“Experimental Investigation of Solubility Trapping in 3D Printed Micromodels” by Alexandros Patsoukis Dimou, Mahdi Mansouri Boroujeni, Sophie Roman, Hannah Menke, Julien Maes 

How do CO₂ bubbles dissolve in the tiny pores of underground rocks during carbon storage? Our latest study combines experiments in 3D-printed micromodels and direct numerical simulations to investigate this key pore-scale process. We present a reproducible experimental dataset and show how numerical models can capture interfacial mass transfer in the pore space. A step forward for validating pore-scale CO₂ dissolution models in CCS.
