Inorganic scale deposits are a major water-related problem encountered in producing oil
and gas wells. The harshness of scale deposits is dependent on the field operating …

Mining regions in different parts of the world have been associated with the significant
pollution of water, sediments, and soils by manganese and other chemical elements. This …

Scale precipitation is one of the major problems in the petroleum industry during
waterflooding. The possibility of salt formation and precipitation should be monitored and …

Over the past few years, nanomaterials have been gradually developed as scale inhibitors.
In this work, an environmentally friendly and antibacterial sulfur quantum dot scale inhibitor …

A water-soluble carboxymethylchitosan (CMC) was prepared in water/isopropanol (2/8)
medium, at 10° C, and characterized by UV–vis, FT-IR and NMR techniques. Its performance …

In this work, the process of low salinity water injection (LSWI) into reservoirs at various salt
concentrations was simulated in order to study the change in the oil recovery factor during …

In this work, barium sulfate precipitation was analyzed under ambient and reservoir
conditions. The worst scenario for barium sulfate precipitation occurred at a mixing ratio of …

Scheelite, a strategic calcium-bearing mineral, usually coexists with calcite. Froth flotation is
the most commonly used method of separating scheelite from calcite, but it is difficult to …

Scale deposition, a form of formation damage, not only affects the reservoir but also
damages the well and equipment. This phenomenon occurs due to changes in temperature …

Reverse osmosis (RO) is poised to be the primary membrane-based water desalination
technology as the need for potable water increases. Current and prior research focuses on …
