Recent Publication Has Been Selected as Editor’s Choice
PhD student Frank Viveros Acosta's recent publication has been selected as Editor’s Choice by the peer-reviewed and open-access journal Minerals, published by MDPI.
Published: (Updated: )
The article, “Biogeochemical Interactions and Their Role in European Underground Hydrogen Storage”, is authored by PhD student Frank Viveros Acosta together with Dr. Na Liu and Prof. Martin Fernø, and published in the Special Issue Mineral Dissolution and Precipitation in Geologic Porous Media by MDPI.
This review explores how hydrogen interacts with reservoir minerals and microorganisms such as sulfate-reducing bacteria, methanogens, acetogens, and iron-reducing bacteria. These microbial processes can influence storage efficiency by consuming hydrogen, producing byproducts (H₂S, CH₄, acetate, Fe²⁺), and altering reservoir properties through biofilm formation and mineral reactions.
Well done!
