Implications of diesel emissions control failures to emission factors and road transport NOx evolution

Diesel NOx emissions have been at the forefront of research and regulation scrutiny as a result of failures of late vehicle technologies to deliver on-road emissions reductions. The current study aims at identifying the actual emissions levels of late light duty vehicle technologies, including Euro 5 and Euro 6 ones. Mean NOx emission factor...

Plant applications of online corrosion monitoring: CO2 capture amine plant case study

Over the past several years, there has been a significant effort to bring corrosion monitoring into the realm of online, real-time management with plant process control technology. As part of this new direction in corrosion monitoring, corrosion data (e.g. information on corrosion rate, measured Stern Geary constant (or B value), and parameters...

Feasibility of borehole radar measurements to monitor water/steam fronts in EOR applications

A technique capable of capturing the dynamic of the reservoir fluids in the proximity of production wells would provide enormous benefit to the reservoir management; in fact, monitoring can be used to develop a feedback loop between measurements and control technologies to optimize the production. This paper examines the feasibility of a...
