Novel fluorinated surfactants for enhanced oil recovery in carbonate reservoirs by Al-Amodi, Adel O.

“…Only surfactant‐A was used in adsorption, interfacial tension, and core flooding experiments, since surfactant‐B was not completely soluble in seawater and therefore was limited to deionized water. A decrease in oil/water interfacial tension (IFT) of almost one order of magnitude was observed when adding surfactant‐A. …”

Effect of using Cement Kiln Dust as a nano-material on the strength of cement mortars by Alnahhal, Wael

“…In addition to the control cement mortar mixture with 0% CKD, a total of 28 concrete mortar mixtures were prepared with four different replacement percentages of nano-CKD (5, 10, 15, and 20 %), and seven different milling times (1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, and 4 hours). The compressive strengths of all cement mortar mixtures were evaluated after curing periods of 7, 28, and 56 days. …”
