A thermodynamic study of propanol reforming in presence of hydrazine for hydrogen production
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Thermodynamic analysis of hydrogen production from propanol reforming reactions, by decomposition and steam reforming, in presence of hydrazine was evaluated as a function of temperature (300-900 K) at a constant pressure ...
Developing pretreatment methods to promote the production of biopolymer and bioethanol from residual algal biomass (RAB)
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
This study investigates the effect of acidic pretreatment (HT-ACPT), enzymatic pretreatment (ENZ-PT), and microwave laser-hydrogen peroxide-Fe-nanoparticle pretreatment (Mv-H2O2-Fe-PT) on the production of bioethanol ...
Electrochemical removal of pyrite scale using green formulations
(
Nature Research
, 2021 , Article)
Pyrite scale formation is a critical problem in the hydrocarbon production industry; it affects the flow of hydrocarbon within the reservoir and the surface facilities. Treatments with inorganic acids, such as HCl, results ...
Effect of strain on gas adsorption in tight gas carbonates: A DFT study
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2021 , Article)
The geometrical properties of the reservoir rocks are usually affected by natural thermodynamics or environmental changes. These factors may modify the distribution and the amount of gas in place in the reservoir. To address ...
Smart epoxy coating modified with isophorone diisocyanate microcapsules and cerium organophosphate for multilevel corrosion protection of carbon steel
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2020 , Article)
This study investigates the corrosion resistance of steel plates coated with epoxy-based coatings modified with microcapsules loaded with isophorone diisocyanate and with pH-sensitive cerium tri(bis(2-ethylhexyl)phosphate ...
Ab Initio molecular dynamics of the dissolution of oilfield pyrite scale using borax
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2020 , Article)
Iron sulfide scales, particularly pyrite, form in oil and gas underground tubing and surface equipment thus blocking the flow of fluids and halting production. Therefore, the development of physicochemical processes for ...
Comparative study between adsorption and membrane technologies for the removal of mercury
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2021 , Article)
Mercury is one of the most detrimental by-products of industrial activities, such as mining and fossil fuel combustion. What differentiates this contaminant from other pollutants is its bioaccumulation and rapid distribution ...
Co-pyrolysis of polyolefin mixtures and oil palm fibre for the production of liquid fuel: kinetics and thermodynamic study
(
Springer
, 2022 , Article)
Studies on the co-pyrolysis of plastic waste and biomass to obtain sustainable liquid fuel, while reducing the amount of unwanted plastics and agricultural solid residues, have gained global attention recently. The purpose ...
Development of pH-Controlled Aluminum-Based Polymeric Gel for Conformance Control in Sour Gas Reservoirs
(
American Chemical Society
, 2020 , Article)
Excessive water production from natural gas reservoirs is a main challenge facing the industry nowadays. Polymeric gelants have been widely applied to seal the water production zones, leading to a more feasible production ...
Valorization of biodiesel byproduct glycerol to glycerol carbonate using highly reusable apatite-like catalyst derived from waste Gastropoda Mollusca
(
Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH
, 2020 , Article)
Predominantly, calcium oxide from the calcined waste Gastropoda Mollusca (Achatina fulica sp.) was post-functionalized and stabilized using trisodium phosphate to obtain an apatite-like catalyst (snail shell apatite, SNS-AP) ...
