A porous medium is a material that contains pores (voids or spaces) in its structure, allowing for the movement of fluids (liquids or gases) through it. The presence of these pores can significantly influence the physical, chemical, and biological properties of the medium. Porous media can be found in various natural and synthetic materials, including soil, rock, concrete, sponges, and certain types of filters.
