To quantitatively analyze the effects of coupling port water injection (PWI) and exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) on the spray water evolution, combustion and emissions for the stoichiometric natural gas engines, five cases were tested on the…
Water (H2O) and minerals involved organic-inorganic reactions are critical for hydrocarbon evolution in sedimentary basins and deep in the Earth. The mechanism and isotope fractionation for H2O-mineral-hydrocarbon interactions remain unclear. In this…
The formation and decomposition of hydro-peroxides are the key stages of combustion. These stages strongly depend on the several factors accelerating or slowing this process. The aim of this work is to estimate experimentally which oil components act…
During an in situ combustion (ISC) process, low-temperature oxidation (LTO) is of vital significance for the follow-up oxidation reactions and oil recovery. Herein, this work is intended to carry out in-depth investigations regarding LTO of heavy…
In this research, a newly proposed method combining Chemkin with CONVERGE was used to study the transient in-cylinder chemical reaction process in NG-diesel dual fuel engine. The selected mechanism was verified by comparing the results of CONVERGE…
Through silane coupling and free radical polymerization, using SiO2 as core and poly4-vinylpyridine (P4VP) as shell, polymer brush with core-shell structure (P4VP@SiO2) was designed and synthesized. The structure of P4VP@SiO2 was further…
During an in situ combustion (ISC) process, low-temperature oxidation (LTO) is of vital significance for the follow-up oxidation reactions and oil recovery. Herein, this work is intended to carry out in-depth investigations regarding LTO of heavy…
Petroleum coke and biomass/coal co-gasification is a promising approach for efficiently integrating the individual advantages of different gasification feedstocks with syngas production. Therefore, research on syngas production, reactivity…
This study aims to develop unconventional advanced oxidation processes for managing phenolic effluents generated from thermochemical oxidation using Direct Contact Thermal Treatment (DiCTT) for liquid water reuse. The DiCTT system uses a…
Autoxidation is a set of spontaneous oxygen-mediated radical reactions common to degradation processes of all hydrocarbon-based materials. In this work, EPR (electron paramagnetic resonance) spin-trapping technique was used to study radical species…
