Abstract
The present technology generally relates to a porous medium parameter measurement device comprising one or more component selected from: a porous conductive component; a porous non-conductive component; and a selective component. The one or more component is in operative communication with each one of the one or more component and with a porous medium through a plurality of pores allowing a porous medium solution to reach diffusion equilibrium between the porous medium and each of the one or more component. The one or more component allows direct measurement of a multiplicity of parameters of the porous medium solution.
Claims14
A porous medium parameter measurement device comprising alternating layers of at least one porous conductive component, and at least one porous non-conductive component;
- wherein each one of the alternating layers is in operative communication with a porous medium through a plurality of pores allowing a porous medium solution to diffuse through each one of the alternating layers to reach diffusion equilibrium with the porous medium;
- wherein at least one of the alternating layers is enriched or supplemented with at least one of conducting particles and ionophores;
- and
- wherein at least two parameters of the porous medium solution are measured, the at least two parameters being different from one another.
