Nutrient Stimulation of Indigenous Microorganisms for Oil-in-Water Emulsion in a Medium Temperature Petroleum Reservoir with Ca2+-Rich Brine

open access: yesGeofluids, 2021
One of the challenges indigenous microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR) is facing is the high percentage of divalent ions, which obstruct the growth and metabolism of microorganisms and destabilize the oil-in-water (o/w) emulsion.

Volumetric and conductivity studies of the interaction between levocetirizine dihydrochloride and the amino acids l-alanine and l-glutamine in aqueous solutions [PDF]

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
Levocetirizine dihydrochloride (LCTZ) is a second-generation antihistamine known for its efficacy without sedation. However, the binding mechanism with plasma protein which makes it devoid of sedative effects is yet to be uncovered.

Development of a microbial dewaxing agent using three spore forming bacteria [PDF]

open access: yesBioresources and Bioprocessing
Microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR) is a cost effective and efficient method for recovering residual oil. However, the presence of wax (paraffin) in residual oil can substantially reduce the efficiency of MEOR.
