Brine Drying and Salt Precipitation in Porous Media: A Microfluidics Study

Abstract Drying and salt precipitation in porous media impact various engineering disciplines, including carbon geological storage in brine reservoirs, with considerable hydraulic and mechanical effects. However, understanding the underlying mechanisms and controlling factors is limited due to the l...
