The lattice Boltzmann method is employed in conjunction with a Lagrangian particle tracking algorithm to investigate the fate and transport of nanoparticles as they propagate in porous columns that are packed with spherical particles. In this approach, physical phenomena that result in particle retention and remobilization are represented by a probability for adsorption and desorption, respectively...
