The injection of liquid cool CO2 in a warm depleted gas reservoir

The P18-4 compartment (operated by TAQA Energy B.V.) would be injected by CO2 at a minimum temperature of 12 degrees C. At these temperatures, the CO2 phase will either be a gas or a liquid. As the initial temperature of the reservoir is 120 oC, the CO2 will eventually be the gaseous or (at higher pressures), the supercritical phase. An...

Towards cognitive image fusion

The increasing availability and deployment of imaging sensors operating in multiple spectral bands has led to a large research effort in image fusion, resulting in a plethora of pixel-level image fusion algorithms. However, the cognitive aspects of multisensor image fusion have not received much attention in the development of these methods. In...

Short-cut calculations for integrated product recovery options in fermentative production of bio-bulk chemicals

Microorganisms are generally sensitive to high concentrations of products that they excrete. Such product inhibition and toxicity effects can significantly be reduced by the integration of fermentations with separation technologies to remove the products continuously. Cost-calculations are required to select the preferred integration method....
