was used to derive the initial inner surface area. Medium (10 mM) and high (100 mM) barium input concentration resulted in a comparably strong initial surge of barite nuclei formation, followed by continuous grain overgrowth and finally passivation of celestite. At lower input concentrations (1 mM), nuclei formation was significantly less, resulting in fewer but larger barite crystals and a slow moving reaction front with complete mineral replacement. The modelled mole fractions of the solid phase and effluent chemistry match well with previous experimental results. The improvement compared to models using empirical relationships is that no a-priori knowledge on prevailing supersaturations in the system is needed. For subsurface applications utilising reservoirs or reactive barriers, where barite precipitation plays a role, the developed geochemical model is of great benefit as only solute concentrations are needed as input for quantified prediction of alterations.

Abstract:

Analytical solutions of partial differential equation (PDE) models describing reactive transport phenomena in saturated porous media are often used as screening tools to provide insight into contaminant fate and transport processes. While many practical modelling scenarios involve spatially variable coefficients, such as spatially variable flow velocity, v ( x ), or spatially variable decay rate, k ( x ), most analytical models deal with constant coefficients. Here we present a framework for constructing exact solutions of PDE models of reactive transport. Our approach is relevant for advection-dominant problems, and is based on a regular perturbation technique. We present a description of the solution technique for a range of one-dimensional scenarios involving constant and variable coefficients, and we show that the solutions compare well with numerical approximations. Our general approach applies to a range of initial conditions and various forms of v ( x ) and k ( x ). Instead of simply documenting specific solutions for particular cases, we present a symbolic worksheet, as supplementary material, which enables the solution to be evaluated for different choices of the initial condition, v ( x ) and k ( x ). We also discuss how the technique generalizes to apply to models of coupled multispecies reactive transport as well as higher dimensional problems.

Abstract:

Abstract. The porous microenvironment of soil offers various environmental functions which are governed by physical and reactive processes. Understanding reactive transport processes in porous media is essential for many natural systems (soils, aquifers, aquatic sediments or subsurface reservoirs) or technological processes (water treatment or ceramic and fuel cell technologies). In particular, in the vadose zone of the terrestrial subsurface the spatially and temporally varying saturation of the aqueous and the gas phase leads to systems that involve complex flow and transport processes as well as reactive transformations of chemical compounds in the porous material. To describe these interacting processes and their dynamics at the pore scale requires a well-suited modelling framework accounting for the proper description of all relevant processes at a high spatial resolution. Here we present P3D-BRNS as a new open-source modelling toolbox harnessing the core libraries of OpenFOAM and coupled externally to the Biogeochemical Reaction Network Simulator (BRNS). The native OpenFOAM volume-of-fluid solver is extended to have an improved representation of the fluid–fluid interface. The solvers are further developed to couple the reaction module which can be tailored for a specific reactive transport simulation. P3D-RBNS is benchmarked against three different flow and reactive transport processes: (1) fluid–fluid configuration in a capillary corner, (2) mass transfer across the fluid–fluid interface and (3) microbial growth with a high degree of accuracy. Our model allows for simulation of the spatio-temporal distribution of all biochemical species in the porous structure (obtained from μ-CT images), for conditions that are commonly found in the laboratory and environmental systems. With our coupled computational model, we provide a reliable and efficient tool for simulating multiphase, reactive transport in porous media.

Abstract:

Abstract. We present a method to simulate fluid flow with reactive solute transport in structured, partially saturated soils using a Lagrangian perspective. In this context, we extend the scope of the Lagrangian Soil Water and Solute Transport Model (LAST) (Sternagel et al., 2019) by implementing vertically variable, non-linear sorption and first-order degradation processes during transport of reactive substances through a partially saturated soil matrix and macropores. For sorption, we develop an explicit mass transfer approach based on Freundlich isotherms because the common method of using a retardation factor is not applicable in the particle-based approach of LAST. The reactive transport method is tested against data of plot- and field-scale irrigation experiments with the herbicides isoproturon and flufenacet at different flow conditions over various periods. Simulations with HYDRUS 1-D serve as an additional benchmark. At the plot scale, both models show equal performance at a matrix-flow-dominated site, but LAST better matches indicators of preferential flow at a macropore-flow-dominated site. Furthermore, LAST successfully simulates the effects of adsorption and degradation on the breakthrough behaviour of flufenacet with preferential leaching and remobilization. The results demonstrate the feasibility of the method to simulate reactive solute transport in a Lagrangian framework and highlight the advantage of the particle-based approach and the structural macropore domain to simulate solute transport as well as to cope with preferential bypassing of topsoil and subsequent re-infiltration into the subsoil matrix.

Full text

Abstract:

The rollfront type deposits are crescent shaped accumulation of mineralization including uranium, selenium, molybdenum in reduced permeable sandstones. It generally forms within a geochemical barrier between mostly reduced and predominantly oxidized environments. Redox reactions between oxidant and reductant creates favorable conditions for uranium precipitation, while constant flow of oxidant continuously dissolves uranium minerals thereby creating a reactive transport. Several previous works had either focused on the characteristics of the rollfront type deposits, or on the description of chemical and geological processes involved in their genesis. Based on these previous works, authors aimed to mimic laboratory experiments numerically by reactive flow and numerical simulation. Data from one particular experiment was used to determine reaction rates between reactants to produce a model of reactive transport and chemical processes involved in the formation of rollfront type deposits. The resulting model was used to identify the causes of crescent like formations and to determine main mechanisms influencing rollfront evolution. A better understanding and simulation of the mechanism involved in the formation of rollfront type deposits and their properties would contribute to decreased exploration and production costs of commodities trapped within such accumulations. The results of this work can be used to model other deposits formed through infiltration and subsequent precipitation of various minerals at the redox interface.

Abstract:

Reactive transport models are useful tools in the development of cement-based materials. The output of cement-related reactive transport models is primarily regarded as qualitative and not quantitative, mainly due to limited or missing experimental validation. This paper presents an approach to optimize the calibration process of reactive transport models for cement-based materials, using the results of several short-term experiments. A quantitative comparison of changes in the hydrate phases (measured using TGA and XRD) and exposure solution (measured using ICP-OES) was used to (1) establish a representative chemical model, limiting the number of hydrate phases and dissolved species, and (2) calibrate the transport processes by only modeling the initial tortuosity. A case study comprising the early age carbonation of cement is presented to demonstrate the approach. The results demonstrate that the inclusion of a microstructure model in our framework minimizes the impact of the initial tortuosity factor as a fitting parameter for the transport processes. The proposed approach increases the accuracy of reactive transport models and, thus, allowing for more realistic modeling of long-term exposure.

Abstract:

Summary A pore-network model (PNM) is an efficient tool to account for phenomena occurring at the pore scale. Its explicit 3D network of pores interconnected by throats represents an easy way to consider the topology and geometry effects on upscaled and homogenized petrophysical parameters. In particular, this modeling approach is appropriate to study the rock/fluid interactions. It can provide quantitative information both on the effective transport property modifications caused by the reactions and on the structure evolution resulting from dissolution/precipitation mechanisms. The model developed is based on the resolution of the macroscopic reactive transport equation between the nodes of the network. By upscaling the results, we then determined the effective transport properties at the core scale. A sensitivity study on reactive and flow regimes has been conducted in the case of single-phase flow in the limit of long times. It has been observed that the mean reactive solute velocity and dispersion can vary up to one order of magnitude compared with the tracer values because of the concentration-profile heterogeneity at the pore scale resulting from the surface reactions. As for the reactive apparent coefficient, when the kinetics is limited by the mass transfer, it can decrease by several orders of magnitude with regard to that calculated by the usual perfect-mixing assumption. That is why scale factors should be added to the classical macroscopic transport equation implemented in reservoir simulators to predict accurately the reactive flow effects. For each study case, we also obtained the permeability variation vs. the porosity evolution in a physical way that accounts for reactive transport conditions. It appears that the wall-deformation pattern and its effect on petrophysical properties must be explained by considering both microscopic and macroscopic scales of the reactive transport, each one governed by a dimensionless number comparing reaction and transport characteristic times. This work helps improve the understanding of surface-reactions effects on reactive flow on the one hand and on permeability and porosity modifications on the other. Using the PNM approach, scale-factor parameters and permeability-vs.-porosity relations can be determined for various rock types and reactive flow regimes. Once integrated as inputs in a reservoir simulator, these relations form a powerful and convenient means of enhancing the modeling accuracy of the change in petrophysical properties during injection of a reactive fluid, such as brine rich in carbon dioxide (CO2).

Abstract:

Abstract. Dissolution and precipitation processes in reactive transport in porous media are ubiquitous in a multitude of contexts within the field of Earth sciences. In particular, the dynamic interaction between the reactive dissolution and precipitation processes and the solute transport is of interest as it is capable of giving rise to the emergence of preferential flow paths in the porous host matrix. It has been shown that the emergence of preferential flow paths can be considered to be a manifestation of transport self-organization in porous media as these create spatial gradients that distance the system from the state of perfect mixing and allow for a faster and more efficient fluid transport through the host matrix. To investigate the dynamic feedback between the transport and the reactive processes in the field and its influence on the emergence of transport self-organization, we consider a two-dimensional Darcy-scale formulation of a reactive-transport setup, where the precipitation and dissolution of the host matrix are driven by the injection of an acid compound, establishing local equilibrium with the resident fluid and an initially homogeneous porous matrix, composed of a calcite mineral. The coupled reactive process is simulated in a series of computational analyses employing the Lagrangian particle-tracking (LPT) approach, capable of capturing the subtleties of the multiple-scale heterogeneity phenomena. We employ the Shannon entropy to quantify the emergence of self-organization in the field, which we define as a relative reduction in entropy compared to its maximum value. Scalability of the parameters, which characterize the evolution of the reactive process, with the Peclet number in an initially homogeneous field is derived using a simple one-dimensional ADRE model with a linear adsorption reaction term and is then confirmed through numerical simulations, with the global reaction rate, the mean value, and the variance of the hydraulic-conductivity distribution in the field all exhibiting dependency on the reciprocal of the Peclet number. Our findings show that transport self-organization in an initially homogeneous field increases with time, along with the emergence of the field heterogeneity due to the interaction between the transport and reactive processes. By studying the influence of the Peclet number on the reactive process, we arrive at a conclusion that self-organization is more pronounced in diffusion-dominated flows, characterized by small Peclet values. The self-organization of the breakthrough curve exhibits the opposite tendencies, which are observed from the perspective of a thermodynamic analogy. The hydraulic power, required to maintain the driving head pressure difference between the inlet and outlet of the field, was shown to increase with the increasing variance, as well as with the increasing mean value of the hydraulic-conductivity distribution in the field, using a simple analytic model. This was confirmed by numerical experiments. This increase in power, supplied to the flow in the field, results in an increase in the level of transport self-organization. Employing a thermodynamic framework to investigate the dynamic reaction–transport interaction in porous media may prove to be beneficial whenever the need exists to establish relations between the intensification of the preferential flow path phenomenon, represented by a decline in the Shannon entropy of the transport, with the amount of reaction that occurred in the porous medium and the change in its heterogeneity.

Abstract:

The geologic storage of CO2 carries both physical and chemical risks to the environment. In order to reduce those risks, it is necessary to provide predictive capabilities for impacts so that strategies can be developed to monitor, identify and mitigate potential problems. One area of concern is related to water quality both in the reservoir and in overlying aquifers. In this study we report the critical steps required to develop chemically constrained reactive transport models (RTM) that can be used to address risk assessment associated with water quality. The data required to produce the RTM includes identifying the individual hydrostratigraphic units and defining the mineral and chemical composition to sufficient detail for the modelling. This includes detailed mineralogy, bulk chemical composition, reactive mineral phase chemical composition and the identification of the occurrence and mechanisms of mobilisation of any trace elements of interest. Once the required detail is achieved the next step involves conducting experiments to determine the evolution of water chemistry as reaction proceeds preferably under varying elevated CO2 fugacities with and without impurities. Geochemical modelling of the experiments is then used for characterising the reaction pathways of the different hydrostratigraphic units. The resultant geochemical model inputs can then be used to develop the chemical components of a reactive transport model.

Abstract:

SUMMARY Multiphase reactive transport processes are ubiquitous in igneous systems. A challenging aspect of modelling igneous phenomena is that they range from solid-dominated porous to liquid-dominated suspension flows and therefore entail a wide spectrum of rheological conditions, flow speeds and length scales. Most previous models have been restricted to the two-phase limits of porous melt transport in deforming, partially molten rock and crystal settling in convecting magma bodies. The goal of this paper is to develop a framework that can capture igneous system from source to surface at all phase proportions including not only rock and melt but also an exsolved volatile phase. Here, we derive an n-phase reactive transport model building on the concepts of Mixture Theory, along with principles of Rational Thermodynamics and procedures of Non-equilibrium Thermodynamics. Our model operates at the macroscopic system scale and requires constitutive relations for fluxes within and transfers between phases, which are the processes that together give rise to reactive transport phenomena. We introduce a phase- and process-wise symmetrical formulation for fluxes and transfers of entropy, mass, momentum and volume, and propose phenomenological coefficient closures that determine how fluxes and transfers respond to mechanical and thermodynamic forces. Finally, we demonstrate that the known limits of two-phase porous and suspension flow emerge as special cases of our general model and discuss some ramifications for modelling pertinent two- and three-phase flow problems in igneous systems.

Abstract:

Transport of tracers subject to mass transfer reactions in single rock fractures is investigated. A Lagrangian probabilistic model is developed where the mass transfer reactions are diffusion into the rock matrix and subsequent sorption in the matrix, and sorption on the fracture surface as well as on gauge (infill) material in the fracture. Sorption reactions are assumed to be linear, and in the general case kinetically controlled. The two main simplifying assumptions are that diffusion in the rock matrix is one-dimensional, perpendicular to the fracture plane, and the tracer is displaced within the fracture plane by advection only. The key feature of the proposed model is that advective transport and diffusive mass transfer are related in a dynamic manner through the flow equation. We have identified two Lagrangian random variables τ and β as key parameters which control advection and diffusive mass transfer, and are determined by the flow field. The probabilistic solution of the transport problem is based on the statistics of (τ, β), which we evaluated analytically using first-order expansions, and numerically using Monte Carlo simulations. To study (τ, β)-statistics, we assumed the ‘cubic law’ to be applicable locally, whereby the pressure field is described with the Reynolds lubrication equation. We found a strong correlation between τ and β which suggests a deterministic relationship β∼τ3/2; the exponent 3/2 is an artifact of the ‘cubic law’. It is shown that flow dynamics in fractures has a strong influence on the variability of τ and β, but a comparatively small impact on the relationship between τ and β. The probability distribution for the (decaying) tracer mass recovery is dispersed in the parameter space due to fracture aperture variability.

Abstract:

We introduce a discrete-time microscopic single-particle model for kinetic transport. The kinetics are modeled by a two-state Markov chain, and the transport is modeled by deterministic advection plus a random space step. The position of the particle after n time steps is given by a random sum of space steps, where the size of the sum is given by a Markov binomial distribution (MBD). We prove that by letting the length of the time steps and the intensity of the switching between states tend to 0 linearly, we obtain a random variable S(t), which is closely connected to a well-known (deterministic) partial differential equation (PDE), reactive transport model from the civil engineering literature. Our model explains (via bimodality of the MBD) the double peaking behavior of the concentration of the free part of solutes in the PDE model. Moreover, we show for instantaneous injection of the solute that the partial densities of the free and adsorbed parts of the solute at time t do exist, and satisfy the PDEs.

Abstract:

In recent years, different experimental works with molecular simulation techniques have been developed to study the transport of plasma-generated reactive species in liquid layers. Here, we improve the classical transport model that describes the molecular species movement in liquid layers via considering the fractional reaction–telegraph equation. We have considered the fractional equation to describe a non-Brownian motion of molecular species in a liquid layer, which have different diffusivities. The analytical solution of the fractional reaction–telegraph equation, which is defined in terms of the Caputo fractional derivative, is obtained by using the Laplace–Fourier technique. The profiles of species density with the mean square displacement are discussed in each case for different values of the time-fractional order and relaxation time.
