A producing gas and water well in northern Michigan had experienced severe barium sulfate scale deposition in the downhole pump on three separate occasions over an eighteen week period. The well averaged 75 BWPD and had approximately 50 feet of rat hole with a bottom hole temperature of 70 degrees...
A producing gas and water well in northern Michigan had experienced severe calcium carbonate scale deposition in the rotor and stator assembly of the progressive cavity pump. The well averaged 100 BWPD and had a rat hole depth of approximately 50 feet and a bottom hole temperature of 70F. In...
A producing gas and water well in northern Michigan had experienced severe calcium carbonate scale deposition in the rod pump, causing pump failure. The well averaged 20 BWPD and had approximately 50 feet of rat hole with a bottom hole temperature of 70F. In order to prevent subsequent calcium carbonate...
A gas well in Vermilion Parish, Louisiana was experiencing severe calcium carbonate scale deposition in the water dump valves from the production separator, heater treater, and hydro-cyclone. The scale deposition resulted in restriction in the water-handling piping, resulting in carry-over, causing down time for scale removal. A product was selected...
Micro-Wave PECVD with a linear plasma source is applied for deposition of intrinsic layers for mc-Si solar cells. An important advantage of the linear MW-PECVD method is the capability of large-area deposition of Si layers at high deposition rates. This makes MW-PECVD method a promising method for large-scale industrial fabrication...
This paper describes about the deposition on cooler pipes in gasification of biomass which was investigated by means of inserting cooled stainless steel probes in the exhaust of ECN's 500 kWth gasifier. The deposition formed at various probe temperatures was examined. Deposits were found in one or two layers: a...
This paper is focused on silica formation, deposition and its inhibition in desalination applications by following designed chemical approaches. More specifically, benchtop screening tests on various silica inhibition chemistries are reported, with emphasis on additives with dendrimeric or polymeric structure and backbone. Experimental results show that inhibition efficiency largely depends...
The paper mentions that although often mentioned together, paraffin and asphaltene are distinctly different in their composition, their behavior and the conditions that lead to deposition. Controlling paraffin and asphaltene problems requires one to understand the conditions that lead to deposition and the different solutions and when each is appropriate....
A law designed to simplify the process of obtaining discovery from non-party witnesses establishes a procedure for admitting business records obtained from non-parties into evidence at trial or hearing without the need of live testimony from a “foundation” witness. The new law, effective Sept. 23, 2003, amends three sections of...
On September 24, 2002, Governor Pataki signed a law designed to simplify the process of obtaining discovery from non-party witnesses. The law also establishes a procedure for admitting business records obtained from non-parties into evidence at trial or hearing without the need of live testimony from a "foundation" witness. The...
This white paper report documents the efforts to develop analytic deposition models for electrostatic rotating bell ESRB atomizers, which have recently become widely used in the automotive painting industry. The models presents both the surface curvature and the deposition pattern of ESRB atomizers, enabling planning tools to optimize atomizer trajectories...
This paper briefly outlines about unique polymer which has been developed to improve white pitch fixation. The intensive use of recycled paper and reduction of fresh water demand has increased the buildup of interfering substances in paper machines circuits. These substances have a negative influence on paper machine run ability...
