Early gas kick detection in vertical wells via transient multiphase flow modelling: A review
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2020 , Article Review)
Gas influx from reservoir into the wellbore during drilling, tripping, or other operations, is a hazard. In the early stages, the influx may be nearly undetectable, but the kick can rapidly change from a seemingly steady ...
Graphene quantum dot based materials for sensing, bio-imaging and energy storage applications: a review
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2020 , Article Review)
Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) are an attractive nanomaterial consisting of a monolayer or a few layers of graphene having excellent and unique properties. GQDs are endowed with the properties of both carbon dots (CDs) and ...
Methanol Electrolysis for Hydrogen Production Using Polymer Electrolyte Membrane: A Mini-Review
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article Review)
Hydrogen (H2) has attained significant benefits as an energy carrier due to its gross calorific value (GCV) and inherently clean operation. Thus, hydrogen as a fuel can lead to global sustainability. Conventional H2 ...
Adsorption as a process for produced water treatment: A review
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article Review)
Produced water (PW) is a by-product of oil and gas operations, and its production is foreseen to increase in the upcoming years. Such an increase is justified by various entities through their projection of the expected ...
Epigenetic and breast cancer therapy: Promising diagnostic and therapeutic applications.
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article Review)
The global burden of breast cancer (BC) is increasing significantly. This trend is caused by several factors such as late diagnosis, limited treatment options for certain BC subtypes, drug resistance which all lead to poor ...
Key applications and potential limitations of ionic liquid membranes in the gas separation process of CO2, CH4, N2, H2 or mixtures of these gases from various gas streams
(
