- Abstract:
- ... To extend applicability and to overcome limitations of combining rules for nonbond potential parameters, in this study, CLAYFF and DREIDING force fields are coupled at the level of atomic site charges to model quartz surfaces with chemisorpt hydrocarbons. Density functional theory and Bader charge analysis are applied to calculate charges of atoms of the OC bond connecting a quartz crystal and an ...

- Abstract:
- ... The dynamic wetting for the CO₂–water–silica system occurring in deep reservoirs is complex because of the interactions among multiple phases. This work aims to quantify the contact angle of CO₂–water flow in the silica channel at six different flow velocities using molecular dynamics. The dynamic contact angle values at different contact line velocities are obtained for the CO₂–water–silica syste ...

- Abstract:
- ... CO₂ competitive sorption with shale gas under various conditions from simple to complex pore characteristics is studied using a molecular density functional theory (DFT) that reduces to perturbed chain-statistical associating fluid theory in the bulk fluid region. The DFT model is first verified by grand canonical Monte Carlo simulation in graphite slit pores for pure and binary component systems ...

- Abstract:

Development of a smart sensor that could address CO₂ sensing and its cross-sensitivity toward CO and H₂ gases is highly advantageous. In this work, an advanced gas sensor is proposed and developed to address the cross-sensitivity of CO₂ sensing in CO and H₂ env ...

- Abstract:
- ... Multiphase flow through porous media is important in a wide range of environmental applications such as enhanced oil recovery and geologic storage of CO₂. Recent in situ observations of the three-phase contact line between immiscible fluid phases and solid surfaces suggest that existing models may not fully capture the effects of nanoscale surface textures, impacting flow prediction. To better cha ...

- Abstract:
- ... Metal–organic frameworks are promising candidates for selective separation processes such as CO₂ removal from methane (natural gas sweetening). Framework flexibility, that is, the ability of a MOF lattice to change its structure as a function of parameters like pressure, temperature, and type of adsorbed molecules, is only observed for some special compounds. The main question of our present work ...
