1-butyl-3-methyl imidazolinium hydroxide ionic liquid (BMIm[OH]) is loaded on commercial low surface area Pd-Ag/α-Al2O3 solid ‎catalyst to enhance higher selectivity of acetylene partial hydrogenation. Different experimental techniques such as atomic absorption spectroscopy, surface area measurement and gas chromatography have been utilized to characterize chemical, structural and catalytic pro...

The Gas Liquid Cylindrical Cyclone (GLCC) separator is an attractive compact separator alternative to the conventional vessel-type two-phase flow separator. Thus, it is important to develop predictive tools for design and to be able to improve the technology of the GLCC. Previous studies on the GLCC have focused on mechanistic models capable of predicting the operational envelope for liquid car...

An experimental study has been carried out of the two phase counter-current gas-liquid flow in a packed bed column operated in the proximity of the flooding point under periodic variations of inlet velocity of gas or liquid. Additional experiments have been focused on evaluating axial dispersion characteristics in the proximity of the flooding line in both liquid and gas phase using inert trace...

Partial liquid ventilation using conventional ventilatory schemes improves lung function in animal models of respiratory failure. We examined the feasibility of high-frequency partial liquid ventilation in the preterm lamb with respiratory distress syndrome and evaluated its effect on pulmonary and systemic hemodynamics. Seventeen lambs were studied in three groups: high-frequency gas ventilati...

Carbon dioxide capture is a key issue in climate change mitigation. For decades the removal of carbon dioxide has been an essential step in many industrial processing operations such as the synthesis of ammonia, natural gas purification, and oil refining. In this study, a rotating packed bed has been designed for absorption of carbon dioxide from an air stream. The rotating packed bed is a comp...

The structure of the carbon dioxide-water interface was analyzed by X-ray diffraction and reflectivity at temperature and pressure conditions which allow the formation of gas hydrate. The water-gaseous CO2 and the water-liquid CO2 interface were examined. The two interfaces show a very different behavior with respect to the formation of gas hydrate. While the liquid-gas interface exhibits the f...

â understanding the flow behaviour in a gas well is crucial for future production strategies, obtaining bottomhole conditions from wellhead production data, analyzing production data and estimating reservoir properties. in this work, the pressure profile and flow regime are studied on four wells of a multi-well, multi-layer gas-condensate reservoir, producing at high rate. the wells are deviate...

Dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) followed by gas chromatography-massspectroscopy (GC-MS) was used to analyses of components of floral-water of Rosmarinusofficinalis . Some effective parameters such as volume of extraction, disperser solvents andsalt effect were studied by a full factorial design for obtain the optimum condition. The maincompounds of the floral-water of Rosmarinu...

This work is a primary achievement in studying the CO2 and N2–oil systems. To predict gas-liquid relative permeability curves, a Shan-Chen type multicomponent multiphase lattice Boltzmann model for two-phase flow through 2D porous media is developed. Periodic and bounce back boundary conditions are applied to the model with the Guo scheme for the external body force (i.e.,...
