We are pleased to announce that the 9th Reactive Transport PhD Workshop will take place at the UFZ in Leipzig, Germany. We would like to encourage PhD students to come, present and discuss their current research in a friendly and open atmosphere. The workshop is organized in conjunction with a short OGS-6 training course on reactive transport modelling. The course is also open to scientists new to the topic, although registration priority will be given to PhD students.

• 16 March 2020: Presentation / discussion of PhD projects
• 17 March 2020: Short OGS-6 training course

Background and Scope

The importance of reactive transport in porous and fractured media has been increasingly recognized for many applications in environmental science and engineering such as contaminant hydrology, water resources, waste management, geotechnical engineering, nuclear waste disposal, geothermal energy and energy storage. The intention of the workshop is to serve as a platform for PhD students working in the field of reactive transport modeling and related experiments to present their work, exchange their knowledge and share their experience.
