Calcium carbonate particles loaded with triethanolamine and polyethylenimine for enhanced corrosion protection of epoxy coated steel
( Elsevier Ltd , 2020 , Article)Calcium carbonate particles were synthesized and loaded with a mixture of two corrosion inhibitors, triethanolamine (TEA) and polyethylenimine (PEI). These particles can serve as pH-sensitive additives in epoxy coatings ... -
Effect of surface morphology on methane interaction with calcite: a DFT study
( Royal Society of Chemistry , 2020 , Article)Natural gas, consisting primarily of methane, is found in carbonate reservoirs of which calcite is major component. However, the complexity and heterogeneity of carbonate reservoirs remain a major challenge in estimating ... -
Inhibitor loaded calcium carbonate microparticles for corrosion protection of epoxy-coated carbon steel
( Elsevier Ltd , 2019 , Article)pH-sensitive calcium carbonate microparticles were loaded with polyethyleneimine (PEI), a corrosion inhibitor, and used as anti-corrosion additive in epoxy coatings applied on carbon steel. The presence of PEI in the CaCO3 ... -
Investigation on the effect of mud additives on the gelation performance of PAM/PEI system for lost circulation control
( Society of Petroleum Engineers , 2021 , Conference Paper)Lost circulation is one of the most common problems in the drilling of oil and gas wells where mud escapes through natural or induced fractures. Lost circulation can have severe consequences from increasing the operational ... -
Paper mill sludge as a source of sugars for use in the production of bioethanol and isoprene
( MDPI AG , 2020 , Article)Paper mill sludge (PMS) solids are predominantly comprised of cellulosic fibers and fillers rejected during the pulping or paper making process. Most sludges are dewatered and discharged into landfills or land spread at a ... -
Synthesis and evaluation of a novel polyacrylamide functionalized nano-silica as a calcium carbonate inhibitor in upstream applications
( Elsevier B.V. , 2022 , Article)Calcium carbonate scale forms in production and injection wells, precipitating upon pressure and temperature changes, incompatible water mixing, and dehydration. Production shutdown is one of the most dramatic consequences ...
