An Investigation of the Swelling Kinetics of Bentonite Systems Using Particle Size Analysis
Magzoub, Musaab I.; Hussein, Ibnelwaleed A.; Nasser, Mustafa S.; Mahmoud, Mohamed; Sultan, Abdullah S.; Benamor, Abdelbaki... more authors ... less authors ( Taylor and Francis Inc. , 2019 , Article)Particles size distribution (PSD) is introduced as a tool for analysis of bentonite aggregation and swelling kinetics. Raw Ca-bentonite was purified using a combined wet sieving and sedimentation processes, followed by ... -
Destabilization and treatment of produced water-oil emulsions using anionic polyacrylamide with electrolyate of aluminum sulphate and ferrous sulphate
Ma, He; Sultan, Abdullah S.; Shawabkeh, Reyad; Nasser, Mustafa S. ( Society of Petroleum Engineers , 2016 , Conference Paper)Surfactant and polymer flooding technology can greatly enhance the oil recovery through the expansion of sweeping and displacing efficiency. The recovered oil from surfactant and polymer flooding emulsifies the residual ... -
Influence of Surfactant Structure on the Stability of Water-in-Oil Emulsions under High-Temperature High-Salinity Conditions
Mohamed, Abdelhalim I. A.; Sultan, Abdullah S.; Hussein, Ibnelwaleed A.; Al-Muntasheri, Ghaithan A. ( Hindawi Limited , 2017 , Article)Emulsified water-in-oil (W/O) systems are extensively used in the oil industry for water control and acid stimulation. Emulsifiers are commonly utilized to emulsify a water-soluble material to form W/O emulsion. The selection ... -
Novel fluorinated surfactants for enhanced oil recovery in carbonate reservoirs
Al-Amodi, Adel O.; Al-Mubaiyedh, Usamah A.; Sultan, Abdullah S.; Kamal, Muhammad Shahzad; Hussein, Ibnelwaleed A. ( Wiley-Liss Inc. , 2016 , Article)Novel surfactant‐polymer (SP) formulations containing fluorinated amphoteric surfactant (surfactant‐A) and fluorinated anionic surfactant (surfactant‐B) with partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (HPAM) were evaluated for ... -
Proton conducting blend membranes: physical, morphological and electronic properties
Al-Ahmed, Amir; Nazal, Mazen Khaled; Sultan, Abdullah S.; Adewole , Jimoh K.; Zaidi, Syed Javaid ( Springer Verlag , 2017 , Article)Blend membranes of sulfonated poly(ether ether ketone) (SPEEK) and sulfonated polyetherimide (SPEI) have been prepared and investigated as a potential polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) for direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC). ... -
Review on Surfactant Flooding: Phase Behavior, Retention, IFT, and Field Applications
Kamal, Muhammad Shahzad; Hussein, Ibnelwaleed A.; Sultan, Abdullah S. ( American Chemical Society , 2017 , Article Review)Surfactant flooding is an important technique used in enhanced oil recovery to reduce the amount of oil in pore space of matrix rock. Surfactants are injected to mobilize residual oil by lowering the interfacial tension ... -
Rheological and thermal properties of novel surfactant-polymer systems for EOR applications
Mali, Izhar A.; Al-Mubaiyedh, Usamah A.; Sultan, Abdullah S.; Kamal, Muhammad Shahzad; Hussein, Ibnelwaleed A. ( Wiley-Liss Inc. , 2016 , Article)In this work, two surfactant-polymer (SP) systems were evaluated for enhanced oil recovery applications. The first SP system contained partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide and alkyl polyethylene glycol ether-based non-ionic ... -
Synthesis, Characterization and Surface Properties of Amidosulfobetaine Surfactants Bearing Odd-Number Hydrophobic Tail
shakil Hussain, S. M.; Animashaun, Mustapha Alao; Kamal, Muhammad Shahzad; Ullah, Nisar; Hussein, Ibnelwaleed A.; Sultan, Abdullah S.... more authors ... less authors ( Springer Verlag , 2016 , Article)Three amidosulfobetaine surfactants were synthesized namely: 3‐(N‐pentadecanamidopropyl‐N,N‐dimethyl ammonium) propanesulfonate (2a); 3‐(N‐heptadecanamidopropyl‐N,N‐dimethyl ammonium) propanesulfonate (2b), and ...
