Abstract The rates of evolution of gas from carbon black with variation of time, temperature, and pressure have been determined. Complete analyses have been made of five types of carbon black, which involve an organic combustion of the original sample, an organic combustion of the sample after the gases have been removed, a determination of the loss in weight represented by the gases removed, analyses of the gases removed, and finally a complete accounting, or balance, of the carbon in the steps considered. In an attempt to supply some missing information not revealed by the foregoing, some special gas analyses under varying conditions were made. The relationship between the amount and composition of volatile matter evolved from carbon blacks and the properties imparted to vulcanized rubber when compounded with these blacks has been studied.

Introduction. In this article, the problem of temperature distribution in an oil-bearing formation with a hydraulic fracture and a vertical injection well is numerically modeled. Materials and Methods. To describe the process of temperature distribution in the formation under the action of the fluid injected into the formation, the Fourier-Kirchhoff equation of convective heat transfer is used. To solve this equation, the discontinuous Galerkin method on staggered unstructured grids is used. To describe the process of pressure change in the formation under the action of the injection well, an equation is used that is obtained based on the continuity equation and Darcy’s law. To solve it, the discontinuous Galerkin method on an unstructured triangular grid is used. To parallelize the numerical algorithm, the MPI library is used. Results. The article presents a numerical algorithm and the results of modeling the dynamics of the temperature fields in an oil reservoir with a hydraulic fracture and a vertical injection well. Discussion and Conclusion. A numerical algorithm based on the discontinuous Galerkin method for math modeling of the temperature and pressure fields in a oil-bearing formation with a hydraulic fracture and injection well was developed and implemented. The results obtained for the distribution of temperature and pressure in the fracture are adequate and in good agreement with the specified initial-boundary conditions. Further work in this direction involves modeling on tetrahedral unstructured meshes for a more accurate study of the ongoing processes.

In 2015, CO2CRC Ltd embarked on an ambitious plan to field test innovative technologies to monitor a CO2 plume injected into a saline aquifer with a view to address many of the economic and environmental concerns frequently associated with commercial carbon capture and storage project’s long-term monitoring programs (Jenkins et al. 2017). It was called the Otway Stage 3 Project and it was focused on testing the technologies of seismic and downhole pressures applied in unique ways to monitor an injected plume of approximately 15000 tonnes as it developed and migrated in the subsurface. To achieve this goal, five new wells were drilled at CO2CRC’s Otway International Test Centre – one dedicated to injection (drilled in 2017) and the remaining four wells (drilled in 2019) were used for monitoring purposes. Each monitoring well and the gas injection well, were outfitted with fibre optic systems installed and cemented outside the casing (specifically for seismic monitoring) and with pressure gauges installed at the reservoir depth. The challenge of the installation was to install fibre optics outside of the casing, cement them in place securely and to perforate the wells without damaging the fragile TEF bundles. While the installation of the pressure gauges in the injection well was a conventional in-tubing gauge mandrel, the installation in the monitoring wells, which were to be used for water injection as well as pressure monitoring, used a less conventional deployment method, where the gauges were instead installed using a more economic and flexible approach by suspending the gauges from the wellhead via a hanger system. This not only ensured continuous offline monitoring of the downhole well pressures and temperatures, but also facilitated future well operations by simple wireline retrieval and deployment of the gauge, forgoing the need for a workover rig. The various systems were commissioned over the period of March–June 2020 and were in full operation in the second half of 2020 – all successfully operating and acquiring baseline data remotely as designed. The Stage 3 Project commenced gas injection operations in December 2020 and data acquisition using the innovative systems have commenced successfully.

The simultaneous adsorption of quinoline and 4,6-dimethyldibenzothiophene over adsorbents, based on alumina modified with boron and nickel under ambient temperature and pressure, was studied. The adsorbents were characterized by BET specific surface area, a potentiometric method for the determination of acid strength, electrophoretic migration, and X-ray diffraction. The results showed that the adsorbent containing nickel had better adsorption capacity than the adsorbent modified with nickel and boron, which was attributed to its greater acidity and ability to generate π-complexation between the adsorbent and the molecules. In terms of selectivity, quinoline was more adsorbed than 4,6-dimethyldibenzothiophene in all systems, due to the basic nature of quinoline. The experimental data in all cases were adjusted by three kinetic models (Yoon–Nelson, Yan and Thomas), and the regression coefficients in all models were close to one. Finally, the values of the kinetic constant obtained by the Thomas model were used to relate the adsorption capacity results.

Voids that are formed by gas injection in a packed bed play an important role in metallurgical and chemical furnaces. Herein, two-phase gas–solid flow in a two-dimensional packed bed during blast injection was simulated numerically. The results indicate that the void stability was dynamic, and the void shape and size fluctuated within a certain range. To determine the void morphology quantitatively, a probabilistic method was proposed. By statistically analyzing the white probability of each pixel in binary images at multiple times, the void boundaries that correspond to different probability ranges were obtained. The boundary that was most appropriate with the simulation result was selected and defined as the well-matched void boundary. Based on this method, the morphologies of voids that formed at different gas velocities were simulated and compared. The method can help us to express the morphological characteristics of the dynamically stable voids in a numerical simulation.
