By modifying a physical property of a solution like its density or viscosity, chemical reactions
can modify and even trigger convective flows. These flows in turn affect the spatiotemporal …

Chemical reactions can interplay with hydrodynamic flows to generate chemo-hydrodynamic
instabilities affecting the spatio-temporal evolution of the concentration of the chemicals. We …

In partially miscible two-layer systems within a gravity field, buoyancy-driven convective
motions can appear when one phase dissolves with a finite solubility into the other one. We …

Color indicators are often used for visualization purposes in experimental studies of CO 2
convective dissolution in aqueous solutions. We analyze and compare here experimentally …

The use of surfactants represents a viable strategy to boost the removal yield of Dense Non-
Aqueous Phase Liquids (DNAPLs) from groundwater and to shorten the operational timing …

Upon dissolution of carbon dioxide (CO 2) into deep saline aquifers, various chemical
reactions are likely to take place between dissolved CO 2 and reactants dissolved in the …

We assess experimentally the scaling laws that characterize the mixing region produced by
the Rayleigh-Taylor instability in a confined porous medium. In particular, we wish to assess …

Dissolution-driven density instability (DI) occurs when a species A dissolves into a host fluid
and introduces a buoyantly unstable stratification. Such an instability has positive effects in …

Chemical reactions can impact mixing in partially miscible stratifications by affecting
buoyancy-driven convection developing when one phase dissolves into the other one in the …

The interplay of reaction and diffusion processes can trigger localized spatiotemporal
patterns when two solutions containing separate reactants A and B of an oscillating reaction …
