2D Electrical Resistivity Tomography survey optimisation of solute transport in porous media

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to quantify experimentally the evolution of dissolved species in porous media from 2D resistivity models. Transport experiments are done at the lab level by performing flow in a model porous medium obtained by filling a transparent container with mono disperse glass beads. A tracer made by mixing a dissolved blue dye and a known NaCl concentration is injected with a constant flow rate through the porous medium already saturated by a transparent fluid. ERT measurement (...)
