Treatment of petroleum industry wastewater: current practices and perspectives
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Book chapter)
Petroleum industry is one of the major contributors to water pollution globally. The industry can discharge different types of pollutants that can be carcinogenic, phytotoxic, and genotoxic. The nature of these pollutants ...
Effect of Fluid Rheology on the Performance of Fibrous Fluid in Horizontal Well Cleanout
(
Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE)
, 2022 , Conference Paper)
The deposition of solids in the wellbore is a widely known problem encountered during drilling, completion, and intervention operations. Innovative cleanout fluids alleviate problems associated with inefficient hole cleaning. ...
Flow mapping of multiphase flows using a novel single stem endoscopic particle image velocimetry instrument
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2011 , Conference Paper)
Particle image velocimetry (PIV) is a successful flow mapping technique which can optically quantify large portions of a flow regime. This enables the method to be completely non-intrusive. The ability to be non-intrusive ...
The need for speed - optimal CO<inf>2</inf> hydrogenation processes selection via mixed integer linear programming
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2022 , Article)
The race towards mitigating carbon emissions led to the development of countless processes, product chemicals, and catalysts for carbon capture, storage, and utilization. The abundance of data and potential pathways for ...
Investigation of Matrix Damage and Remediation Methods of Preformed Particle Gel Conformance Control Treatments in Carbonate Reservoirs
(
Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE)
, 2022 , Conference Paper)
Preformed Particle Gels (PPGs) have been widely applied to control excessive water production in mature oil fields with fractures or fracture-like features, especially in sandstones, but with limited attention to carbonates. ...
GHG emission reduction via multiple fuel options in carbon-constrained industrial clusters
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2023 , Book chapter)
This paper primarily investigates the effect of incorporating multiple fuel options onto carbon constrained industrial clusters. The purpose of doing so was to maximize the profit through the optimal allocation of multiple ...
Application of various water soluble polymers in gas hydrate inhibition
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article Review)
Formation of hydrates in gas transmission lines due to high pressures and low temperatures is a serious problem in the oil and gas industry with potential hazards and/or economic losses. Kinetic hydrate inhibitors are water ...
Magneto-Mechanical and Thermal Properties of Nd-Fe-B-Epoxy-Bonded Composite Materials
(
MDPI
, 2023 , Article)
Polymer-bonded magnets are a class of composite material that combines the magnetic properties of metal particles and the molding possibility of a polymeric matrix. This class of materials has shown huge potential for ...
A universal transportation model for reverse osmosis systems
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
This paper presents a new transport model for reverse osmosis (RO) systems, which combines irreversible thermodynamics, together with solution-diffusion theory. The simplifications adopted by the classical theory for ...
Clogging vs. fouling in immersed membrane bioreactors
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
Whilst the fouling of MBR membrane surfaces has been very extensively explored by the academic community, there is an increasingly widespread recognition by practitioners of the issue of clogging of membrane channels with ...
