A surface-subsurface model for the tecno-economic and risk evaluation of thermal EOR projects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The global resources of unconventional oil such as heavy oil, extra-heavy oil, and bitumen are vast and are expected to play an increasingly important role in meeting the world‘s future energy needs.

Recovery of linseed oil dispersed within an oil-in-water emulsion using hydrophilic membrane by rotating disk filtration system

open access: yes, 2009
The purpose of this paper is to investigate a method to recover the linseed oil from oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion by a rotating disk filtration system. The influence of transmembrane pressure (TMP), disk rotating speed, and disk geometry on permeate flux ...

A Super‐Adhesive Air Filter With Capillarity‐Mediated Spontaneous Particle Absorption via Dynamic Bond Exchange

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
We address the inherently weak particle adhesion of conventional air filters by coating a dynamically crosslinked adhesive layer that delivers capillarity‐driven strong adhesion and particle absorption mediated by dynamic bond exchange. The resulting enhancement in particle adhesion enables efficient ultrafast (up to 20 m s−1) and omnidirectional ...

EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF GAS INJECTION ENHANCED OIL RECOVERY IN SHALE RESERVOIRS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Miscible gas injection enhanced oil recovery (huff-n-puff gas injection) has received increased attention especially in the unconventional plays like the Eagle Ford, where oil recovery is as low as 5 – 10% (Sheng, 2015). An increase in 1% of recovery

Engineering Strain‐Stiffening Granular Hydrogels for 3D‐Printed Tissue‐Mimicry

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A 3D‐printable strain‐stiffening double‐network granular hydrogel (SDGH) enables independent, region‐specific tuning of toe (EToe) and heel (EHeel) moduli through control of microgel packing and network composition. This platform replicates tissue‐like nonlinear mechanics and allows fabrication of high‐fidelity, multilayered aortic valves with ...

Wag-co2 Light Oil Recovery From Deep Offshore Carbonate Reservoirs

open access: yes, 2015
Brazilian pre-salt reservoirs are constituted by carbonate rock and light oil with some CO2 and high solution gas ratio A sustainable production of oil from pre-salt reservoirs requires a destination for the produced CO2 to mitigate its emission into the

E. coli Extracellular Matrix: A Tunable Composite With Hierarchical Structure

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The complex composite‐like mechanical behavior of E. coli biofilm matrix is the result of a synergic contribution of the rigid curli and swelling pEtN‐cellulose, and emerges from specific ratio and assembly conditions. The interactions between the two fibers govern biofilm hydration and characteristic wrinkling patterns, providing crucial insights for ...

High Center‐of‐Mass, Multi‐Legged Soft Robots Powered by Geometrically Encoded Liquid Crystal Elastomer Arc Appendages

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Inspired by the octopus and the golden wheel spider, soft robots with liquid crystal elastomer arc fibers as appendages are fabricated to transcend surface constraints through an elevated center of mass and minimal contact footprints. By leveraging curvature‐encoded deformation‐recovery cycles, these robots exhibit contractile, torsional, and flexural ...
