Production of Renewable fuel from a high invasive risk native plant
Abstract: Petroleum has been the transportation fuel of choice for more than a century now, but it’s not the only fuel that can run our cars and trucks. Some of the most promising replacements for oil come from organic biomass, including crops such as corn, switch grass, eucalyptus, soybeans and algae, wood, the main sources for the renewable fuels in use today. Bioethanol and Biodiesel are the most widely used renewable …

Numerical Investigation of the Osmatic Flow Impact on the Load Recovery and Early Well Performance
Abstract: The complexity of shale system coupled with the mystery of low fracturing fluid recovery has puzzled many researchers. Field reports from hydraulic fracturing operations performed on shale formation have highlighted the low recovery of the fracturing fluid. The fate of the hydraulic fracturing fluid is still controversial issue. However, literature has attributed the low load recovery to either trapping into the natural or created micro-fracture or imbibition to the matrix. …

Solutions to Problems Faced in Well Log Analysis in fractured metamorphic Reservoir Systems Due To Multiple Porosities and Lithology’s
Abstract: Metamorphic rocks are the most bottomless non-terrigenous sedimentary rock and are made essentially out of transformative minerals. Most metamorphic rocks shape from calcareous stores that collect in marine conditions running from salt marshes to reefs to profound sea bowls. Unmistakable and one of a kind parts of transformative rocks are their dominatingly intrabasinal starting point, their essential reliance on natural exercises for their constituents and their powerlessness to change by …

Emerging Trends in Applications of Antimonide Semiconductor Alloys in Wireless Communications
Abstract: We investigate inter diffusion in Antimonide alloy hetero structures by means of bright-field transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Samples grown by metal organic molecular beam epitaxy (MOMBE) are subjected to thermal treatment under both In-rich and Sb-rich conditions. Concentration profiles of the group-III elements are determined by evaluating changes of thickness fringes of cleaved 90° wedge specimens on a nanometer scale. We present first results of our inter diffusion experiments and …
