The hydrate-based solidified natural gas (SNG) technology is a promising approach for natural gas storage and transportation. One challenge of this technology is to enhance the hydrate formation kinetics and achieve mild storage conditions. This work…
Form-stable phase change materials (PCMs) have garnered tremendous attention in thermal energy storage (TES) owing to their remarkable latent heat. However, the integration of intelligent manufacturing, recycling, and optimized multifunction is…
The volatile fraction of natural products often consists of complex mixtures of isomeric and/or homologous components with similar structural and physical characteristics (e.g. mono- and sesquiterpenoids) that are not easy to separate simultaneously…
The main objective of this work is to evaluate the effect of the simultaneous use of a surfactant mixture and magnetic iron core-carbon shell nanoparticles on oil recovery via a microfluidic study based on the rock-on-a-chip technology. The…
The petroleum industry has focused on the modification of crude oil composites to decrease their adhesion onto materials and thus facilitate oil extraction, transportation, storage, and processing. However, these methods such as heating, dilution,…
