Applications of nanotechnology in several fields of petroleum industry, eg, refinery, drilling and enhanced oil recovery (EOR), have attracted a lot of attention, recently. This research …
Enhanced oil recovery techniques are commonly used today in oil fields to boost oil production. The objective of the present study is to investigate the use of silica nanoparticles …
Recently, nanofluids' application in enhanced oil recovery (EOR) studies has been severely confined in low saline environments due to instability. In this study, a novel nanofluid was …
In this comprehensive review, we critically examine the application of nanofluids as coolants in PEMFCs, explicitly focusing on elucidating their thermal efficiency enhancement …
Nanoparticles are extensively used at lab scale to improve physicochemical characteristics like interfacial tension, wettability, rheological behavior in different hydrocarbon recovery …
Biopolymers have been employed in enhanced oil recovery (EOR) due to their high viscosity and significant effects on waterflooding performance. Sodium alginate (NaAlg) is an …
Although the potential of nanoparticles (NPs) to improve oil recovery is magnificent, the effect of NPs during alternating injection is still vague. The main objective of this study is to …
Abstract In this study, TiO 2/SiO 2/poly (acrylamide) nanocomposites (NCs) as a newly- developed-nano enhanced oil recovery (EOR) agent is proposed using a simple, green and …
In this paper, the performance of three imidazolium-based ionic liquids (ILs) including 1- hexyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([HMIM][Cl] or IL6), 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride …
