Time: 8 a.m.-12 p.m.
Format: Online
CEUs: 0.8
Geochemical modeling is a powerful tool, which has wide applications such as critical mineral resourcing and processing, CO2 storage in saline aquifers and basalts, carbonate and clastic diagenesis, and hydrogen fuel storage in aquifers. Recently, new thermodynamic databases with the addition of critical minerals and REEs, code enhancements, and utilities associated with computer programs have expanded the applicability ranges of these modeling tools. This short course will introduce these new tools and use examples to demonstrate these expanded geochemical modeling capabilities with examples. At the end of the short course, students will be able to: (1) Become familiar with the concepts, tools, and range of geochemical modeling applications; (2) Use geochemical modeling as a tool to interpret natural and engineered systems.
