Micromodel Study on Colloid Retention and Mobilization under different Geo-Chemical Conditions during Single and Two-Phase Flow by Nishad, Safna

“…Micromodels are analogs to porous media that allow the real-time visualization of pore-scale processes that occur at highly controllable physio-chemical conditions in the laboratory scale. In this thesis, we used a glass micromodel with representative geometry to observe the pore-scale mechanisms during colloid retention and mobilization experiments in a saturated and unsaturated porous media. …”
