Nanoparticles have shown great potential in many sectors of the oil and gas industry, including enhanced oil recovery (EOR). They can be used to improve water flooding by altering the wettability of the porous medium, reducing the interfacial tension, blocking pores, or preventing asphaltene precipitation. Ensuring the stability of nanofluids injected into reservoirs is essential…
The growing increase in emissions of ultrafine particles or nanoparticles by industries and urban centers has become worrisome due to the potential adverse health effects when inhaled. Particles in this size range have greater ease of pulmonary penetration, being able to access the bloodstream and deposit in other regions of the body. Thus, the development…
The perpetual significance of the pharmaceutical industry in society necessitates ongoing research efforts to enhance the efficacy of its manufacturing processes. Given that drug product manufacturing typically involves powder processing, a thorough understanding of powder characterization is needed for optimal process performance. Powder rheology is commonly examined in pharmaceutical manufacturing to elucidate the relationship between…
A gas phase, probe molecule doser was fabricated and connected to a diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) reaction chamber to study the reactions and stability of two organosilanes with the surfaces of metallic aluminum and boehmite powders in situ. Two metallic aluminum powder surfaces were studied, including an as-received, native oxide layer surface,…
