Abstract: | In this thesis, we have employed molecular dynamics simulations and enhanced sampling free energy methods to elucidate the atomistic details of the structure and dynamics of H2O/CO2, antibiotics, and NOM at clay interfaces. In Chapter 3 and 4, we have studied the structure, dynamics, and energetics of H2O/CO2 in smectite clay interlayers. The role of charge balancing cations in the adsorption of CO2 at mineral-water interfaces is discussed in Chapter 5. In Chapter 6, we have derived force field parameters for antibiotic drug molecules and modeled drug-clay composites using newly generated force field parameters. The interactions of different functional groups of NOM, their structure, orientation and affinity towards cations, in clay-water interlayers are discussed in Chapter 7 newline |
