Activated desorption at heterogeneous interfaces and long-time kinetics of hydrocarbon recovery from nanoporous media
Hydrocarbon recovery from gas shale challenges existing frameworks for fluid transport due to the nanoporous nature of the shale. Here, the authors use molecular simulation and statistical models to show that gas recovery is thermally activated due to interfacial effects at the nanoporous surface.
