Enzymes for Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR)
(Doctoral thesis, 2011-06-30)Primary oil recovery by reservoir pressure depletion and secondary oil recovery by waterflooding usually result in poor displacement efficiency. As a consequence there is always some trapped oil remaining in oil reservoirs. ... -
«Er det nokon som har tolka dette annleis?» - Ein kvalitativ studie av samtalar mellom lærar og elevar under felles tilarbeiding av fagstoff
(Master thesis, 2021-06-15)Formålet med denne masteroppgåva har vore å få eit innsyn i kva som kjenneteikner samtalar mellom lærarar og elevar i klasserommet. Datamaterialet som utgjer grunnlaget for analysen er samla inn frå tre undervisningstimar ... -
Ethylene-Triggered Formation of Ruthenium Alkylidene from Decomposed Catalyst
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Ethylene is known to readily decompose ruthenium-based olefin metathesis catalysts, such as Grubbs second-generation catalyst (GII), by forming the unsubstituted ruthenacyclobutane (Ru-2) that may undergo a 1,2-H shift and ... -
Eukaryote-specific assembly factor DEAP2 mediates an early step of photosystem II assembly in Arabidopsis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The initial step of oxygenic photosynthesis is the thermodynamically challenging extraction of electrons from water and the release of molecular oxygen. This light-driven process, which is the basis for most life on Earth, ... -
Experimental Studies of N2 - and CO2-Foam Properties in Relation to Enhanced Oil Recovery Applications
(Doctoral thesis, 2015-06-01)Foams can do more than soften a beard or extinguish a fire. Foam also offers the oil industry better mobility control. The presence of a foaming agent in porous rocks can reduce the mobility of gas and water, stabilize the ... -
An experimental study of mixed CO2-CH4 hydrate phase equilibria and the CO2-CH4 exchange reaction
(Master thesis, 2015-06-01)Large amounts of CH4 are trapped in naturally occurring gas hydrate deposits. Extensive research on these species has generated a considerable interest in developing technologically and economically viable recovery methods ... -
Exploration of non-spinning ^1H NMR Spectroscopy as a Tool for Determination and Monitoring of Gas Hydrate Formation and Dissociation Processes
(Master thesis, 2015-11-02)Natural gas hydrates provide both a flow- assurance hazard and a potential fossil fuel source. In order to face the challenges presented by these scenarios, a greater understanding of the properties of hydrates in a range ... -
Exploratory multivariate analysis of the effect of fatty fish consumption and medicinal use on heart rate and heart rate variability data
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-02-17)The overall aim of the present study was to explore the relationship between medicinal use and fatty fish consumption on heart rate variability (HRV) and heart rate (HR) in a group of forensic inpatients on a variety of ... -
Exploring chemistry teachers' perspectives on questioning and providing a new way of analyzing teacher questions in science classrooms
(Doctoral thesis, 2018-02-12)The goals of this dissertation were, to examine how chemistry teachers conceptualize the nature of questions used in teaching, as well as how their understanding influences their questioning practice, and to explore a new ... -
Exploring FabF as a new target for antibiotic-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa: Assay development, fragment screening and hit optimization
(Doctoral thesis, 2024-12-16)Oppdagelsen av antibiotika er utvilsomt blant de største triumfene innen moderne medisin, og har i stor grad forbedret sykdomsforløpet ved de fleste vanlige bakterieinfeksjoner. I dag har triumffanfarene blitt modulert til ... -
Exploring gas adsorption properties and phase transitions of two M(tppo) metal-organic frameworks
(Master thesis, 2024-06-03)Separation and storage of gases is of interest to the global society in order to minimize emission of greenhouse gases and utilize these gases as resources in their pure form in the chemical industry. This work considers ... -
Exploring hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) of digested sewage sludge (DSS) at 5.3 L and 0.025 L bench scale using experimental design
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)A common perspective within the prospect of a greener future is utilising our waste materials. One waste material of which the world has abundant resources, and where we will keep having resources, is sewage sludge. This ... -
Exploring the Potential of Biomass Resources Available in Western Norway
(Doctoral thesis, 2024-10-21)Fornybare energikilder som vind, sol, vannkraft og geotermisk energi kan bidra til å erstatte fossile ressurser for å dekke et energibehov, men de kan ikke erstatte vanlig brukte fossilbaserte kjemiske produkter og ... -
Exposure of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) and Crude Oil to Atlantic Haddock (Melanogrammus aeglefinus): A Unique Snapshot of the Mercapturic Acid Pathway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Fish exposed to xenobiotics like petroleum-derived polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) will immediately initiate detoxification systems through effective biotransformation reactions. Yet, there is a discrepancy between ... -
Extracellular vesicles for breast cancer diagnosis and therapy
