This paper focuses on the predicted calcite profile in 1D-columns in comparison with experimental results. First, a calcite precipitation experiment in three sand- filled columns placed in series will be described. Subsequently, a description of a simplifled model approach is presented. Experimental results and model results are compared and discussed. Finally, follow-up activities towards a more sophisticated model are discussed.
