Activation of Petroleum Coke
Journal Title: Petroleum & Petrochemical Engineering Journal - Year 2019, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Activated carbon is among the best and most used materials for the adsorption and removal of pollutants. Petroleum coke may be activated by either a physical or chemical process, with a significant increase of its surface area. The activated coke may be effectively used as an adsorbing agent for the treatment of polluted water and natural gas.

CFD Simulation of a Crude Oil Transport Pipeline: Effect of Water
In the present study, a 3D two-phase CFD simulation has been performed to investigate crude oil-water core annular flow through a crude oil transport pipeline in a real scale with 100 mm diameter and 1000 m length. Resul...
Utilising MFrac Technique to Simulate Hydraulic Fracturing Process
The MFrac software is an application used for fracture design and treatment analysis. An MFrac simulation is done to simulate the hydraulic fracturing in real life application in the oil fields. The MFrac simulates and c...
Experimental Measurement and Investigation on the Feasibility of Improvement of Physical and Dielectric Properties of Barium Titanate
Recent research has examined the improvement of physical and dielectric properties of BaTiO3 ceramic material by the small addition of excess TiO2 or BaCO3. The prepared samples sintered at different temperatures and var...
Spatio-Temporal Variations of Heavy Metals in Edible Crabs Collected From the Lower Gangetic Delta Region
We studied the concentrations of heavy metals (Zn, Cu and Pb) in the edible crabs collected from four different stations in the lower Gangetic delta for a period of more than one decade. Same heavy metals were also monit...
Processing of Non-Edible Vegetable Oils in Biofuel Production Using Acidic Catalysts
In this study, Egyptian Jatropha and Castor oils were obtained and transformed into their corresponding biofuels by catalytic cracking using heterogeneous catalysts (Alumina and Montmorillonite-HCL) with different ratios...
