EFRC-NCGC: Reactive Transport for Carbon Sequestration
The Center for Nanoscale Control of Geologic CO2 is simulating subsurface pore scale models to explicitly resolve the key fluid-fluid (H2O and CO2) and fluid-solid interface. ANAG is contributing a new high performance simulation capability using EB Chombo, to develop new approaches for representing chemical kinetics and interfacial dynamics in Darcy scale numerical models (upscaling).

About Berkeley Lab
Founded in 1931 on the belief that the biggest scientific challenges are best addressed by teams, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and its scientists have been recognized with 16 Nobel Prizes. Today, Berkeley Lab researchers develop sustainable energy and environmental solutions, create useful new materials, advance the frontiers of computing, and probe the mysteries of life, matter, and the universe. Scientists from around the world rely on the Lab’s facilities for their own discovery science. Berkeley Lab is a multiprogram national laboratory, managed by the University of California for the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Science.
DOE’s Office of Science is the single largest supporter of basic research in the physical sciences in the United States, and is working to address some of the most pressing challenges of our time. For more information, please visit energy.gov/science.
