Theoretical Studies of a Silica Functionalized Acrylamide for Calcium Scale Inhibition
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
The calcium carbonate (CaCO3 ) scale is one of the most common oilfield scales and oil and gas production bane. CaCO3 scale can lead to a sudden halt in production or, worst-case scenario, accidents; therefore, CaCO3 scale ...
An Experimental and Kinetic Study of the Sorption of Carbon Dioxide onto Amine-Treated Oil Fly Ash
(
Hindawi Publishing Corporation
, 2016 , Article)
A new CO2 adsorbent is produced from waste oil fly ash (OFA). Ammonium hydroxide solution is used to convert OFA to activated carbon. Then, the product is used for the adsorption of CO2 from a nitrogen/carbon dioxide ...
Synthesis and performance evaluation of poly (acrylamide-co-malonic acid) as FeS scale inhibitor: experimental and theoretical investigations
(
Institute for Ionics
, 2023 , Article)
This article reports on poly (acrylamide-co-malonic acid) and poly(AM-co-MAc) copolymers that inhibit the iron sulfide scale. The iron sulfide scale is considered as one of the most challenging oilfield scales to dissolve ...
Effect of pH on acidic and basic chelating agents used in the removal of iron sulfide scales: A computational study
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
Iron sulfide scale is a major challenge in the upstream section of the oil and gas industry. It is responsible for precipitate formation in tubulars, and it damages equipment. This leads to a loss in production. Mechanical ...
Molecular and electronic structure elucidation of Fe2+/Fe3+ complexed chelators used in iron sulphide scale removal in oil and gas wells
(
Wiley-Liss Inc.
, 2019 , Article)
Quantum chemical calculations based on DFT are employed to study the electronic structure and binding affinity of chelators used in the removal of iron sulphide scales. Three chelating agents, EDTA, HEDTA, and DTPA, are ...
Flocculation and viscoelastic behavior of industrial papermaking suspensions
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2016 , Article)
The effects of the surface charge type and density C496, C492 and A130LMW polyacrylamides (PAMs) on the rheological behavior of real industrial papermaking suspensions were quantitatively related to the degree of flocculation ...
An Eco-Friendly Quaternary Ammonium Salt as a Corrosion Inhibitor for Carbon Steel in 5 M HCl Solution: Theoretical and Experimental Investigation
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
The corrosion of industrial material is a costly problem associated with global economic losses reaching trillions of US dollars in the repair of failures. Injecting corrosion inhibitors is the most practically promising ...
