Abstract
The instability of a chemical dissolution front is an important scientific problem associated with reactive transport processes in fluid-saturated porous media (Chadam et al. 1986, 1988; Ortoleva et al. 1987; Imhoff and Miller 1996; Renard et al. 1998; Imhoff et al. 2003; Chen and Liu 2002; Chen et al. 2009; Zhao et al. 2008a, b, 2010).
