Alkaline surfactant polymer flooding shown to improve recovery in very mature oilfield by more than 300%

Green Car Congress

In a report on Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) production research published in 2000, the DOE described ASP: The alkaline-surfactant-polymer (ASP) process evolved from the early studies on micellarpolymer flooding. Polymer is added to protect the chemical slug from early dissipation by the driving water phase. water production.

The New Supersonic Boom

Cars That Think

The most extensive such experiment took place over Oklahoma City in 1964. The 1964 Oklahoma City tests involved more than 1,000 flights, which sparked more than 15,000 complaints, as documented in a 1971 report prepared by the National Bureau of Standards. Boom has stated that its plane will go supersonic only over water.

New Research Tools for Assessing Impacts of Aerosols on Climate

Green Car Congress

The researchers compared the visibility data to available satellite data (2000-2007), and found it to be comparable as an indicator of aerosol concentration in the air. Unlike aerosol particles, carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases are clear and have no effect on visibility. NASA technique.
