Thermochemical Treatment of Nigerian Raw Clays for Oil and Gas Drilling Operations
ChemEngineering, 2023 Sodium-based bentonite is used for drilling operations because of its high swelling capacity. This type of bentonite clay is not sourced locally in many oil- and gas-producing nations.

Biogas Upgrading Using Cation-Exchanged Bentonite Clay
Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research, 2023 The separation of CH4 and CO2 in biogas, known as biogas upgrading, can produce two valuable gas products and prevent greenhouse gas emissions. One method hereto is (vacuum-)pressure swing adsorption that involves the selective adsorption of CO2 on a sorbent.

Determining the unsaturated hydraulic conductivity of a compacted sand-bentonite mixture under constant volume and free-swell conditions [PDF]
, 2008 Highly compacted sand-bentonite mixtures are often considered as possible engineered barriers in deep high-level radioactive waste disposals. In-situ, the saturation of these barriers from their initially unsaturated state is a complex hydro-mechanical ...
