The fluid contained has the characteristics of heavy oil with a value of 24.6oAPI and a high pour point (HPPO) of 48oC originating from the Talang Akar Formation reservoir. This well was closed after two months of production, the calculation result of the Colloidal Instability Index (CII) of 1.022 indicates that this value indicates instability of asphaltene in crude oil and can cause asphaltene deposits to form. One of the methodologies in overcoming this asphaltene problem is using thermochemical stimulation. This well has undergone two chemical injections using thermo-A1 (xylene, C8H10 12.5%) + thermo-B1 (toluene, C7H8 2.5%). increased, namely thermo-A1 (xylene, C8H10 15%) + thermo-B1 (toluene, C7H8 5%) resulted that the well only lasted 9 days with a rate of 75 BOPD which decreased oil production by 16% per day until shut-in on 18 January 2018 indication of deposition of large quantities of oil in the production tubing. Based on data from the EMR (Electric Memory Recorder) at a depth of 400 m from the surface, the resulting oil temperature is below the pour point, which is 48oC. On July 22, 2018, thermal stimulation with thermochemical was carried out to overcome the problem of asphaltenes. This thermochemical stimulation can melt the asphaltene deposits that settle in the production tubing and can raise the temperature above the pouring point of the oil. The thermochemical stimulation has succeeded in making the well produce again with a Qoi of 325 BOPD and raising the wellhead temperature from 30oC/86oF to 50oC/122oF. The results of the economic analysis of this thermochemical stimulation activity indicated that this activity benefited USD 947,811.","PeriodicalId":14572,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Chemistry & Chemical Engineering-international English Edition","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74359529","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The intent of this endeavor was to estimate the adsorption capacity of the SAPFH towards Mo (VI) in wastewater. Hence the surface was altered using a surface activating group, cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB). The husk of the palm fruit, whose surface was modified, was subjected to evaluate the extent of extracting molybdenum that is present in aqueous solution. The maximal removal of molybdenum occurs at pH 2.0. The adsorbent dose necessary for the maximum adsorption of MoO42- was lesser for wastewater than for pure aqueous solutions. MoO42- took longer time to attain equilibrium at high concentrations. The stability results were suited with Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin-Raduskevich adsorption isotherms models. Dynamic investigation revealed that the uptake obeyed pseudo second order kinetic effigy. The adsorption of adsorbates did not change significantly with increase in temperature. Desorption of Mo (VI) showed that it is possible to retrieve Mo (VI) from the spent adsorbent. The influence of accompanying negative ions such as chloride, phosphate, sulphate and chromate on the Mo (VI) uptake was explored and the anions compete with Mo(VI) ions.","PeriodicalId":14572,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Chemistry & Chemical Engineering-international English Edition","volume":"68 1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89898876","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study tends to address this gap by presenting comprehensive drying kinetic, energy, and exergy analyses of a cabinet-tray hot-air drying for red chili pepper. Drying was conducted at varying levels of air temperature (40-70 oC), air velocity (0.5-2.0 m/s), and relative humidity (60-75%). The effect of drying conditions on drying time, drying coefficient, lag factor, drying efficiency, moisture ratio, effective moisture diffusivity, mass transfer coefficient, total energy consumption (TEC), specific energy consumption (SEC), energy utilization ratio (EUR), heat loss, energy efficiency, exergy loss, exergy efficiency, exergetic improvement potential (EIP), and exergy sustainability index (ESI)) was evaluated. Five different mass transfer models (Dincer-Dost, Bi-Di, Bi-S, Bi-G, and Bi-Re) were applied to determine the mass transfer parameters. A new drying mathematical model was developed for the prediction of drying kinetic, energy, and exergy parameters. Effective moisture diffusivity values of 1.58×10–8 - 5.10×10–8 m2/s and mass transfer coefficient values of 0.053×10–6 - 8.79×10–6 m/s over the drying conditions range were respectively obtained. The TEC, SEC, and EUR achieved over the range of drying conditions in the course of drying were in the range of 43.56-77.36 MJ, 49.0-87.02 MJ/kg, and 0.035-0.325, respectively. Heat loss and exergy loss varied from 0.16 to 2.39 MJ and from 0.026 to 0.622 kW, respectively.

To determine the impact of different operating conditions on the product yield distribution of the delayed coking process, several experiments were designed and conducted in a prefabricated pilot plant. The experiments were conducted on different Iranian vacuum residues at temperatures ranging from 420°C to 480°C and at atmospheric pressure. Reaction times were within the range of 5-120 minutes. A four lumps kinetic model has been developed based on the experimental results. The lumps—which included Volatile products, coke, feed, and an intermediate phase between coke and feed—were defined to precisely monitor the yield distribution of products throughout the reaction time. The feedstocks utilized were three different vacuum residues and their blends. The mixtures were produced by using different mixing ratios of the three vacuum residues. The Statistical analysis shows that this model has R-squared, RMSE, SSE, and MRE equal to 0.99, 0.022, 0.08, and 3.537%, respectively. This shows that the developed model is sufficiently accurate. The experimental and modeling results in this research reveal that by increasing the temperature, the yield of coke and gas is abated. However, the yield of the distillate is escalated. This investigation illustrates that the production of an intermediate reaction has the highest amount of activation energy in comparison with the other reactions. Also, the results indicate that the production reaction rate of coke has the highest amount in comparison with other reactions.","PeriodicalId":14572,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Chemistry & Chemical Engineering-international English Edition","volume":"74 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2021-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80476563","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To do this, first, Ch-NGQDs nanocomposites were synthesized including certain weight percentages. Then, wool fibers were modified by prepared nanocomposites. In order to characterize and confirm the synthesis of NGQDs and Ch-NGQDs nanocomposites, FT-IR, XRD, HR-TEM, UV-visible and photoluminescence spectrometry were applied. Subsequently, surface modification of wool fibers by Ch-NGQDs nanocomposites was studied using FESEM spectrometry, analysis of fastness properties, colorimetric parameters and Mueller-Hinton broth antibacterial test. Findings showed that surface modification of wool fibers by Ch-NGQDs nanocomposites led to partial improvement in their color fastness and colorimetric parameters.

The best operating condition for the wind turbine is at the wind speed of 12 m/s, the pitch angle of 5ο and the tip speed ratio of 3. Moreover, the effects of the wind speed and tip speed ratio on the exergy efficiency of the total system become considerable when the gas turbine works at the high-pressure ratios (more than 10) and the combustion chamber temperature below 1250οc.
