In this study, we have developed a combined lattice Boltzmann-smoothed profile method to
explore coupled mechanisms governing transport of colloids and their retention in porous …

Recent experimental and theoretical work has demonstrated that pore space geometry and
hydrodynamics can play an important role in colloid retention under unfavorable attachment …

Understanding and predicting colloid transport and retention in water‐saturated porous
media is important for the protection of human and ecological health. Early applications of …

Colloid transport through a porous medium changes geometrical and hydraulic properties of
the pore space. The impact of this effect depends on the colloid types and pore space …

Colloidal particles can act as carriers to enhance the transport of contaminants in porous
media by reducing retardation effects. When colloids are present, especially in the vadose …

Colloid transport and retention in porous media is a common phenomenon in both nature
and industry. However, many questions remain on how to obtain colloid transport and …

Advances in pore structure characterization and lattice− Boltzmann (LB) simulations of flow
fields in pore spaces are making mechanistic simulations of colloid transport in real porous …

Accurate prediction of colloid transport in porous media under environmentally relevant
conditions requires incorporation of complex pore geometries into particle trajectory …

Colloidal dispersion in porous media is a consequence of the different paths and velocities
experienced by the colloids. We examined at the pore scale the effect of particle and pore …

We present experimental evidence of the effect of colloid exclusion from areas of small
aperture sizes, using direct observations at the pore‐scale using a realistic micromodel of …
