simulation and experimental studies for prediction mineral scale formation in oil field during mixing of injection and formation water

abstract: mineral scaling in oil and gas production equipment is one of the most important problem that occurs while water injection and it has been recognized to be a major operational problem. the incompatibility between injected and formation waters may result in inorganic scale precipitation in the equipment and reservoir and then reduction of oil production rate and water injection rate. ...

Soil water regime and water concervation efficiency in a non-irrigated semi-arid environment

EHPnet: Water Environment Federation

Each year, wastewater treatment plants in the United States process more than 11.5 trillion gallons of sewage water, enough to fill Utah's Great Salt Lake more than twice. This sewage has the potential to cause catastrophic environmental damage, and it is up to the people who operate the 16,024 wastewater treatment plants in the United States to ensure that it does not harm the lakes, rivers, a...

Special issue: Barriers to Sustainable Management of Water Quantity and Quality Flood protection—sustainability Issues

There has been much recent emphasis on sustainable development of water resources in that the needs of the present generation are fulfilled without compromising future generations to meet their needs. Also, systems of flood protection and management are being increasingly considered in the context of sustainable development. Destructive floods have jeopardized settlements located near rivers si...

Electrochemical and Tribological Behaviour of Oxide Dispersion Strengthened Duplex Stainless Steel in Mine Water Environment

Abstract This work investigated the electrochemical and aqueous tribological behavior of hot pressed 2205 duplex stainless steel (DSS). DSS sintered composites of different volume percent (% vol) of partially stabilized zirconia (PSZ) was developed using powder metallurgy (PM) technique. Electrochemical behaviour was studied at room temperature, using open circuit potential and potentiody...
