Reverse combustion (RC) involves supplying oxidant flow countercurrent to the direction of front propagation in a combustible porous medium. Dielectric breakdown (DEB) involves applying a large voltage to propagate a front which separates poorly from more highly conducting chemically altered material. Both processes have application for in-situ fossil fuel recovery technologies. They are related in that both exhibit self-organization, in the form of channels, which is strongly influenced by geochemical factors and can be described by similar mathematics. This paper reviews the state-of-the-art concerning theoretical and experimental investigations of pattern formation in these two closely related displacement front processes.
