[ 1 ] - Theoretical and Experimental Investigation of SO2 Adsorption from Flue Gases in a Fluidized Bed of Copper Oxide

Among the air pollutants, sulfur dioxide has been given special emphasis for posing dangers to the environment. SO2 emissions in the air have harmful effects on human health and the environment. Respiratory diseases and exacerbation of heart diseases are among dangerous symptoms for human health, especially when high concentrations of SO2 are emitted. Therefore, in the present study, a wide var...

[ 2 ] - بررسی تجزیه زیستی نفت خام توسط آلکانی‌ورراکس دیزلولی: سویه جداسازی شده از رسوبات منطقه ساحلی خلیج فارس

سابقه و هدف: آلودگی‌های نفتی، یکی از مشکلات عمده تهدید کننده محیط زیست به شمار می روند. امروزه روش تجزیه زیستی با استفاده از باکتری‌های بومی تجزیه کننده هیدروکربن به دلیل مناسب بودن از لحاظ اقتصادی و زیست محیطی مورد توجه می باشد. آلکانی‌ورراکس به عنوان یک باکتری تجزیه کننده هیدروکربن در محیط های دریایی آلوده به نفت خام شناخته شده است. این مطالعه با هدف بررسی توانایی تجزیه زیستی نفت خام توسط آلک...

[ 3 ] - Optimization of Swelling Percentage of Poly(AAm-co-AA) in BaCl2 Salt Solution Using Response Surface Methodology (RSM)

: Unwanted water production from oil and gas reservoirs is a serious problem for producers. Preformed particle gel (PPG) treatment is a benefit approach to control excess water production. Swelling percentage of PPG samples in saline water is a key factor affecting the efficiency of the water conformance process. In this study, an efficient series of PPGs were synthesized and their swelling beh...

[ 4 ] - Beyond the Limitations of API RP-14E Erosional Velocity -A Field Study for Gas Condensate Wells

Fluid velocity has the potential to cause severe erosion damage to oil & gas production infrastructure. In order to avoid or alleviate damage due to erosion, the American Petroleum Institute Recommended Practice (API RP) 14E recommends a threshold fluid velocity for production tubing and pipelines. However, field and laboratory data have proven that the applied empirical constants, known as C-f...

[ 5 ] - Diesel Oil Upgradation by Ultrasound Irradiation: A Study on the Effects of Main Operational Parameters

The main objective of this work is to upgrade a diesel oil sample from Shiraz Oil Refining Co. (SORC) to reduce the sulfur content, as well as break the kinematic viscosity of the feedstock. Effects of several operating parameters including volume of hydrogen peroxide/acetic acid as an oxidant mixture, amounts of tetraoctylammonium bromide as a phase transfer agent (PTA) and phosphotungstic aci...

[ 7 ] - Computer Simulation of Hydrodynamic Behavior of Aggregative Fluidized Beds

Hydrodynamic behavior of aggregative fluidized beds has been studied and a model proposed for the prediction of different characteristics of fluidized beds. According to this model, a computer program is prepared and the hydrodynamic behavior of some industrial units has been simulated.

[ 8 ] - Effect of Salinity, pH, and Temperature on Stability of Gas Condensate in Water Emulsions Using Different Surfactants

Light hydrocarbons in water emulsions are formed in many gas refinery wastewaters, and its stability depends on some parameters such as temperature, pH and salinity. In this study, different surfactants have been used to prepare gas condensates in water emulsion along with four surfactant kinds namely, Span 80, Tween 80, CTAB, SDS and Span 80 and Tween 80 mixture. For this purpose,...
