Polymer flooding based enhanced oil recovery (EOR) has been proven to be effective and successful for heavy crude systems due its ability achieve favorable mobility ratios driven by viscosity alterations. Nanoparticles have the potential intensify as well various other mechanisms responsible EOR. This work addresses interfacial tension (IFT), emulsification, rheological wettability alteration characteristics of silica nanoparticle (SNP) assisted polymer flooding. The stability xanthan...
The recovery of heavy crude oil is limited because the high interfacial tension (IFT) between and aqueous phase, which restricts extent emulsification results in poor mobility. This study focuses on potential an extracted natural surfactant (Reetha) to recover by examining various mechanisms accountable for improved recovery. synergy surfactant, a polymer (xanthan gum), silica nanoparticles toward IFT behavior, emulsification, creaming index, rheology, wettability alteration, core flooding...
Abstract There are significant resources of oil shale in the western United States, which if exploited an environmentally responsible manner would provide secure access to transportation fuels. Understanding kinetics kerogen decomposition is critical designing a viable process. A dataset thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) Green River provided and two distinct data approaches—advanced isoconversional method parameter fitting used analyze data. Activation energy distributions with conversion...
In Brief This paper presents 4 consecutive cases using negative-pressure dressings (VAC) to bolster skin grafts in male genital reconstruction. this series reconstruction followed 1 case of tumor ablation and 3 debridement abscesses or Fornier's gangrene. The VAC was applied circumferentially the penis secure either directly penile shaft facilitate grafting scrotum. Graft areas ranged from 75 250 cm. All resulted successful wound coverage; minor complications are described. Three practical...
