Transport of sub-micron colloid particles in soil porous media has been mostly studied numerically with unit-cell-based grain-scale geometries. In this study, we develop a more general approach by combining a multiple-grain pore-scale flow simulation with Lagrangian tracking of individual colloids. First, two numerical methods are applied simultaneously to solve viscous flows in a channel parti...

a novel pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid mixed ligands complex of formula [co(no3)2].6h2o has been obtained by the reaction of pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid with cobalt nitrate and 1,10-phenanthroline on heating in water. the structures of [co(pydc)(phen)(h2o)](pydch2).4h2o receptors, and their complexes were optimized using dft method at the b3lyp/3-21g** level. the highest occupied molecular o...

Continuous filtration of fine particles involves filter cake formation and removal of surface moisture by drawing air through the pore structure network. Conventional network theory can be use to study the phenomena of flow through a porous structure by treating the pores as discrete volumes and connecting these with pore throats as resistances of zero volume. In this regard, analysis of the po...
