Mud Acid Effect on Fines Migration Problem Using a Newly Developed Al/Zr-Based Clay Stabilizer (A): Mitigation Can Happen
Abstract: Sandstone reservoirs exhibit severe fines migration problems subsequent to conventional mud acid (HCl: HF) treatments. The acid treatment proved to be effective for a relatively short period of time, with a sudden production decline owing to either that mud acid spent rapidly in close proximity to the wellbore, causing clays to migrate into the acidized area and re-plug the formation; or that the mud acid system actually weakens the structure …

Evidence of PDMS-based foam control agent mechanism on crude oil foams
Abstract: Crude oil foam is a frequent problem faced in oil production operations that can cause the reduction of the separator efficiency, separator overflow, carry out of liquid by the gas stream, and other serious problems. Among the techniques used to attenuate foams in crude production, the injection of chemical additives is still considered one of the most efficient. However, the effectiveness of a foam control agent (FCA) is limited to …

Seismic Analysis of Symmetrical and Unsymmetrical Multistory Building with Shear Wall and Hybrid Shear Wall
Abstract: Shear walls are structural systems which provide stability to structures from lateral loads like wind, seismic load. Shear walls are added to the building interior to provide more strength and stiffness to the building when the exterior walls cannot provide enough strength and stiffness. It is necessary to provide these shear walls when the tolerable span width ratio for the floor or roof diaphragm is exceeded. Shear walls are mainly …

Defluoridation of Water using Corn Cobs Powder: An Effective Risk Reducing Agent
Abstract: The presence of a unique chemical called fluoride in water, has a major impact on human health. In many places, ground waters are the primary source of water and is found to be with high concentrations of fluorides. Most of the adsorbents used for the removal of fluoride from drinking water are activated carbon-based materials and is found to be most expensive. There is a need for an alternative, effective, …

Minimal Invasive Approach in Periodontal Therapy: A Review
Abstract: Minimally invasive periodontal treatment procedures are mostly confined within the context of periodontal surgery and aim to perform less extensive surgical manipulation, leading to reduced level of pain and discomfort. It also prevents the delirious esthetic changes that could occur with the conventional surgical approaches. This review deals with the ground understanding of minimally invasive periodontal therapy inculcating the regenerative potential at the confined site, when performed. Many studies reveal …

Comparative Study of Rocuronium Bromide and Succinylcholine Regarding Ease of Intubating Conditions and Hemodynamic Parameters for Rapid Sequence Intubation in Adults
Abstract: Background: Rapid Sequence Intubation (RSI) is an airway management procedure designed to quickly secure the airway while reducing the likelihood of gastric aspiration during anesthesia induction. For many years, Succinylcholine has been regarded as the preferred neuromuscular blocking agent for RSI because it produces muscle relaxation rapidly and has a relatively brief duration of action. However, its adverse effect profile – including hyperkalemia, bradyarrhythmias, malignant hyperthermia, and increased intracranial and …
