Monitoring CO₂ invasion processes at the pore scale using geological labs on chip

In order to investigate on the pore scale the mechanisms involved during CO₂ injection in a water saturated pore network, a series of displacement experiments is reported using high pressure micromodels (geological labs on chip – GloCs) working under real geological conditions (25 < T (°C) < 75 and 4.5 < p (MPa) <...
