to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Geothermal resources supplement this …

Carbon fibers are materials of paramount importance for composites applied in fields such
as aerospace engineering, medicine, and renewable energy. Currently, most of the …

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is considered a key process to reach net-zero emission
by the 2050 aim of limiting global warming. Coal bed methane (CBM) is considered potential …

This study aims to analyze the aggregation state of A1 and A2 asphaltene subfractions and
their influence on the adsorption and reactivity of ceria-based nanoparticles. To this aim, a …

Background Heavy and super-heavy oils are characterized by a high content of resins and
asphaltenes, which complicate the transportation and refining of oil and lead to an increase …

This work aims to widen our knowledge about the pyrolysis, and catalytic pyrolysis of
asphaltenes at low and high pressure through experimental and simulation approaches …

Air injection is a promising method to enhance light crude oil recovery. To effectively utilize
this technology, understanding the oxidation behaviour and interactions of SARA …

Abstract This work applies Solid-State Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (SS-NMR) to
characterize structural and motional aspects of petcoke and its derived humic-like products …

This study investigates the changes in asphaltene chemical properties during oxygen
chemisorption (OC) to understand its thermal behavior at different pressures and …

The overall objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of morphologies (C, cubic; O,
orthorhombic; and S, spherical) of ceria in the catalytic activity for n-C7 asphaltene thermo …
