Investigation of gas-liquid flow using electrical resistance tomography and wavelet analysis techniques for early kick detection
(
American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
, 2021 , Conference)
Gas kick is a well control problem and is defined as the sudden influx of formation gas into the wellbore. This sudden influx, if not controlled, may lead to a blowout problem. An accidental spark during a blowout can lead ...
Improvement of PVA gel properties for cell immobilization
(
Avestia Publishing
, 2019 , Conference)
This study investigates the characterization and the ability of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) gel to be used in the area of wastewater treatment as biomass immobilization matrix. The PVA matrix was prepared through the ...
CO2 Absorption Capacity and its Enthalpy of Absorption in Aqueous Blend of MDEA/Piperazine/Arginine
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2020 , Conference)
In this work, the solubility data of CO2 in aqueous blends of N-Methyldiethanolamine, Piperazine and Arginine (MDEA/PZ/ARG) of a total concentration of two moles is presented. CO2partial pressure was varied from 9 to 99 ...
A mechanistic gas kick model to simulate gas in a riser with water and synthetic-based drilling fluid
(
Society of Petroleum Engineers
, 2020 , Conference)
This paper presents a simple mechanistic model to describe a gas kick in a drilling riser with water- based mud (WBM) and synthetic-based mud (SBM). This model can estimate key kick parameters such as the change in the ...
A CFD Investigation on the Effect of IPSBR Operational Conditions on Liquid Phase Hydrodynamics
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2021 , Conference)
This study used a computational fluid dynamics simulation of an inert-particle spouted-bed reactor, which consists of a cylindrical vessel with a conical base, to investigate the effect of different operational parameters ...
Synthesis and Characterization of Fe3O4 Nanoparticles Using Different Experimental Methods
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2020 , Conference)
This paper reports a comparative study on the synthesis of Fe3O4 nanoparticles using three different methods, namely; Co-precipitation, Sonochemical and Solvothermal methods. Ferric chloride hexahydrate (FeCl3.6H2O) and ...
Treatment of saline wastewater and carbon dioxide capture using electrodialysis
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2021 , Conference)
In this study, electrodialysis was used to achieve a combined action of capturing carbon dioxide and treating high-salinity water to produce hydrochloric acid, hydrogen gas, and carbonate and bicarbonate salts. Sodium ...
Rheological characterization of NA2CO3 activated calcium bentonite for oil and gas drilling applications
(
AIChE
, 2015 , Conference)
Calcium bentonite was activated with soda ash (Na2CO3) at various ratios and due to the ion exchange; the original Ca-bentonite was converted to Na-bentonite. It was found that the Na2CO3 activation improves the swelling ...
Detailed exergy analysis of full scale LNG plant
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2018 , Conference)
Sustainability is one of the major challenges faced by the industrial sector as it is driven by both environmental and economic factors. Energy demands are increasing and, to date, most of the supply is generated via ...
Advanced Block Copolymer Membranes for Oily Industrial Wastewater Treatment
(
Qatar University Press
, 2023 , Conference)
Tremendous amounts of oily wastewater are produced daily from industrial processes, including petrochemical, textile, leather, and steel processing. This wastewater is a huge challenge to the environment and industry uses ...
