Evaluation of Egyptian bentonite and nano-bentonite as drilling mud
Nano-particles of bentonite have been prepared by nano-grinding. The nano-bentonite was characterized by X-ray fluorescence analysis (XRF), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and Transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The

Preliminary test on modified clays for seawater resistant drilling fluids [PDF]
The quality of a drilling fluid declines in salt water conditions. An engineered clay (HYPER clay) was developed for geosynthetic clay liners with enhanced resistance to aggressive conditions.

Phytoremediation of Wastewater From Oil Well Drilling: Potential of Different Plant Species
Purple fountain grass (Cenchrus setaceus “Rubrum”) is a promising plant for using in constructed wetlands treating complex oil drilling effluents. ABSTRACT This study evaluated the removal of contaminants present in wastewater from oil well drilling in the presence of three plant species: water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes), cattail (Typha ...

ABSTRACT Wine yeasts play a central role in alcoholic fermentation and significantly contribute to the sensory attributes of wines through cellular autolysis during lees aging (sur lie), especially in white wines. This process releases organic compounds that alter the wine's chemical and sensory profile.

Adsorption and diffusion behavior of ammonium on bentonite modified loess liners
Bentonite-modified loess has been used as bottom liner material for municipal waste landfills. However, because the diffusion and adsorption behavior of pollutants was not determined, the performance of the bentonite-modified losses could not evaluated ...

Inclusion of chemical effect in a fully coupled THM finite element code [PDF]
Bentonite-rich clays can be used as a buffer / backfill material in deep geological repositories for nuclear waste. The prediction of the long-term performance of a buffer / backfill in such a complex environment, where the temperature, humidity and ...
