Effective cuttings transport means a better hole cleaning in drilling operations, which can increase the rate of penetration (ROP), and avoids pipe sticking, higher drag and torque problems. This paper aimed to analyze cuttings transport efficiency affected by different blade shapes of stabilizers, which is often overlooked in drilling. For this purpose, Eulerian multiphase flow model was used ...

The production of beer is characterized by the consumption of large volumes of fresh water. Whereas, cleaning operations are the highest water consumption demanding activities in breweries. Commonly “Cleaning In Place” (CIP) systems are used in closed processing lines. These consist of automatic cleaning and disinfection programs based on a succession of several solutions of water, cleaning che...
