| Abstract | X-ray tomography image of dewatered filter cakes at irreducible saturation. The initial slurry contains Al2O3 particles suspended in a potassium iodide-glycerol solution. These were separated by cake-forming filtration with subsequent dewatering. All filtration and dewatering experiments took place in an in situ apparatus within the Zeiss Xradia 510 X-ray microscope. High resolution scans are acquired in the equilibrium state after dewatering at different locations within the cake structure to measure the local three-phase contact angle. The data are validated by sessile droplet experiments on substrates of the same material within the X-ray microscope. | |

Publication E: Wetting behavior of porous structures: Three-dimensional determination of the contact angle after filter cake dewatering using X-ray microscopy [1]
The wetting behavior of remaining isolated liquid bridges between particle interfaces determines the efficiency of filter cake dewatering. Micro-processes during and after dewatering can be traced by means of direct X-ray microtomography (ZEISS Xradia 510 Versa) providing insights into the filter cake structure. We measure the local contact angle between the immiscible phases on the pore scale after in-situ filter cake dewatering. By tracing the three-phase contact line and the two perpendicular vectors belonging to the solid and liquid surface, the contact angle is obtained from their scalar product at every mesh-node. The range of the resulting distribution and curvature increases with the degree of roughness, becoming more obvious for larger contact angles. The occurring roughness causes a naturally water-repellent surface and leads to low liquid saturations. The resulting angular distribution serves for a more accurate prediction of multiphase flow in pore networks as input for further pore model enhancement.
