Investigating the effect of hybrid silica nanoparticles-copolymer on increasing oil recovery in a three dimensional porous media
, Article Scientia Iranica ; Volume 24, Issue 6 , 2017 , Pages 3466-3475 ; 10263098 (ISSN) ; Ramazani, A. S. A ; Hekmatzadeh, M ; Sharif University of Technology
Abstract
In this work, hybrid of silica nanoparticles (NPs) with sulfonated copolymer has been prepared in order to improve the copolymer properties for Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR). Some tests are done to find the effectiveness of injecting fluid on Recovery Factor (RF), such as Contact Angle (CA), interfacial tension (IFT), inherent viscosity, and eventually Micro-Model (MM) flooding. In CA test, wettability alteration from Oil-Wet (OW) to Water-Wet (WW) is reached by sedimentation and adsorption of NPs on the rock slice. In addition, IFT reduction is obtained by increasing the NaCl concentration. The viscosity change is investigated for the hybrid and copolymer under simulated high-temperature oil...
Palladium nanoparticle-decorated magnetic pomegranate peel-derived porous carbon nanocomposite as an excellent catalyst for suzuki–miyaura and sonogashira cross-coupling reactions

Abstract
Porous carbon (PC) material was prepared from the carbonization of pomegranate peel waste. Subsequently, magnetically separable Fe3O4@PC was synthesized from Fe3O4 nanoparticles decorated on PC by the co-precipitation method of iron ions. Finally, Fe3O4@PC was successfully decorated with palladium nanoparticles in a simple route by reducing H2PdCl4 in the presence of sodium dodecylsulfate, which was used as both surfactant and reducing agent. Additionally, the effect of temperature on the carbonization process was studied. The Pd/Fe3O4@PC nanocomposite was used as an efficient and heterogeneous catalyst for Suzuki–Miyaura and Sonogashira cross-coupling reactions in an environmentally...
