Photovoltaic Solar Cells and Panels Waste in Jordan: Figures, Facts, and Concerns
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Even though the Kingdom of Jordan is moving in the right direction and adopting clean energy sources such as PV plants, the waste problem will eventually emerge within a few decades and will be an overwhelming issue if not ...
Integration of solar chimney power plant with photovoltaic for co-cooling, power production, and water desalination
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article)
This work explores the technical possibilities of increasing the efficiency of a standard solar chimney power plant (SCPP) by integrating it with photovoltaic (PV) panels. The integration is possible by using the collector ...
A novel hybrid solar chimney power plant: Performance analysis and deployment feasibility
(
John Wiley and Sons Ltd
, 2022 , Article)
This study presents a novel hybrid solar chimney power plant (HSCPP) design. The HSCPP preserves the typical solar chimney power plant (SCPP), with an additional seawater pool at the base and water sprinklers at the top. ...
Synthesis of Nanosilica for the Removal of Multicomponent Cd2+ and Cu2+ from Synthetic Water: An Experimental and Theoretical Study
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Copper and cadmium ions are among the top 120 hazardous chemicals listed by the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) that can bind to organic and inorganic chemicals. Silica is one of the most abundant ...
A robust Gaussian process regression-based model for the determination of static Young's modulus for sandstone rocks
(
Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH
, 2023 , Article)
Static Young's modulus (Es) is one of the leading mechanical rock properties. The Es can be measured from experimental lab methods. However, these methods are costly, time-consuming, and challenging to collect samples. ...
Effect of Fluid Viscosity and Fiber Length on the Performance of Fibrous Fluid in Horizontal Well Cleanout
(
Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE)
, 2023 , Article)
During drilling, completion, and intervention operations, solids can deposit in the wellbore. Innovative cleanout fluids reduce the problems associated with inadequate hole cleaning. Various methods have been developed to ...
Machine Learning for Capillary Pressure Estimation
(
Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE)
, 2022 , Article)
Capillary pressure plays an essential role in controlling multiphase flow in porous media and is often difficult to be estimated at subsurface conditions. The Leverett capillary pressure function J provides a convenient ...
Phosphonated Lower-Molecular-Weight Polyethyleneimines as Oilfield Scale Inhibitors: An Experimental and Theoretical Study
(
American Chemical Society
, 2022 , Article)
For many years, amino methylenephosphonate (-CH2-N-PO3H2)-based scale inhibitors (SIs) have been deployed for preventing various scales in the oil and gas industry, particularly for squeeze treatment applications. However, ...
A sustainable approach to synthesize phosphonated chitosan using ball milling and its application for oilfield scale management
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2022 , Article)
For many years, the oil and gas industry has strived to develop environmentally friendly organophosphorus-based scale inhibitors. The natural polymer chitosan has recently gained significant importance for various upstream ...
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 ...
