The goal of this project is to quantify the effect of adsorption on noble gas transport though rocks that contain zeolite compared with rocks that don't. Success is defined by developing a coefficient called Retardation that describes the separation effect of zeolites. This coefficient can then be used by gas transport modelers to predict field-scale observations of noble gases released underground in a chemical explosion
