Editorial to the Special Issue: Adsorption, Absorption and Thermochemical Transport Processes in Complex Porous Structures

“…The research content of the papers of this special issue includes a molecular dynamics study of water flooding in an oil-water system (Sun et al 2020), reconstruction of porous structures (Gao et al 2020), thermochemical heat storage (Wang et al 2020), pore scale models for immiscible displacement (Zhang et al 2021a), MOFs (metal-organic frameworks) screening for hydrogen storage (Wang et al 2021a), lattice Boltzmann, LB, algorithms for interactions between fluid flow and deformable porous media (Mou and Chen 2021), adsorption characteristics of CO 2 to enhance recovery of shale gas CH 4 (Yang et al 2021), multiple retention mechanisms for transport in porous media (de Oliveira Rios Filho et al 2021), solid-fluid molecular interactions on nanoconfined fluid flow (Wang et al 2021b), liquid transport in nanoscale porous media (Zhang et al 2021b), effective porosity and dispersion coefficient from core flooding (Guibert et al 2021) and numerical modeling of gasification of porous char particles in supercritical water (Fan et al 2021). It can be seen that the accepted papers describe novel and rigorous research in the subject areas of the special issue.…”
