Hydrocarbons in subsurface nanoporous media, such as shale, are promising energy
resources to compensate for the shortage of conventional reservoirs. Pore-network …

In oil field development, phase behavior would influence fluid components and mobility, thus
affecting production. As a fine-grained sedimentary rock, shale brings difficulties to …

Capillary condensation of water is ubiquitous in nature and technology. It routinely occurs in
granular and porous media, can strongly alter such properties as adhesion, lubrication …

Water vapor sorption in nanoporous media with complex pore structures, like shale, is not
well understood. To address this, a pseudopotential lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) is …

Abstract Development of shale gas exploration and recovery processes have become the
research focus of the scientific and industrial communities due to the acute depletion of …

Photocatalysis is a multifaceted phenomenon that can be employed for diverse applications,
such as waste management and the treatment of water resources. Through a hydrothermal …

There has been increased interest of chitosan as a dye adsorbent. Nonetheless, the
chitosan tends to form bonding between their monomer chains that result in a rigid structure …

Solar-driven interfacial evaporation (SIE) has emerged as a promising technology owing to
its enhanced heat and mass transfer characteristics when compared to conventional …

Nanoconfined fluids (NCFs), which are confined in nanospaces, exhibit distinctive
nanoscale effects, including surface effects, small-size effects, quantum effects, and others …

Develo** highly efficient catalysts for chemoselective oxidation of methane to methanol
under mild conditions is a grand challenge. We report the successful design and synthesis …
