Oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane with carbon dioxide over iron-nickel nano-alloys supported on metal oxide overlayers by Raseale, Shaine

“…Promoters such as Fe-based oxides have been studied to enhance the CO2-activation functionality and stability of the oxides [5]. A Density Functional Theory (DFT) study suggested that bimetallic alloys can have superior activity for CO2-activation compared to their monometallic counterparts [16]. …”

Influence of Processed Natural Black Sand vs. Natural White Sand and Silica Flour as Additives to Oil-Well Cementing Applications by Abuel Maaty, Ramy

“…Phase #1 (Pilot Phase) compared natural black sand and white sand additives to Portland cement without any other additives in ambient conditions and water to cement ratio (W/C) of 0.5. Phase #2 of the experiments studied the impact of natural black sand and white sand on Portland cement, with the addition of anti-foam and dispersant, under a testing temperature of 100 F, a pressure of 4400 psi, and W/C ratio of 0.46. …”
