Book Description
Open system behavior is predicated on a fundamental relationship between the timescale over which mass is transported and the timescale over which it is chemically transformed. This relationship describes the basis for the multidisciplinary field of reactive transport (RT). In the 20 years since publication of Review in Mineralogy and Geochemistry volume 34: Reactive Transport in Porous Media, RT principles have expanded beyond early applications largely based in contaminant hydrology to become broadly utilized throughout the Earth Sciences. RT is now employed to address a wide variety of natural and engineered systems across diverse spatial and temporal scales, in tandem with advances in computational capability, quantitative imaging and reactive interface characterization techniques. The present volume reviews the diversity of reactive transport applications developed over the past 20 years, ranging from the understanding of basic processes at the nano- to micrometer scale to the prediction of Earth global cycling processes at the watershed scale. Key areas of RT development are highlighted to continue advancing our capabilities to predict mass and energy transfer in natural and engineered systems.

Languages : en
Pages : 418
Book Description
This book contains a series of broadly-based contributions from leading international researchers on the relationships between the chemical reactions occurring during the hydration of inorganic binders (including Portland cements, calcium aluminate cements, their principal constituent phases and plaster), and the setting process. The book presents the state-of-the-art on the chemical, structural and textural evolution of cement paste before and during setting. The three main topics covered are hydration of cements, hydration and setting, and hydration and microstructure. Relatively few studies have been made on the physico-chemical phenomena responsible for, or involved in, setting of cements. The central part of the book presents much original and novel material, with a series of contributions from colloid scientists giving fundamental reviews and special reports on the nature of particle interactions which may be involved in the setting process, and two groups of contributions reporting experimental results from studies on the rheology of suspensions, and strength development during setting, respectively. The book forms the Proceedings of the International RILEM Workshop held in Dijon, France in 1991. It is dedicated to Pierre Barret, and includes a tribute to him and a review of his contribution to the study of the reactivity of solids at the University of Burgundy, France, over more than 40 years.
