Dr. Zaid Jangda is a Postdoctoral Researcher in the GeoEnergy research group at the Lyell Centre, specialising in subsurface hydrogen storage and fluid flow in porous media. His research uses advanced X-ray imaging techniques to visualise fluid flow in rocks at the pore scale, offering key insights into fluid displacement mechanisms for subsurface energy storage systems. His current project investigates permeability variations in mudrocks under different salinity conditions, essential for understanding and ensuring the integrity of subsurface storage seals.
Beyond research, Dr. Jangda is deeply committed to science communication and outreach. He actively engages in public outreach initiatives, volunteers for educational programmes, conducts career sessions at schools, and mentors students on sustainability and climate change.
His recent publications are listed below:
- Pore-scale visualization of hydrogen storage in a sandstone at subsurface pressure and temperature conditions: Trapping, dissolution and wettability
- Subsurface hydrogen storage controlled by small-scale rock heterogeneities
- Hydrogen wettability and capillary pressure in Clashach sandstone for underground hydrogen storage
