Complexation and precipitation of scale-forming cations in oilfield produced water with polyelectrolytes

EPSCoR Research Infrastructure Improvement Program AND Program Evaluation

Chen M, Shafer-Peltier K, Veisi M.
GSID: X1qVIS35Mz8J
M Chen, K Shafer-Peltier, M Veisi, S Randtke… - Separation and …, 2019 - Elsevier

Divalent cations such as Ba 2+, Sr 2+, Ca 2+, and Mg 2+, commonly found in oil/gas produced water at high concentrations, adversely affect oil and gas production by forming scales in pipes, tanks, process equipment such as oil-water...

Removing scale-forming cations from produced waters

EPSCoR Research Infrastructure Improvement Program AND Program Evaluation

Shafer-Peltier K.
GSID: 5k3dHe6L--8J
K Shafer-Peltier, C Kenner, E Albertson… - … : Water Research & …, 2020 - pubs.rsc.org

The formation of precipitates (scales) during reinjection limits the reuse of oil and gas production water (produced water) for additional oil recovery. Selective removal strategies that target Ba and Sr, the primary scale-forming cations, would limit produced water treatment...

Boron removal by electrocoagulation: Removal mechanism, adsorption models and factors influencing removal

EPSCoR Research Infrastructure Improvement Program AND Program Evaluation

Chen M, Dollar O, Shafer-Peltier K.
GSID: ZuTM-CmbxoAJ
M Chen, O Dollar, K Shafer-Peltier, S Randtke… - Water Research, 2020 - Elsevier

Boron (B), normally present in ground water and sea water, is a vital micronutrient for plants, but is also toxic in excessive amounts. Under typical conditions, aqueous boron is present as boric acid (H 3 BO 3), which is...

Competitive association of cations with poly (sodium 4-styrenesulfonate)(PSS) and heavy metal removal from water by PSS-assisted ultrafiltration

EPSCoR Research Infrastructure Improvement Program AND Program Evaluation

Chen M, Shafer-Peltier K.
GSID: kpjXAHdAaVYJ
M Chen, K Shafer-Peltier, SJ Randtke… - Chemical Engineering …, 2018 - Elsevier

Complexing metal cations with water-soluble nano-sized ionic polyelectrolytes, combined with a separation process such as ultrafiltration (UF), is a potential strategy to remove or recover ionic heavy metals from water or wastewater. However, competition from naturally occurring cations (eg,...

Boron removal from synthetic brines and oilfield produced waters using aluminum electrocoagulation

EPSCoR Research Infrastructure Improvement Program AND Program Evaluation

Chen M, Shafer-Peltier K.
GSID: 9DHbayNp-1YJ
M Chen, S Tinner, K Shafer-Peltier, S Randtke… - Science of The Total …, 2022 - Elsevier

High boron (B) levels in oil and gas produced waters prevent its beneficial reuse as irrigation water without proper treatment. Aluminum (Al) electrocoagulation (EC) is a promising technology for B removal, but further research and development is needed to...

Development of highly stable lamella using polyelectrolyte complex nanoparticles: an environmentally friendly scCO2 foam injection method for CO2 utilization using …

GSID: bO-7KT4uDmsJ
N Nazari, H Hosseini, JS Tsau, K Shafer-Peltier… - Fuel, 2020 - Elsevier

CO 2 foam flooding is a proven technology that enhances oil recovery and geological storage by improving the mobility of the injected CO 2 in depleted reservoirs. Surfactant drainage, disintegration and rock adsorption have long affected the stability of...

Modeling arsenic (V) removal from water by micellar enhanced ultrafiltration in the presence of competing anions

EPSCoR Research Infrastructure Improvement Program AND Program Evaluation

Chen M, Peltier E, Shafer-Peltier K.
GSID: j2Q_71sFcC4J
M Chen, K Shafer-Peltier, SJ Randtke, E Peltier - Chemosphere, 2018 - Elsevier

With increasing arsenic (As) contamination incidents reported around the world, better processes for As removal from industrial wastewater and other contaminated waters are required to protect drinking water sources. Complexation of As with cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) cationic surfactant micelles,...

Experimental and Mechanistic Study of Stabilized Dry CO2 Foam Using Polyelectrolyte Complex Nanoparticles Compatible with Produced Water To Improve …

Hosseini H, Shafer-Peltier K, Tsau JS.
GSID: G-du4fi7nKYJ
H Hosseini, JS Tsau, K Shafer-Peltier… - … Chemistry Research, 2019 - ACS Publications

The amount of fresh water used in hydraulic fracturing can be significantly reduced by employing produced water-compatible supercritical CO2 (scCO2) foams. Foams generated using surfactants only have suffered from long-term stability issues resulting in low viscosity and proppant-carrying problems....

Controlled release of poly (vinyl sulfonate) scale inhibitor to extend reservoir treatment lifetime

EPSCoR Research Infrastructure Improvement Program AND Program Evaluation

Johnson S, Shafer‐Peltier K, Veisi M.
GSID: K9VQu-qO-OsJ
M Veisi, S Johnson, K Shafer‐Peltier… - Journal of Applied …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library

Precipitate scale formation is a major issue for the oil industry, plugging equipment, and reservoirs and resulting in increased operational costs. Poly (vinyl sulfonate)(PVS) is often used as a scale inhibitor to prevent the formation of barium sulfate scale....
