The detection of chemical samples having close dielectric response is a big challenge as
the detection principle is driven by the variations in the dielectric parameters of the …

The quality of fuel greatly affects the lifetime and smooth functioning of every petroleum
engine. To pursue higher profit, kerosene is mixed with petrol and diesel by many dishonest …

In this paper, a plasmonic refractive index sensor is proposed based on a square ring-type
resonator with gratings, which is coupled with a straight metal-insulator-metal (MIM) …

Petroleum is a crucial energy resource that is massively consumed worldwide in the
transport, industrial, and agricultural sectors. The hydrocarbon processing industry has a …

Lubricating oils help an internal combustion engine function effectively by reducing friction
and wear on the engine's moving parts. They typically consist of petroleum-derived base oil …

Diesel is an essential energy source in the transportation and industrial sectors worldwide;
hence, the quality of this commodity is crucial. This study compares various fuel samples to …

Light cycle oil (LCO) is a low-quality and poorly marketable byproduct of a fluidized catalytic
cracker (FCC) in a typical petroleum refinery and contains valuable aromatic components …

This study assessed the inter-relation between physiochemical and optical characteristics of
aerosols measured at a desert-urban region affected by anthropogenic sources and desert …

This paper introduces a novel and cost-effective method for detecting adulterated diesel,
specifically targeting contamination with kerosene, by leveraging machine learning and the …
