Physicochemical thermodynamic modelling in geochemistry, in particular:
  • Aqueous - solid solution equilibria in carbonate, oxide, clay, LDH and cement systems; trace element up-take kinetics in solid solutions; multi-site solid solution models.
  • Thermodynamic modeling of partitioning of trace metals and radionuclides in aquatic environments, with applications related to geo-energy and safety of geological radioactive waste disposal.
  • Thermodynamic aspects of multi-site, multi-dentate adsorption onto mineral-water interfaces.
  • Innovative computer-aided methods, algorithms and software for geochemical modeling by GEM (Gibbs energy minimization) and for reactive transport simulations.
  • Development of code libraries of models of mixing in phases-solutions, (ad)sorption, and kinetics of mineral dissolution, nucleation and growth.
  • Mineral surface reactivity and kinetics in relation to reactive transport and trace element uptake.
  • Formation of Fe, Mn, Al and mixed hydroxides as natural sorbents in soils, sediments, and rocks.
  • Thermodynamics of SS-AS Systems: Physicochemical modeling of solid solution - aqueous solution (SS-AS) systems using the Gibbs Energy Minimization (GEM) method, with extensions to multi-site solid solutions and links with atomistic simulations of mixing and time-dependent trace element uptake (former SKIN project). Cement C-S-H phases (CASH and CASH-2 projects), and carbonate and sulfate systems (e.g. Ba-Sr-Ra sulfates in ThermAc project) are of particular interest.
  • Thermodynamics of adsorption: Theoretical aspects of surface complexation/sorption capacity models (SCM) with- or without site balances, with implementation in GEMS, and with applications to radionuclide sorption on surfaces of oxide-, carbonate- and clay minerals. Extensions to cover electrostatic sorption models such as CD-MUSIC and Donnan volume electrolyte. Theoretical background for standard and reference states for extending future chemical thermodynamic databases with surface species. Conversions of equilibrium constants for denticity and surface density.
  • Reactive transport (RT) phenomena: Use of standalone GEMS3K chemical solver for coupling with various fluid-mass transport codes such as Comsol, OpenGeoSys, and CSMP++ (in collaboration with their respective developers). Implementation of the "GEM2MT" module in the GEM-Selektor code for simplified 1D advection-diffusion and box-flux RT models. Applications of GEMS-based coupled codes to geothermal systems (COTHERM-2 project), hydrothermal dolomitization, clay-cement interfaces, cemented waste degradation, and other areas. Account for reactive surface area and transport properties evolution and upscaling in RT modeling. Development of the next-generation GEMS4R chemical solver coupled with the Reaktoro framework for modeling chemically reactive systems (http://www.reaktoro.org) for use in efficient RT simulations.
  • GEMS TM: Gibbs Energy Minimization Software for Thermodynamic Modelling. Includes GEM-Selektor, GEMS3K codes developed at LES since 2000 by a cooperative team under my lead. GEMS is particularly efficient in computing complete or partial equilibria in complex non-ideal aquatic systems, both dilute and compacted, involving the uptake of radionuclides by sorption or solid solution formation relevant for Swiss radioactive waste management-related research. The applications of GEMS are greatly facilitated by built-in PSI-Nagra and SUPCRT chemical thermodynamic databases, as well as third-party databases Cemdata’14, HERACLES and Mines’16. Details in GEMS web site (https://gems.web.psi.ch).
