Phase behavior in petroleum fluids (A Detailed Descriptive and Illustrative Account) [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 This chapter presents a descriptive and illustrative account of phase behavior in the seven naturally occurring petroleum fluids and ties all the known eleven phase-transition concepts in a unified narrative. The figures and tables contained in this report are designed so that they could effectively support the discussion about molecular make-up of ...

Polar Pore Surface of Polyamide Membranes Enabling Efficient Solvent Mixture Separation
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A polyamide membrane with polar pore surfaces and relatively large pore is fabricated through interfacial polymerization between polyethyleneimine and trimesoyl chloride. Rapid separation of solvents with polarity differences is achieved by the synergistic effects of pore polarity and size sieving.

A Strong and Water‐Retaining Biomass Adhesive Inspired by Tofu
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Drawing inspiration from the formation mechanism of the traditional food tofu, a strong and water‐retaining adhesive is designed using the soybean meal (SM) oxidized by glucose oxidase (GOx) and calcium sulfate oligomer (CSO). This design strategy effectively addresses the conflicting requirements of water‐resistant bonding strength and water retention

How to use Big Data technologies to optimize operations in Upstream Petroleum Industry [PDF]
arXiv, 2014 "Big Data is the oil of the new economy" is the most famous citation during the three last years. It has even been adopted by the World Economic Forum in 2011. In fact, Big Data is like crude! It's valuable, but if unrefined it cannot be used. It must be broken down, analyzed for it to have value.
