Metal Uptake in Reeds from ‘Flowback’ Fluids

Study on the Reutilization of Clear Fracturing Flowback Fluids in Surfactant Flooding with Additives for Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR)

An investigation was conducted to study the reutilization of clear fracturing flowback fluids composed of viscoelastic surfactants (VES) with additives in surfactant flooding, making the process more efficient and cost-effective. The clear fracturing flowback fluids were used as surfactant flooding system with the addition of α-olefin sulfonate (AOS) for enhanced oil recovery (EOR). The interfa...

Reeds: A Responsive Sound Installation

This paper discusses the responsive sound installation Reeds. The Melbourne International Festival of the Arts commissioned the Reeds project in 2000, for exhibition on the Ornamental Lake at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Melbourne. It consists of twenty-one large floating sculptures, modeled to represent clusters of river reeds in immaculate man-made plantings. Each reed pod contained a collectio...

Nutritive metal uptake in teleost fish.

Transition metals are essential for health, forming integral components of proteins involved in all aspects of biological function. However, in excess these metals are potentially toxic, and to maintain metal homeostasis organisms must tightly coordinate metal acquisition and excretion. The diet is the main source for essential metals, but in aquatic organisms an alternative uptake route is ava...

21 kilometres north of Stewart (Figure 2-IZ-l), on the east The Silbak Premier mine is in northwest British Columbia, side of the Salmon River Valley. The original discovery of a that from 1918 to 1953 produced 4.3 million tonnes of ore high-grade vein in 1910 culminated in an underground mine grading 14.6 grams gold and 304 grams silver per tonne from sulphide-bearing stockworkveins and brecci...
