Mierez J, AlTammar MJ, Alruwaili KM, Alfaraj RT. Recent advances of ultrasound applications in the oil and gas industry. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2024; 103:106767. [PMID: 38266591 PMCID: PMC10818082 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2024.106767] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2023] [Revised: 12/23/2023] [Accepted: 01/10/2024] [Indexed: 01/26/2024]
Abstract
In the last two decades, ultrasound (US) technologies research has increasingly earned attention for applications in the oil and gas industry. Numerous laboratory and field research have proven ultrasonics as an efficient, sustainable and cost-effective technology for improving well productivity. This paper pursues the elaboration of a comprehensive review of the most recent research related to ultrasonic technologies for applications in the oil and gas industry. Statistical analysis of different functional categories and classification of the research publications were performed. Considering the research reviewed, there is a huge gap between numerical and field studies in comparison with the numerous laboratory studies, deeming it necessary to increase efforts on developing mathematical and numerical models and field-testing cases of the ultrasonic effect. A comprehensive review of the ultrasonic waves' mechanisms of action for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and emulsification/demulsification was conducted. Despite the lack of consensus regarding the mechanisms, cavitation and thermal effects on wellbore fluid and formation rock have been widely accepted as two of the most influencing mechanisms. A compilation of the state-of-the-art research of numerical, laboratory and field studies in the last two decades was assembled. Most authors agreed that ultrasonics is a highly efficient method for EOR and emulsion treatment if the optimal conditions are identified and achieved. The development of screening criteria for the application of ultrasonic waves was recommended, as this technique and the same parameters should not be utilized for all reservoir types. Treatment with ultrasound waves has shown improvement of oil recovery efficiency rates of over 90% and viscosity reduction values over 80%. The most efficient results were observed when in combination with another conventional EOR method, where ultrasound boosts recovery efficiency. Potential new applications related to rock mechanics and additional research topics were also recommended.

Abstract
Plastic and fluorine-containing oil and water resistant packaging materials have been gradually replaced by non-toxic and harmless bio-based materials because of their hazard to environment and human health. In this study, chitosan/carnauba wax emulsions (CS/CWs) were firstly prepared by one-step and used as oil and water resistant coating for cellulose-based food packaging paper. The impacts of emulsion components on stability of the emulsions and barrier performance of the coated paper were investigated. The results showed that the viscosity, particle size and polydispersity index of the emulsions were greatly dependent on the concentration of CS and CW, and the coated paper had the best comprehensive performance in water and oil resistance when the concentration of CS was 3 % and the amount of CW was 90 % of the total solid content (CS3/CW90). The particle size of CS3/CW90 was in the range of 0.5-0.7 μm, and the Cobb60 value, water contact angle and the kit ratings of paper coated with CS3/CW90 achieved 7.5 g/m2, 130.9° and 12/12, respectively, and the coated paper also exhibited excellent thermal stability and high antibacterial rate of 99.1 %, demonstrating its great potential for application in multi-functional food packaging.

Abstract
Starch nanoparticles (SNPs) are generally defined as starch grains smaller than 600-1000 nm produced from a series of physical, chemical, or biologically modified starches. Many studies have reported the preparation and modification of SNPs, which are mostly based on the traditional "top-down" strategy. The preparation process generally has problems with process complexity, long reaction periods, low yield, high energy consumption, poor repeatability, etc. A "bottom-up" strategy, such as an anti-solvent method, is proven to be suitable for the preparation of SNPs, and they are synthesized with small particle size, good repeatability, a low requirement on equipment, simple operation, and great development potential. The surface of raw starch contains a large amount of hydroxyl and has a high degree of hydrophilicity, while SNP is a potential emulsifier for food and non-food applications.

Abstract
Nanoparticles (NPs) have attracted great attention in the tertiary oil recovery process due to their unique properties. As an economical and efficient green synthesis method, biosynthesized nanoparticles have the advantages of low toxicity, fast preparation, and high yield. In this study, with the theme of biotechnology, for the first time, the bio-nanoparticles reduced by iron-reducing bacteria were compounded with the biosurfactant produced by Bacillus to form a stable bio-nano flooding system, revealing the oil flooding mechanism and enhanced oil recovery (EOR) potential of the bio-nano flooding system. The interfacial properties of the bio-nano-oil displacement system were studied by interfacial tension and wettability change experiments. The enhanced oil recovery potential of the bio-nano-oil displacement agent was measured by microscopic oil displacement experiments and core flooding experiments. The bio-nano-oil displacement system with different nanoparticle concentrations can form a stable dispersion system. The oil-water interfacial tension and contact angle decreased with the increase in concentration of the bio-nano flooding system, which also has a high salt tolerance. Microscopic oil displacement experiments proved the efficient oil displacement of the bio-nano-oil displacement system and revealed its main oil displacement mechanism. The effects of concentration and temperature on the recovery of the nano-biological flooding system were investigated by core displacement experiments. The results showed that the recovery rate increased from 4.53 to 15.26% with the increase of the concentration of the system. The optimum experimental temperature was 60 °C, and the maximum recovery rate was 15.63%.

NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 13:513. [PMID: 36770474 PMCID: PMC9919324 DOI: 10.3390/nano13030513] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2022] [Revised: 01/20/2023] [Accepted: 01/26/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
The magnetic polymer microsphere is a promising adsorbent due to its high adsorption efficiency and good regeneration ability from wastewater. Cassava starch magnetic porous microspheres (AAM-MSMPMs) were synthesized by graft copolymerization in inverse emulsion. Mechanically activated cassava starch (MS) was used to graft skeletons, vinyl monomers [acrylic acid (AA) and acrylamide (AM)] as copolymerized unsaturated monomers, methyl methacrylate (MMA) as the dispersing agent, and polyethylene glycol/methanol (PEG2000/MeOH) as the porogen. It was found that the AAM-MSMPM adsorbent is superparamagnetic, the saturation magnetization is 14.9 emu·g-1, and it can be rapidly and directionally separated from Cd(II) ions in aqueous solution. The FTIR indicated that the carboxyl and hydroxyl groups were grafted into MS. The AAM-MSMPM had good speroidization and a uniform size. After the porogen was added, the particle size of the AAM-MSMPM decreased from 19.00 to 7.00 nm, and the specific surface area increased from 7.00 to 35.00 m2·g-1. The pore volume increased from 0.03 to 0.13 cm3·g-1. The AAM-MSMPM exhibited a large specific surface area and provided more adsorption active sites for Cd(II) ions. The maximum adsorption capacity of the AAM-MSMPM for Cd(II) ions was 210.68 mg·g-1, i.e., 81.02% higher than that without porogen. Additionally, the Cd(II) ion adsorption process on the AAM-MSMPM can be described by Langmuir isothermal and pseudo-second-order kinetic models. A chemical reaction dominated the Cd(II) ion adsorption process on the AAM-MSMPM, and chemisorption was the rate-controlling step during the Cd(II) ion adsorption process. The AAM-MSMPM still had excellent stability after five consecutive reuses.

Effect of dual modification with citric acid combined with ultrasonication on hydrolysis kinetics, morphology and structure of corn starch dispersions. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 222:1688-1699.

Abstract
Corn starch dispersions (CSD) were hydrolyzed with citric acid and compared with CSD co-treated with citric acid combined with ultrasonication for 1 to 18 days, which are designated as single modification (CSD-SM) and dual modification (CSD-DM), respectively. The logistic functions monitor the dynamics of the hydrolysis advance (%) of the CSD-SM and CSD-DM as a function of time, where the zones most vulnerable to the single-treatment and/or co-treatment of the corn starch granules (CSG) are the amorphous or disordered regions. The characterization results of CSD-DM suggest that the structural changes caused by dual modification affected the morphology, sequence, and microstructure of the CSG. The heterogeneous changes caused by the dual modification changed the configuration of the CSG, generating a kind of destemming of the amorphous lamellae (depolymerization), an increase in the percentage of relative crystallinity of the CSD-DM and an active rearrangement of the intralamellar chains that promoted the relative amount of double helix for 18 days of double modification. The synergistic effect of the dual modification for CSD by the sequential combination of a chemical treatment followed by a physical one improved the hydrolyzed advance by 12 %, the relative crystallinity by 10 %, and the promotion of double helices by 25 % during 18 days of co-treatment.

Abstract
The ultrasound method is a low-cost, environmentally safe technology that may be utilized in the petroleum industry to boost oil recovery from the underground reservoir via enhanced oil recovery or well stimulation campaigns. The method uses a downhole instrument to propagate waves into the formation, enhancing oil recovery and/or removing formation damage around the wellbore that has caused oil flow constraints. Ultrasonic technology has piqued the interest of the petroleum industry, and as a result, research efforts are ongoing to fill up the gaps in its application. This paper discusses the most recent research on the investigation of ultrasound’s applicability in underground petroleum reservoirs for improved oil recovery and formation damage remediation. New study areas and scopes were identified, and future investigations were proposed.

Abstract
Nanostarch is unique in that it is highly soluble, thermally stable, non-toxic and inexpensive. Hence, it is utilized in numerous well-established applications, including drug delivery, cosmetics, textiles, foods, and enhanced oil recovery (EOR). These applications take advantage of the special functions that can be achieved through modifications to the structure and properties of native starch. The most common method for the preparation of nanostarch with a relatively higher crystallinity and stability is acid hydrolysis. Technically, the properties of nanostarch are highly dependent on several factors during the hydrolysis process, such as the acid, concentration of acid, reaction time, reaction temperature, and source of starch. The production of nanostarch with desired properties requires a detailed understanding on each of the factors as they are inevitably affected the physical and chemical properties of nanostarch. Hence, it is vital to incorporate optimization technique into the production process to achieve the full potential of nanostarch. Therefore, the current review comprehensively elaborates on the factors that affect acid hydrolysis as well as the optimization techniques used in the preparation of nanostarch.

Abstract
High amylose starch nanoparticles (HS-SNPs) were rapidly synthesised by high-speed circumferential force of homogenisation (3000 and 15,000 rpm) during nanoprecipitation. Morphology and dynamic light scattering analyses showed that HS-SNPs fabricated by stronger circumferential shearing were excellent stabilisers in smaller sizes (20-50 nm). Their aggregates were liable to separate in the aqueous phase with the nano effect under either homogenisation over 6 min or ultrasonication in 2 min. SNP-based nanoemulsion (<200 nm) of high-water fraction was achieved, though the high hydrophilicity of the SNPs were identified by the contact angle. For homogenisation (with 100-2000 nm emulsion size), only time prolongation led to a better dispersion of SNP aggregates. Ultrasonication with periodic cavitation could disintegrate SNP aggregates into micro-aggregates for a stable emulsion system in a short period. In contrast, long-term ultrasound caused simultaneous re-agglomeration and solubilisation of the SNPs, leading to weakened interface barriers and decreased storage stability.

Abstract
To minimize environmental impact and costs, natural surfactants are suggested as an ecologically sustainable replacement for synthetic surfactants. The aim of this work is to evaluate the efficiency of low-cost saponin-based natural surfactant (SBNS) from Vernonia amygdalina (VA) leaves for enhanced oil recovery (EOR). Furthermore, the study investigated the IFT behaviour of SBNS at oil-water interface and the emulsion behaviour and oil displacement efficiency of SBNS. The SBNS was obtained via ultrasonic extraction of dried VA leaves in a water bath, centrifuging the obtained liquid mixture and freeze drying to evaporate to dryness. Thereafter, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and high-performance liquid chromatography were used to characterize the extracted SBNS. Moreover, tensiometer (Easy-Dyne KRUSS) was used to study the interfacial tension (IFT) behaviour of the SBNS at oil-water interface. Also, the SBNS ability to form stable emulsion in the presence of crude oil was determined. Finally, oil displacement by SBNS solution was investigated under simulated reservoir conditions (3000 psi and 100 °C) with high-pressure high-temperature (Fars EOR) core flooding equipment. The performance of SBNS was compared to commercial non-ionic surfactant 4-octylphenol polyethoxylated (TX-100). Experimental result indicated that the SBNS reduced the IFT at oil-water interface. The natural surfactant lowered the IFT of the oil-water interface from 18.0 to 0.97 mN/m. Moreover, emulsions formed with SBNS showed good stability characterized by a decrease in the median drop diameter with an increase in SBNS concentration. Finally, oil displacement test shows that oil recovery of TX-100 and SBNS increased by 9% and 15% original-oil-in-place (OOIP), respectively. Hence, SBNS is recommended as an appropriate substitute for conventional surfactant due to its inexpensive raw material, lower toxicity, and higher efficiency.
