Configurational diffusion transport of water and oil in dual continuum shales
Understanding fluid flow in shale rocks is critical for the recovery of unconventional energy resources. Despite the extensive research conducted on water and oil flow in shales, significant uncertainties and discrepancies remain in reported experimental

Oil uptake and texture development in fried potato slices
Abstract The objective of this work was to study oil absorption and the kinetics of texture development of fried potato slices during frying. Prior to frying, potato slices were blanched in hot water at 85 °C for 3.5 min. Unblanched slices were used as the control.

Marine crude-oil biodegradation: a central role for interspecies interactions [PDF]
The marine environment is highly susceptible to pollution by petroleum, and so it is important to understand how microorganisms degrade hydrocarbons, and thereby mitigate ecosystem damage. Our understanding about the ecology, physiology, biochemistry and

Effect of light-salting and drying pre-treatments on physical characteristics and oil uptake in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) nuggets [PDF]
Reduction of oil uptake in battered and breaded products is one of the critical aspects to obtain a safe and good quality product. In this study, combined effects of light salting (8, 10 %) and microwaving (180 °C, for 30, 60 and 90 s) pre-treatments on ...

Implications of "peak oil" for atmospheric CO2 and climate
Unconstrained CO2 emission from fossil fuel burning has been the dominant cause of observed anthropogenic global warming. The amounts of "proven" and potential fossil fuel reserves are uncertain and debated.

Self-assembly of Tween 80 micelles as nanocargos for oregano and trans-cinnamaldehyde plant-derived compounds [PDF]
The self-assembly of Tween 80 (T80) micelles loaded with plant-based oregano essential oil (OR) and trans-cinnamaldehyde (TCA) was studied. The effect of different factors, including the surfactant to oil ratio, the presence of sodium chloride, thermal ...
