Biomimetic approach to anti-fouling surfaces
Scale formation is recognized as one of the major problems affecting production in the oil and gas sector. There are many approaches to remove and prevent scaling with chemical inhibition, chemical scale removers and mechanical methods being the most prevalent ones. Recently the focus has shifted …

Phosphate use for Sequestration, Anti-Scaling, and Corrosion Control: Critical Review, Simultaneous Optimization of Polyphosphate Dosing, Sequestration Mechanisms, and Stabilization of Magnesium Silicate Scale
… by sequestration, 2) inhibit calcium carbonate scale formation via threshold inhibition, and 3) reduce corrosion of pipes by forming protective pipe scales. Orthophosphates can control lead, copper and iron corrosion through the formation of durable, low solubility scale, but are widely believed …

Modelling the impact of geochemical reactions on oil recovery and scale management in chemical Enhanced Oil Recovery (cEOR) flooding processes
… on oil recovery efficiency and inorganic scale management during chemical Enhanced Oil Recovery (cEOR) flooding processes. These reactions are studied for polymer, surfactant and Surfactant-Polymer (SP), Alkaline-Surfactant (AS) and Alkaline-Surfactant-Polymer (ASP) flooding processes. In …

A novel view on the early stage of crystallization
… –polyacrylic acid (pAA) as a model compound for scale inhibitors and peptides exhibiting calcium carbonate binding affinity as model compounds for crystal modifiers- shows that ACC I and ACC II are precipitated in parallel: pAA stabilizes ACC II particles against crystallization leading to their …
