the characterizations of natural diatomite from birjand deposit (iran) were studied such as chemical compositions, specific surface area, total pore volume, pore size distribution and xrd. the diatomite that was treated only with sulfuric acid displayed a larger surface area, expanded total pore volume and increased pore size in comparison with both washed natural diatomite with deionized water...

Performance of symmetric-architecture metal-supported solid oxide fuel cells was improved significantly by optimizing the catalyst infiltration process and metal support structure. Optimization component structure processing parameters performed during tape-casting fabrication button cells. Mass transport oxygen in identified as a major limitation. To overcome this limitation, pore former loadi...

Pore pressureis defined as the pressure of the fluid inside the pore space of the formation, which is also known as the formation pressure. When the pore pressure is higher than hydrostatic pressure, it is referred to as overpressure. Knowledge of this pressure is essential for cost-effective drilling, safe well planning, and efficient reservoir modeling. The main objective of this study is to ...
