AREAL SURFACE CHARACTERIZATION OF ACID-FRACTURES IN CARBONATE ROCKS

Characterization of Bitumen Bearing Carbonate Rocks

Several countries, including Canada, contain sizeable bitumen resources in highly fractured carbonate rocks. Any possible recovery of bitumen from these reservoirs will be highly dependent on proper understanding of the rock and fluid properties and how they vary in the reservoir. These carbonates are extremely heterogeneous, and as a result proper reservoir characterization is challenging. In ...

Geochemical Characterization of Sulfide Mineralization in Eastern Wisconsin Carbonate Rocks

Characterization and surface properties of amino-acid-modified carbonate-containing hydroxyapatite particles.

The surface properties (nature, strength, and stability of interaction of functional groups) and bulk morphologies of a series of amino-acid-functionalized carbonate-containing hydroxyapatite (CHA) particles were investigated. It was found that the amino acids were both occluded in and presented on the surface of the CHA particles. Furthermore, their presence enhanced particle colloidal stabili...
