a fundamental study of scale formation of calcium carbonate (caco3) for producing oil wells hasbeen carried out. this article presents the study of the prediction of salt deposition in two differentsynthetic formation waters and investigates the effects of temperature and pressure on calciumcarbonate precipitation. the dependence of the induction period of the precipitation of calciumcarbonate ...

the oil refining industries are using a number of demulsifiers for dewatering and desalination of crude oil but experience has shown that universal demulsifiers can not be produced. each kind of water in oil (w/o) emulsion requires specific by composition demulsifier. in practice, synergetic effect of the interaction between different types of demulsifiers is often sought. for dewatering the w...

Exploiting new, low-cost and efficient electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is important to resolve the energy crisis and environment pollution. In this work, graphene decorated with Ni nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized via one-pot reduction using graphene oxide (GO, the obtained composite was denoted as GN) as a precursor. The as-prepared composite GN exhibits much better ...

Aim: The combination of different antimicrobial agents and subsequent synergetic effects may be beneficial in treatment of P. aeruginosa infections. The aim of the present study was to determine antibiotic susceptibility patterns of clinical isolates of P. aeruginosa and the effect of different antibiotic combinations against the multidrug-resistant (MDR), biofilm-producing bacterium P. aerugin...

Time variability of reservoir parameters in water flooding has an effect on oilfield development rules. Meanwhile, time variability of different reservoir macro-parameters has certain synergetic relationship with each other. Based on microscopic network simulation and reservoir numerical simulation, a new simulation method is presented, which can describe the influence of reservoir parameters' ...

Chemicals and Materials All chemicals used in the experiments (KBr, Fe2(SO4)3, H2SO4, ethanol, Rhodamine B) are analytical grade or better provided by Sinopharm Co., China. All aqueous solutions are prepared with deionized water (18.2 MΩ, Milli-Q, Millipore Corp., France). ITO glass slides were washed in an ultrasonic cleaner by isopropanol and deionized water for several times and dried by blo...

In this paper, an almost new control approach called terminal synergetic control which works based on user defined manifold is applied to a nonlinear helicopter model. Stability analysis is convestigated using Lyapunov stability theory. Synergetic controller is applied to this nonlinear fifth-order helicopter model to control height and angle. Simulation results showed that it has faster and sm...

Biodiesel, produced by the transesterification of vegetable oils or animal fats with methanol, is a promising alternative diesel fuel. In this study, a series of strong base anion resins with different basicity, pore structure, degree of cross-linking, and particle size were investigated as heterogeneous catalysts for the transesterification of soybean oil with methanol. A trace amount of CH3ON...

The value of synergy degree represents the operating condition of Industry-University-Research Institute (IUR) synergetic innovation (SI) composite system, we build up a set of synergy degree evaluation index system and an evaluation model for IURSI based on the principle of order parameter and slaving of synergetics, which divides the synergy process of IURSI complex system into six subsystems...

Recent data showing that glucan stimulates defense reactions in plants through synthesis of resveratrol, led us to study the possible synergetic effects of a glucan-resveratrol complex on immune reactions in mice. We measured phagocytic activity, expression of CD4 marker on spleen cells, IL-2 secretion and antibody response. In all cases we confirmed the stimulatory effects of glucan. Resveratr...
