Optimization of Operational Parameters for Production of Bio-ethanol from Red Gram Straw
Abstract: AbstractBio-alcohol is a neat and cleaner source of energy, which could be obtained from locally available biomass. However, the complex structure of lignocellulose in biomass makes a primary protective barrier that prevents cell destruction. In order to break down this structure for the conversion of biomass to fuel ethanol, the cellulose and hemicellulosic materials must be broken down to corresponding monomers (sugars). It could be done easily with acid hydrolysis …

APPLICATION OF AGRO BASED RESUIDALS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF SURACTANT ON IOR USING MICROBES
Abstract: Utilization of surfactants for IOR is an accepted technique with high potential. However, technology application is frequently limited by cost. Biosurfactants (surface-active molecules produced by microorganisms) are commonly used in specialty markets such as food and textiles and have potential for IOR application. Currently, biosurfactants are not widely utilized in the petroleum industry due to high production costs associated with use of expensive substrates and inefficient product recovery methods. The …

Inhibitors for steel implements
Abstract: Oil and gas industries use corrosion inhibitors made of active inhibitor intermediate, carboxylic acid, demulsifier and surfactant in aromatic solvent, and alcohol. High pressure and high temperature oil well flow lines are made of steel pipes. These pipes are prone to corrosion from gaseous contamination, oil quality, flow rate, developed shear stress of turbulence, pump spar techniques, etc. Carbon dioxide to carbolic acid conversion at below 100oC temperature appears to …

Steel inhibitors of gas well steels
Abstract: Corrosion inhibitor is chemical compound or substance that, when added in small concentration to an environment, effectively decreases the corrosion rate. Multiphase oil and gas well flowlines at subsea has studied to corrode by contamination of CO2 gas at different temperature, partial pressure, velocity of flow and properties of scale formed at inner wall. Irrecoverable localized corrosions cause failure of structures those are beyond effects of corrosion inhibitors. Pollution of …
