Fig. 2. Final concentration distributions after 10 d for the quartz dissolution column for both the variable solid–water interfacial area (asw) and baseline simulations. Sat refers to the degree of water saturation. (On the y axis, distance = 0 corresponds to column inlet).

Fig. 3. Final dissolution rates after 10 d for the quartz dissolution column for both the variable solid–water interfacial area (asw) and baseline simulations. More highly negative numbers indicate faster rates of dissolution. Sat refers to the degree of water saturation. (On the y axis, distance = 0 corresponds to column inlet).
