Micro Abstract:
Induced calcite precipitation is an emerging technology to alter properties of porous media. It results in a decrease in porosity and permeability as well as an increase in mechanical strength. For a reliable prediction of these changes, numerical modeling is the method of choice, as the involved processes are strongly coupled. Validated to experimental data, such numerical models are useful tools in the upscaling from laboratory to field-scale applications.
