Environmentally Friendly Synthesis of Biobased Plastic from Lignin Derived Building Blocks to Replace Poly(ethylene Terephthalate) (PET)
(Master thesis, 2017-12-20)The resources of petroleum are decreasing, and new ways have to be found of producing all the energy and chemicals that today are based on petroleum. An alternative to petroleum is renewable biomass, where lignocellulosic ... -
Establishing a homogeneous and stable sand pack to study parameters during spontaneous imbibition
(Master thesis, 2018-06-20)Spontaneous imbibition is an important process for oil production during water flooding in porous media and has been widely studied for decades to understand the physics of the process for different boundary conditions. ... -
Low Salinity Waterflood in Combination with Surfactant/Polymer: Effect of Brine Composition
(Master thesis, 2014-06-02)The effect of low salinity water (LSW) on enhanced oil recovery has been known for decades. Although much research is done on the topic, a general agreement of the prevailing mechanism for the low salinity effect has still ... -
Simulation Studies of Hybrid EOR
(Master thesis, 2019-06-22)Injection of low salinity brine in combination with surfactant and polymer for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) have been proven to substantially increase oil recovery. Large EOR potential exists on the biggest fields on the ... -
Simulation Study of In-Situ Polymer Rheology in a Radial Flow Experiment
(Master thesis, 2018-06-27)The global energy demand is continuously growing, and even though renewable energy sources are becoming increasingly important, oil remains the leading energy fuel to this date, accounting for one third of the consumption. ... -
Spontaneous Imbibition in Sand - Viscosity Effects on Oil Recovery and Flow Using Polymer and Glycerol
(Master thesis, 2016-06-01)Spontaneous imbibition experiments have historically been performed using all faces open (AFO) boundary condition. Due to complex flow patterns consisting of both counter- and co-current flow, modelling flow using established ...
