Raymond Mushabe

The doctoral research is part of the Centre of Sustainable Subsurface Resources (CSSR) work package two [WP2]. WP2 focusses on short-cycle (hours – days) hydrogen storage in porous media. Raymond will experimentally quantify hydrogen flow and storage in porous media, both at the pore and core Scale. Hydrogen saturation functions will be measured at a range of conditions (varying pressure, temperature, injection and withdrawal rates). Focus on microbial activity on hydrogen storage will follow the two steps above at a core scale. Correlation and upscaling between core and pore scale observations will then follow. And finally in put data from experimental resluts will be provided to the simulation team.
