Formulation of fumed silica grease from waste transformer oil as base oil

Electrical and Thermal investigation of Transformer Oil base Nanofluids

Transformer oil is one of the most important materials which are used in electrical and transformer industrial. The main function is protection and insulation of transformer core components, as well as heat transfer from its core to environment. Improving the performance of this material has been one of the researchers' concerns. The effect of different nanoparticle on the electrical breakdown ...

removal of oil and grease from an oil refinery effluent

in this research performed during 1993-1994, the effluent of behran oil refmery, in south of tehran, which produces different types of industrial oil and greases, was studied and 3 methods of gravity separation, coagulation and flocculation and dissolved air flotation were investigated. in the first phase of the survey, the quality and quantity of the effluent were determined. this showed an av...

Fumed and Precipitated Hydrophilic Silica Suspension Gels in Mineral Oil: Stability and Rheological Properties

Hydrophilic fumed silica (FS) and precipitated silica (PS) powders were suspended in mineral oil; increasing the silica volume fraction (φ in the suspension led to the formation of sol, pre-gel, and gel states. Gelation took place at lower φ values in the FS than the PS suspension because of the lower silanol density on the FS surface. The shear stresses and dynamic moduli of the FS and PS susp...

Dibenzyl Disulfide in Transformer Oil

Biodiesel Oil Derived from Biomass Solid Waste

Oils of a significant value both as fuels as well as for cosmetic applications can be extracted from the fruits of the jojoba plant. After extracting the oil, the remains of the fruit can still be further utilized as a solid fuel in furnaces or feedstock to animals. In the present work, the solid waste jojoba remains have been processed chemically to extract more biodiesel oil. The physical and...
