Carbon dioxide capture, storage and production of biofuel and biomaterials by bacteria: A review

Edgard Gnansounou, Manish Kumar

Due to industrialization and urbanization, as humans continue to rely on fossil fuels, carbon dioxide (CO2) will inevitably be generated and result in an increase of Global Warming Gases (GWGs). However, their prospect is misted up because of the environme ...

Accounting for near-wellbore fracture behavior to unlock the potential of unconventional gas wells

Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion

Despite ongoing engineering efforts, unconventional horizontal gas wells completed with the multi-stage hydraulic fracturing technique are not yet producing to their full potential, as a meaningful proportion of clusters are producing marginally - if at al ...

Quantification of Viscous Creep Influence on Storage Capacity of Caprock

Lyesse Laloui, Roman Makhnenko, Ludovic Räss

In the light of growing concerns for the climate change, it is of particular interest for governments to encourage efficient capture and safe storage of large amounts of carbon dioxide in the subsurface. In this perspective and in order to accurately predi ...

Fluid–structure interaction in pipe coils during hydraulic transients

Anton Schleiss, Pedro Filipe De Almeida Manso, David Ferràs Segura

The paper presents the analysis of fluid–structure interaction occurring during hydraulic transients in pipe coils by means of a four-equation model. The purpose is to understand and describe the effect of the coil movement on the transient wave. The four- ...

Deformation behavior of nanoporous polycrystalline silver layers sintered by low temperature bonding: experiment and simulation

Saba Zabihzadeh

Integrated circuit packaging technology has become a prime design consideration for the develop-ment of electronic system concepts. One key issue is the bonding layer between chip and substrate. Currently, high-lead solder materials are being used, which a ...

Heavy hydrocarbon mixtures as fuels for SIEMENS DLE gas turbines

Associated gases at oil wells are often rich in heavy hydrocarbons (HHC, here denoting hydrocarbons heavier than methane). HHC may cause handling and combustion difficulties as their properties are different from standard natural gas, therefore HHC rich as ...
