Enhancing oil recovery through waterflooding
Arid Zone Journal of Engineering, Technology and Environment, 2020 Water flooding is a simple and cheaper means of improving oil recovery from a reservoir by injecting water into the reservoir. Economic considerations suggest injection and production wells must be optimally placed considering reservoir geology, fluid properties, and well orientation.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The nanostructure, size, and function of mRNA‐loaded lipid nanoparticles are evaluated before drying, within polymer microneedles, and after rehydration. The results reveal the polymer and LNP loadings required to recover nanostructure and preserve the delivery performance in dry‐state formulations.
