Microscale flow and multiphysical transport in porous media (in Chinese)
On Sunday, 12 May, Moran Wang (Tsinghua University, China) will present “Microscale flow and multiphysical transport in porous media (in Chinese)” on behalf of the InterPore China Chapter Committee.
The course will present highlights on in-depth understanding of microscale flow and multiphysical transports in porous media, with an emphasis on microscale mechanisms and scale and coupling bridges.
The course will start with a review of classical fundamentals, so that the basic physical laws governing flow and multiple transports – at different scales – will be properly understood. Consequently the latest developments in theories, experiments and multiscale modelling technologies will be presented. Attendees will learn how to apply the knowledge of microscale transport to predict behavior with a wide range of applications.
Advances in CO2 Sequestration in Reactive Basaltic Rocks through Mineral Carbonation
On Friday, 17 May, Professor Helge Hellevang, Dr. Mohammad Nooraiepour, and Dr. Mohammad Masoudi (University of Oslo) will present a course on “Advances in CO2 Sequestration in Reactive Basaltic Rocks through Mineral Carbonation”. Explore the forefront of geological carbon storage (GCS) by delving into mineral carbonation in basaltic rocks, a highly promising technology that leverages the unique blend of characteristics in mafic and ultramafic rocks abundant in the Earth’s crust. This workshop dives into the intricacies of this CO2 sequestration approach, which, in theory, could surpass anthropogenic CO2 emissions.
The workshop will thoroughly examine the fundamental scientific and engineering principles that pave the way for realizing the expansive potential of large-scale CO2 sequestration in basalt through carbon mineralization. We will scrutinize crucial facets of this unconventional CCS technology, recognizing its immense untapped potential for contributing to global emission reductions. Join us as we unravel the complexities and promise of this cutting-edge approach, propelling us toward a future of sustainable carbon management.
Course space is limited. If you are interested in registering for these courses, you may do so in conjunction with your conference registration.
If you have already registered and wish to update your registration, please contact Margaret Dieter.

InterPore Journal Update
For those of you who will be attending the conference in May, don’t forget to stop by the InterPore stand in the exhibition area. InterPore Journal‘s Editor-in-Chief, Nima Shokri, will be there along some other members of the board, and they will be more than happy to tell you about the journal, and answer any questions which you may have. You can also pick up your own copy of the first issue at the stand!
As a reminder for the students that will be presenting at the Conference, there is a chance to receive the Best Invited Student Paper Award. More information can be found on this here.
And now…Qingdao!
InterPore2024 will be in Qingdao. Described as a city of “red tiles, green trees, blue sky, and blue sea”, Qingdao has a lot to offer with respect to science, science history and porous media. This week: Laoshan Cola
Laoshan Cola is China’s earliest carbonated beverage, born in 1953. It was the first carbonated beverage independently developed in China. The unique flavor of Laoshan Cola lies in the combination of plant extracts from galingale, clove, bai zhi (angelica root), and the fruit of Villous amomum to name a few. After scientific blending, it possesses a unique cola flavor while also carrying the taste of Chinese herbal medicine, which is deeply loved by a certain portion of consumers. Moreover, Laoshan Cola has rich bubbles, giving a refreshing feeling when consumed.
