Understanding the transport of liquid hydrocarbon through nanopores of inorganic minerals
is crucial not only to develop liquid-rich shale reservoirs, but also to grasp oil migration from …

Oil production from shale has grown dramatically in North America, and has the potential to
do so globally. Understanding the adsorption and transport of liquid hydrocarbon through …

Multiple mechanisms of oil transport in inorganic and organic nanopores of shale oil
reservoirs are still unclear and possibly more complex than those of gas transport in …

The strong interactions between kerogen and CO 2 give an opportunity to enhance shale oil
recovery (EOR) by CO 2 injection, and also reduce greenhouse gas emissions through CO 2 …

In this perspective, we review how Raman spectroscopy of bulk aqueous phases can assist
in the interpretation of surface‐selective vibrational spectra obtained from visible‐infrared …

As an unconventional energy source, the development of shale oil plays a positive role in
global energy, while shale oil is widespread in organic nanopores. Kerogen is the main …

The adsorption behavior of a model additive, hexadecylamine, onto an iron surface from
hexadecane oil has been characterized using polarized neutron reflectometry, sum …

Understanding the adsorption state and molecular behavior of the diverse components of
shale oil in shale slits is of critical importance for exploring novel enhanced shale oil …

Understanding the mechanism of water adsorption on silica is important in many fields of
science and technology, such as geo-and atmospheric chemistry. Vibrational IR–visible sum …

Attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and sum frequency
