Short course @ INTERPORE: MNMs: A MODELLING TOOL FOR NANOPARTICLE TRANSPORT IN POROUS MEDIA

In the framework of the 7th International Conference on Porous Media & Annual Meeting organized by INTERPORE, the Groundwater Engineering Group of Politecnico di Torino is pleased to announce the short course:

MNMs: A MODELLING TOOL FOR NANOPARTICLE TRANSPORT IN POROUS MEDIA

May 21-22, 2015, Padova (Italy) 

The course provides an insight into the mechanisms governing colloidal transport in saturated porous media under both constant and transient hydro-chemical conditions, with eventual clogging of the porous medium.

Part of the course will be devoted to the practical use of MNMs 2014 (Micro- and Nanoparticle transport, filtration and clogging Model - Suite), a numerical tool for the analysis of laboratory tests of solute and nanoparticles transport and for the simulation of particles injection at pilot scale.

Deadline for registration is 20th March.

Number of places available is limited, maximum 25 participants will be accepted.

Please register through the official INTERPORE website:
