Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Bamboo charcoal–based extruded activated carbons were prepared via molding, pre‐oxidation, carbonization, and steam activation, with coal tar, phenolic resin, and their mixtures employed as binders based on practical availability and technical feasibility. This study focused on the regulatory effects of binders on the mechanical properties and

Catagenetic trends in composition and structure parameters of asphaltenes
GeoresursyСatagenetic transformations of asphaltenes of organic matter (OM) from recent sediments and fossil rocks were studied on rocks sampled from different sedimentary basins (Timan-Pechora, Mezen, West Siberian, Kuznetsk, Aldan-Maya and Middle Amur) of Russia.

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Surfactant‐modified nanoparticles adsorb at the oil–water interface, enabling interfacial stabilization and microemulsion formation. Abstract This study systematically investigated the interfacial behaviour of silicon dioxide (SiO2) and aluminium oxide (Al2O3) nanoparticles (NPs) functionalized with cationic (CTAB), anionic (SDS), and nonionic (Triton ...

Compatibility Assessment of Crude Oil Blends Using Different Methods
Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2017 Today, opportunity crude oils and their blends have attracted the attention of oil companies looking to increase their cross refinery margin. However, when crude oils are blended in the wrong proportions or even the wrong order, they can precipitate ...

Resonance‐induced restoration of rock permeability degraded by heavy components of crude oil
Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.Resonance‐induced changes occur in filtration properties of sedimentary rocks in crude paraffin oil flow under acoustic vibrations. Experimental data on (a) pressure drop; (b) permeability; (c) pressure at the rock inlet; and (d) pressure at the rock outlet are presented.

An assessment of stress and production rate of sucker rod heat pipes in oil well pumping system
Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.The sucker rod pumping system is the preferred oil extraction technique. The concept about equipping the hollow vacuum space in solid sucker rods with heat pipe has been scrutinized in terms of stress and oil production evaluation. Abstract The implementation of the heat pipe concept in sucker rods for oil pumping systems negates the requirement for an
