“…In contrast, other studies on leachate plumes and miscible displacements in oil reservoirs have suggested that the presence of groundwater flow may delay the onset of convection or even prevent it, thus suppressing convective dissolution and the overall dissolution rate (List, 1965;Menand & Woods, 2005;Oostrom et al, 1992;Rogerson & Meiburg, 1993;Schincariol & Schwartz, 1990;Schincariol et al, 1994;Yortsos & Zeybek, 1988). Dispersion was considered in a few studies on CO 2 dissolution in deep saline aquifers, but without the presence of groundwater flow (Aggelopoulos & Tsakiroglou, 2012;Ghesmat et al, 2011;Hidalgo & Carrera, 2009;Liang et al, 2018;Mahmoodpour et al, 2020;Wen et al, 2018). Most of these studies showed that dispersivity has a suppressing effect on the onset of convection, increasing the critical wavelength of the instability and the time of the onset of convection on one hand, while it is increasing the diffusive mixing, on the other hand.…”

“…Most of these studies showed that dispersivity has a suppressing effect on the onset of convection, increasing the critical wavelength of the instability and the time of the onset of convection on one hand, while it is increasing the diffusive mixing, on the other hand. The combined effect of the two processes may result in either an increase (Ghesmat et al, 2011; Mahmoodpour et al, 2020), a decrease (Aggelopoulos & Tsakiroglou, 2012; Hidalgo & Carrera, 2009), or a nonmonotonic behavior (Wen et al, 2018) of the overall dissolution rate.…”

“…The non-equilibrium dissolution may result in dsCO 2 concentration in the boundary layer that slowly increases with time before reaching solubility, leading to the non-instantaneous dissolution at certain spatial scales. This slow process will affect the development of a stable, diffusion-dominant boundary layer of dsCO 2 -containing brine, the onset and initialization of unstable fingers of dsCO 2 originating from the boundary layer, and the evolution, merging, and decay of these fingers in both homogeneous and heterogeneous porous media (Ennis-King and Paterson, 2003;Kneafsey and Pruess, 2010;Neufeld et al, 2010;Backhaus et al, 2011;Aggelopoulos and Tsakiroglou, 2012;MacMinn et al, 2012;Agartan et al, 2015).…”

“…Except for Neufeld et al . [] who performed experiments in 2‐D porous media using glass beads, the experiments were carried out either in Hele‐Shaw cells or in one‐dimensional (1‐D) columns using either gaseous CO 2 and water [ Aggelopoulos and Tsakiroglou , ; Farajzadeh et al ., ; Kneafsey and Pruess , ] or surrogate fluids for scCO 2 and formation brine under ambient pressure and temperature conditions [ Backhaus et al ., ; Ennis‐King and Paterson , ; Neufeld et al ., ]. The experimental studies mainly focused on the effects of fluid and formation parameters on the mass transfer rate, and the onset of instabilities leading to convective mixing.…”
