Abstract
The dyeing industry effluent causes severe environmental pollution and threatens the native flora and fauna. The current study aimed to analyze the physicochemical parameters of dyeing industry wastewater collected in different sites (K1, E2, S3, T4, and V5), as well as the metal tolerance and decolourisation ability of Aspergillus flavus. Furthermore, the optimal biomass quantity and temperatures required for efficient bioremediation were investigated. Approximately five dyeing industry wastewater samples (K1, E2, S3, T4, and V5) were collected from various sampling stations, and the majority of the physical and chemical characteristics were discovered to be above the permissible limits. A. flavus demonstrated outstanding metal resistance to As, Cu, Cr, Zn, Hg, Pb, Ni, and Cd on Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA) plates at concentrations of up to 500 g mL-1. At 4 g L-1 concentrations, A. flavus biomass decolorized up to 11.2-46.5%. Furthermore, 35°C was found to be the optimal temperature for efficient decolourisation of A. flavus biomass. The toxicity of 35°C-treated wastewater on V. mungo and prawn larvae was significantly reduced. These findings indicate that the biomass of A. flavus can be used to decolorize dyeing industry wastewater.

Abstract
Among the Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) methods, gas-based EOR methods are very popular all over the world. The gas injection has a high ability to increase microscopic sweep efficiency and can increase production efficiency well. However, it should be noted that in addition to all the advantages of these methods, they have disadvantages such as damage due to asphaltene deposition, unfavorable mobility ratio, and reduced efficiency of macroscopic displacement. In this paper, the gas injection process and its challenges were investigated. Then the overcoming methods of these challenges were investigated. To inhibit asphaltene deposition during gas injection, the use of nanoparticles was proposed, which were examined in two categories: liquid-soluble and gas-soluble, and the limitations of each were examined. Various methods were used to overcome the problem of unfavorable mobility ratio and their advantages and disadvantages were discussed. Gas-phase modification has the potential to reduce the challenges and limitations of direct gas injection and significantly increase recovery efficiency. In the first part, the introduction of gas injection and the enhanced oil recovery mechanisms during gas injection were mentioned. In the next part, the challenges of gas injection, which included unfavorable mobility ratio and asphaltene deposition, were investigated. In the third step, gas-phase mobility control methods investigate, emphasizing thickeners, thickening mechanisms, and field applications of mobility control methods. In the last part, to investigate the effect of nanoparticles on asphaltene deposition and reducing the minimum miscible pressure in two main subsets: 1- use of nanoparticles indirectly to prevent asphaltene deposition and reduce surface tension and 2- use of nanoparticles as a direct asphaltene inhibitor and Reduce MMP of the gas phase in crude oil was investigated.

Abstract
The chemical cleaning method is the simplest approach for degreasing oil-based drilling cuttings (ODCs), with the effectiveness of the treatment relying mainly on the selection of the surfactant and the cleaning conditions. However, achieving the standard treatment of ODCs directly using conventional surfactants proves challenging. In light of this, this study introduces a synthesized and purified Gemini surfactant named DCY-1. The structure of DCY-1 was confirmed through Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analyses. The characterization in this article encompasses the use of an interface tension meter, nanoparticle size analysis, scanning electron microscopy, and infrared oil measurement. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) of DCY-1 was determined to be 3.37 × 10-3 mol/L, with a corresponding γcmc value of 37.97 mN/m. In comparison to conventional surfactants, DCY-1 exhibited a larger micelle size of 4.52 nm, approximately 24.52% larger than that of SDS. Moreover, the residual oil rate of 3.96% achieved by DCY-1 was the lowest among the chemical cleaning experimental results. Through a single-factor experiment, the optimal cleaning ability of DCY-1 for ODCs was determined as follows: a surfactant concentration of 3 mmol/L, a temperature of 60 °C, an ODC/liquid mass ratio of 1:4, a cleaning duration of 40 min, and a stirring speed of 1000 rad/min. Under these optimal conditions and after merely two cleaning procedures, the residual oil content of ODCs was reduced to 1.64%, accompanied by a smooth and loose surface structure.

Abstract
The effect of the Gemini surfactant headgroup on the oil-water interfacial tension has yet to be systematically revealed. In this work, anionic Gemini surfactants with different hydrophilic headgroups (carboxylic, sulfuric, and sulfonic) were designed and synthesized. The oil-water interfacial tension was tested. The essential parameters for evaluating the interface characteristics, including the oil-water interfacial layer thickness, the coordination number, and the diffusion coefficient, were calculated employing molecular dynamics simulation. The surface electrostatic potential explained the quantitative mechanism of the hydrophobicity and lipophilicity of three types of Gemini surfactants through quantum chemical calculations. The oil-water interfacial tension difference of the Gemini surfactants was revealed at the electronic level. This paper will provide theoretical guidance for designing Gemini surfactants with a high-efficiency performance to enhance oil recovery.

Abstract
In order to study the relationship between the HLB value of oil and emulsion stabilization, the optimal formation of emulsification system was determined, and then, the properties of emulsion, such as particle size, stability, interfacial tension and zeta potential, were tested by laser particle analyzer, stability analyzer, and interfacial tensiometer. Experimental results showed that the optimal ratio of emulsification was Tween 80 : Span 80 = 5 : 5. Meanwhile, when the HLB value of the emulsification system was close to that of oil, the emulsion exhibited the best stability. This phenomenon is due to the fact that when the HLB values are close, the surfactant molecules are arranged more closely on the oil-water interface, leading to smaller sized emulsion droplet, which is conducive to emulsion stability. This study provides new insights into the effective adjustment of emulsion stability.

Abstract
In chemical enhanced oil recovery (cEOR) techniques, surfactants are extensively used for enhancing oil recovery by reducing interfacial tension and/or modifying wettability. However, the effectiveness and economic feasibility of the cEOR process are compromised due to the adsorption of surfactants on rock surfaces. Therefore, surfactant adsorption must be reduced to make the cEOR process efficient and economical. Herein, the synergic application of low salinity water and a cationic gemini surfactant was investigated in a carbonate rock. Firstly, the interfacial tension (IFT) of the oil-brine interface with surfactant at various temperatures was measured. Subsequently, the rock wettability was determined under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions. Finally, the study examined the impact of low salinity water on the adsorption of the cationic gemini surfactant, both statically and dynamically. The results showed that the low salinity water condition does not cause a significant impact on the IFT reduction and wettability alteration as compared to the high salinity water conditions. However, the low salinity water condition reduced the surfactant's static adsorption on the carbonate core by four folds as compared to seawater. The core flood results showed a significantly lower amount of dynamic adsorption (0.11 mg/g-rock) using low salinity water conditions. Employing such a method aids industrialists and researchers in developing a cost-effective and efficient cEOR process.

Abstract
In recent years, the application of smart water and surfactant in order to improve oil recovery has attracted special attention in carbonate reservoirs. In this research, the effects of various salts in smart water and two surfactants of Cetyl Trimethyl Ammonium Bromide (CTAB) and Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate (SDS) on the wettability alteration of carbonate rock and IFT were studied. Besides, along with micromodel flooding, core flooding tests were conducted to assess the amount of oil recovery at reservoir conditions as an injection scheme was used. In this regard, the results illustrated that the presence of CTAB or SDS in seawater (SW) can act better in contact angle reduction compared to smart water. Also, a four times increase in the concentration of SO42- and removing Na+ from SW reduced the contact angle to 68° and 71°, respectively, being the best possible options to alter the carbonate surface wettability to more water-wet states. Moreover, in the second-order process in which the rock section was first placed in SW, and then was put in the smart solution (with or without surfactant), CTAB had a great effect on the wettability alteration. In the case of IFT reduction, although SW4Mg2+, compared to other ions, better decreased the IFT to 17.83 mN/m, SW + SDS and SW + CTAB further declined the IFT to 0.67 and 0.33 mN/m, respectively. Concerning different ions, divalent cations (Mg2+ and Ca2+) show better results in improving oil recovery factor. However, the combination of SW and surfactants has a more positive effect on boosting oil recovery, as compared to smart water flooding. It should be mentioned that the first-order injection is better than the second-order one since SW is flooded at first, and then, after the breakthrough, smart water is injected into the micromodel. In addition, the core flooding tests showed that SW + CTAB and SW + SDS in tertiary injection increased the oil recovery to about 59 and 57%, respectively, indicating that the presence of CTAB could be more effective than that of SDS.

Abstract
The high-temperature reservoir (105 °C) in the Liubei block of Jidong Oilfield, with severe longitudinal heterogeneity, has entered a high water-cut stage. After a preliminary profile control, the water management of the oilfield still faces serious water channeling problems. To strengthen water management, N2 foam flooding combined with gel plugging for enhanced oil recovery was studied. In this work, considering a high-temperature reservoir of 105 °C, a composite foam system and starch graft gel system with high temperature resistance were screened out, and displacement experiments in one-dimensional heterogeneous cores were carried out. Through the three-dimensional experimental model and numerical model of a 5-spot well pattern, physical experiments and numerical simulations were carried out respectively to study water control and oil increase. The experimental results showed that the foam composite system had good temperature resistance up to 140 °C and oil resistance up to 50% oil saturation and was helpful to adjust the heterogeneous profile in a high temperature of 105 °C. The starch graft gel system had good injection performance, with a solution viscosity of 18.15 mPa·s, and its gel strength could effectively seal the high-permeability layer, with a gel viscosity of 34950.92 mPa·s. The displacement test results showed that after a preliminary implementation of N2 foam flooding, N2 foam flooding combined with gel plugging could still improve oil recovery by 5.26%. Compared with preliminary N2 foam flooding, gel plugging could control the water channeling in the high-permeability zone near the production wells. The combination of foam and gel made N2 foam flooding and subsequent waterflooding divert to flow mainly along the low-permeability layer, which was conducive to enhance water management and improve oil recovery. This method can be used as an effective technology to manage similar heterogeneous reservoirs.

Abstract
Surfactant flooding is an enhanced oil recovery method that recovers residual and capillary trapped oil by improving pore-scale displacement efficiency. Low retention of injected chemicals is desired to ensure an economic and cost-effective recovery process. This paper examines the adsorption behavior of a novel gemini cationic surfactant on carbonate cores. The rock cores were characterized using an X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectroscope. In addition, the influence of critical parameters on the dynamic adsorption of the cationic gemini surfactant was studied by injecting the surfactant solution through carbonate cores in a core flooding apparatus until an equilibrium state was achieved. The concentration of surfactant was observed using high performance liquid chromatography. Experimental results showed that an increasing surfactant concentration causes higher retention of the surfactant. Moreover, increasing the flow rate to 0.2 mL/min results in lowering the surfactant retention percentage to 17%. At typical high salinity and high temperature conditions, the cationic gemini surfactant demonstrated low retention (0.42 mg/g-rock) on an Indiana limestone core. This study extends the frontier of knowledge in gemini surfactant applications for enhanced oil recovery.

Abstract
The use of surfactants in polymerization reactions is particularly important, mainly in emulsion polymerizations. Further, micelles from biocompatible surfactants find use in pharmaceutical dosage forms. This paper reviews recent developments in the synthesis of novel gemini and bicephalous surfactants, micelle formation, and their applications in polymer and nanoparticle synthesis, oil recovery, catalysis, corrosion, protein binding, and biomedical area, particularly in drug delivery.
