(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
The effect of amphiphilic Pluronic F127 additive on the ultrafiltration performance of polysulfone (PSf)/sulfonated poly (ether ether ketone) (SPEEK) blend flat sheet membranes was investigated in the present work. Fixed ...
Effect of rock mineralogy on Hot-CO2 injection for enhanced gas recovery
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
Conventional gas reservoirs are one of the viable options for CO2 enhanced gas recovery and sequestration. Injection of hot CO2 into depleted reservoirs is expected to improve gas recovery. Static adsorption and core ...
