Thermo-Rheological Characterization of Natural Deep Eutectic Solvents (Nades) Used in Co2 Capture
(Environmental Engineering, 2019 , Master Thesis)
The rheological behavior of a fluid is an important property that has a distinct
impact on its flow behavior, which influences viscosity dependent phenomena and
applications such as pumping, mass transfer rates, and ...
A NOVEL HYBRID ELECTRO-COAGULATION/ FORWARD OSMOSIS MEMBRANE SYSTEM FOR TREATMENT OF PRODUCED WATER
(Environmental Engineering, 2018 , Master Thesis)
Large volumes of fresh water are consumed in the process of oil and gas
exploration, producing even larger volumes of highly contaminated produced water
(PW) which exhibits a major environmental problem.
This work ...
Utilizing Steel Slag in the Removal of Suspended Solids from Dewatered Construction Water: A Mechanistic Study
(Environmental Engineering, 2018 , Master Thesis)
Construction dewatering is an operation used to remove shallow groundwater infiltrated into a construction site; this technique is used in most of the construction projects. After collecting the water from the construction ...
Density Functional Theory Study of Dry Reforming of Methane
(Environmental Engineering, 2018 , Master Thesis)
the recent years, the global warming effects are being catastrophic and they start hitting new areas. These effects have a direct relation with the amount of greenhouse gases emitted into the atmosphere. CO2 and other ...
Crossflow Microfiltration of Tight Emulsions and Suspended Colloids by Ceramic Membranes
(Environmental Engineering, 2018 , Master Thesis)
Produced water is known as the largest waste stream associated with the oil and gas extraction process from onshore and offshore fields; that is found in the form of either oil in water (o/w) or water in oil (o/w) emulsion. ...
Design And Process Economics Of A Monoethylene Glycol (Meg) Recovery System From Produced Water
(Environmental Engineering, 2019 , Master Thesis)
Monoethylene glycol (MEG) is a widely used hydrate inhibitor in the oil and gas industry to reduce the risk of hydrate formation in pipelines that could cause a blockage. Large volumes of MEG are used annually as an effective ...
Novel Adsorbents For The Removal Of Oil From Produced Water
(Environmental Engineering, 2019 , Master Thesis)
Produced water is water that is brought up to the surface of the well during oil and gas operations. Almost all oil and gas wells generate huge amounts of produced water as part of the production process. These large volumes ...
A Novel Electrocoagulation System For Produced Water Treatment
(Environmental Engineering, 2018 , Master Thesis)
Produced water, which is generated from the Oil & Gas industries, is becoming a global concern due to its complex composition and large volumes. This thesis introduces a novel electrocoagulation system for the treatment ...
A New Electrocoagulation Electrode Configuration for The Treatment of Secondary Treated Wastewater
(Environmental Engineering, 2019 , Master Thesis)
Electrocoagulation (EC) is an effective method that is applied to treat a wide range of wastewater. A new electrode configuration is being proposed with the application of the Dielectrophoresis (DEP) force which is expected ...
Development and Evaluation of Fibrous Fluid Formulations for Horizontal Gas and Oil Well Cleanout
(Environmental Engineering, 2021 , Master Thesis)
Cuttings substantial buildup on the downside of the wellbore is a challenging problem that encounters oil and gas drilling operations. Field reports indicate that inefficient hole cleaning increases the nonproductive time ...
