Fall 2017
Metallurgical coke is an important raw material for iron making in a blast furnace. Two significant criteria for selecting high quality coke are Coke Reactivity Index (CRI) and Coke Strength after Reaction with carbon dioxide (CSR). CSR and CRI tests are expensive, labor-intensive and...

Spring 2016
The tendency of asphaltenes to aggregate in crude oil is observed at SATP and is enhanced at elevated temperatures. At these conditions, asphaltenes aggregation is a problem as it will ultimately lead to mesophase formation, a precursor of coke, known for causing plugging and fouling of...

Raman Spectroscopic Properties of Aqueous Chloride Salt Solutions: Chlorides of Alkalis, Alkaline Earths and First-Row Transition Metals
DownloadFall 2022
Saline aqueous fluids play numerous key roles in many geologic processes, but how fluids flow and interact with rocks depends on their physical and chemical properties, which in turn depend on the types, concentrations, and speciation of solutes. Raman spectroscopy is a powerful tool to identify...
