The world energy paradigm is changing from one based on petroleum to one based on a mixture of energy platforms. This change is precipitated by a finite petroleum supply, an expanding global demand, and political instability in areas with major petroleum reserves. The mixed energy platform will include an array of renewable energy sources. The agricultural and forestry sectors have the potentia...

petroleum hydrocarbons are important energy resources used by industry and in our daily life, whose production contributes highly to environmental pollution. to control such risk, bioremediation constitutes an environmentally friendly alternative technology that has been established and applied. it constitutes the primary mechanism for the elimination of hydrocarbons from contaminated sites by ...

objectives: this study was designed to investigate the potential phyllanthus niruri extracts in promotion of hair growth. materials and methods: here, we studied the hair growth promoting activity of petroleum ether extract of p. niruri following its topical administration. alopecia was induced in albino rats by subcutaneous administration of testosterone for 21 days. evaluation of hair loss in...

This overview of different applications of CBR in petroleum engineering is based on a survey and comparative evaluation of different successful applications of CBR. The number of papers and research groups is indicative of importance, need, and growth of CBR in different industries. Application-oriented research in the area of case based reasoning has moved mature research results into practica...

“Whereas there are large seepages of petroleum along the Arctic Coast of Alaska and conditions favorable to the occurrence of valuable petroleum fi elds on the Arctic Coast . . .” President Warren G. Harding used those words in 1923 to describe the apparent petroleum potential of a tract of land on the western North Slope of Alaska, when he issued a one-page executive order establishing the 23-...

Petroleum is the most common global fossil fuel. It a complex multi-component system mainly composed of various hydrocarbons such as alkanes, cycloalkanes, mono-, bi- and polyaromatic compounds, resins asphaltenes. In spite humanity’s need for petroleum, it negatively affects environment due to its toxicity. The ecological problem especially serious at petroleum mining sites or during transport...
