Product Number: 51323-18921-SG

Author: Alexandra Peters

Publication Date: 2023

$20.00

Mining is the essential process of extracting materials from the earth. It dates back to prehistoric times when the earliest humans mined flint, copper and gold. These basic materials were then used for tools, weapons, currency. Today, there is a wide array of mined products from the extraction of valuable materials. Mining is a growing industry with many varied processes and system designs depending on the extraction requirements, processing techniques, and restoration of the land after a mind is closed.

Novel Application of Nitrate as H2S Control Strategy in Permian Basin Produced Water Storage Ponds

Product Number: 51323-18968-SG

Author: Wei Shi, Paul Evans, Gabrielle Scheffer, Casey Hubert

Publication Date: 2023

$20.00

Produced water recycling for hydraulic fracturing (fracking) operations has been an increasingly common practice to support oil and gas development in the Permian Basin. Aside from the economic benefits associated with reusing the water produced which is a byproduct of oil and gas operations, recycling reduces both the need for sourcing water (brackish or fresh) from the environment as well as the volume of produced water requiring disposal. Produced water ponds support successful recycling by providing temporary storage of recycled water and volume buffer for fracking. Raw produced water is usually treated in recycling facilities before being stored in the ponds.

Novel Evaluation Of The Failure Of Coatings In A Marine Environment

Product Number: 51322-18033-SG

Author: James A. Ellor

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

The author previously introduced a method to evaluate protective coatings using a novel segmented cell approach. (1) Briefly, the technique intended to monitor natural current exchange between isolated segments, coated or uncoated, to supplement visual rankings of coating performance. The goal was to predict failure earlier than might otherwise be visible or to distinguish between coatings that had a similar visual appearance at the end of the proscribed test period. The experimental design also allowed for the instrumented segments, which act as sensors, to be prepared and coated as intended for a real-world industrial exposure, i.e., the metallic surfaces could be abrasive blasted and painted unlike thin-film, foil-like sensors also explored for similar purposes.

Novel Fumed Silica Innovation Drives New High-Performance for Thermal Insulation Coatings

Product Number: 51323-18923-SG

Author: Maria Nargiello, Hrishikesh Bhide

Publication Date: 2023

$20.00

Super insulation granules (SIG) based on a fumed silica core can be formulated into coatings to achieve high thermal insulative efficiency performance. The basis of the super insulation functionality in coatings is derived from the specially engineered microporous structure, optimized density combined with high hydrophobicity which allows high filler loading levels, far above conventional fumed silica. The high thermal insulative efficiency comes from an innovative design leading to significant passivation of the three major pathways of heat transfer. Ultra-high loading of this mineral based filler with a minimized viscosity build-up allows the coating to achieve an outstanding thermal insulation value with spray quality application utility.

Novel Heat-Conducting “Metallic” Coatings Against Biofouling And Biocorrosion

Product Number: 51322-18178-SG

Author: Di Wang, Timothy D. Hall, Tingyue Gu

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Seawater biofouling is a major threat in heat exchanger operations. It decreases the heat transfer efficiency and service life of heat exchangers^1,2. The formation of deposits caused by biofouling on the heat exchanger metal surfaces increases surface roughness and decreases cross-sectional flow area, which leads to higher friction loss in fluid flow^3,4. Mitigation methods, including surface scrubbing, fluidizing bed heat exchangers, cleaning-in-place and dosing anti-fouling chemicals, are the main ways to tackle biofouling⁵. Conventional approaches to treat biofouled components by periodic electrochlorination or acid flushes are costly and environmentally hazardous. Huge costs are associated with heat exchanger biofouling losses, but there is still a lack of research to develop heat-conducting antifouling coatings to heat exchangers³.

Novel Silicone Hardener for Eco-friendly Heat Resistant Coatings

Product Number: 51323-18951-SG

Author: Francisco Cortes Baledon, Markus Hallack, Peter Carter, Bin Cao

Publication Date: 2023

$20.00

For many years coatings based on methyl/phenyl silicone resins have proven to be one of the most effective and reliable products within the high heat and protective coatings segments. Their inorganic characters along with the methyl/phenyl modification provide outstanding long term thermal stability, attractive corrosion protection, weather resistance and good mechanical properties. In general, silicone resins for high heat applications can be categorized into two sub-groups: i) oven curing and ii) ambient temperature curing systems.
In the case of typical oven cured silicone

Nucleation And Crystal Growth Of Calcium Carbonate In The Presence Of Zn

Product Number: 51322-17700-SG

Author: Peter G. Koutsoukos, Panagiota D. Natsi, Zahid Amjad

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Calcium carbonate precipitation in the presence of pollutants is a carrier of importance for their transport to the sediments and for their subsequent release depending on the local microenvironment conditions. Zinc is often present in industrial waters (heat exchangers and boilers) mainly for corrosion protection. Depending on the alkalinity and calcium concentration of waters used in water intensive processes, calcium carbonate fouling is common. Moreover, among other metals, is present in natural waters together with iron and copper, where the concentration of Zn(II) may reach at levels of several ppm.
