Biography
Professor Dalton joined Duke University in August 2022 after obtaining her PhD from North Carolina State University. Her research focuses on the study of reactive, multiphase transport in porous media, where she employs quantitative imaging techniques such as X-ray computed tomography (CT), neutron tomography, and electrical capacitance tomography (ECT). Her work aims to understand and manipulate the chemical and physical processes occurring in engineered (cementitious) and natural (geological) porous materials. She is particularly interested in developing innovative methods to sequester CO2 using hybrid imaging modalities that provide complementary temporal data. Throughout her academic career, she has gained proficiency in various experimental techniques that enhance our understanding of reactive transport phenomena which are critical in environmental engineering and material science.
