This work investigated carboxymethyl hydroxypropyl guar (CMHPG) as a potential base polymer for a fracturing fluid used in deep tight gas wells, synonym to high-temperature reservoirs. Fracturing is a common method to improve oil production by creating fractures in potentially productive reservoirs using fracturing fluids. Fracturing fluids are typically composed of water, sand, proppant, and many different additives to alter the capabilities of the fluid.A stable high-density fracturing fluid (HDFF) was developed to cope with scorching good temperatures up to 350F (177C)as well as to reduce the surface treating pressure. The HDFF consists of NaBr heavy brine, CMHPG, clay stabilizers, and zirconium and borate crosslinkers. A linear gel fluid was prepared by combining NaBr brine with CMHPG before adding the additives. The resulting fluid was then tested using a high-pressure, high-temperature (HPHT) rheometer.The results showed that the performance of the HDFF was optimum in an alkaline environment between pH 10 to 12. The efficiency of zirconium and borate crosslinkers were optimum at 0.7 ppm and 1.5 ppt, respectively. Concentrations higher than these values are not only uneconomical but will cause the fluid to be overly crosslinked, consequently reducing efficiency. In actual field operation, this is disastrous when the fluid does not flow to the fracturing column but instead swirls around the drill string as the drill string rotates. On the other hand, a reduction of concentration below the optimum values can cause fluid instability at high temperature reservoirs.The study was limited to using two different kinds of crosslinkers and various concentrations. Future studies can be conducted using other kinds of crosslinkers, as well as an investigation into the effects of varying temperatures, pressures, and pH on the HDFF using CMHPG.It can be concluded that HDFF using CMHPG as the base polymer can be a potential use in formulating fracturing fluids.Information on the rheological behaviour of HDFF using NaBr and CMHPG can provide a reference point for future scientists in developing a new formulation of fracturing fluid.

The paper investigated the effect of selected processing conditions during gear grinding on the value and distribution of microhardness and residual stress formed in the technological surface layer of gears after thermochemical treatment (TCT) conducted by a continuous single-piece flow method.The gears were carburised with LPC at 920C, then quenched in a 4D Quenching chamber at 7 bar and tempered at 190C for 3 hours. In the next step, the working surfaces of the gear teeth were ground by supplying grinding fluid (GF) to the grinding zone using the WET method and the MQL method with a minimum amount. Measurements were made on the distribution of microhardness and residual stress formed in the technological surface layer of gears after thermochemical treatment and after the grinding process.The results of the study showed the influence of workpiece speed vw and the method of delivery to the grinding zone GF on selected parameters describing the condition of the technological surface layer of the teeth of gears made of 20MnCr5 steel. The grinding process with a white aluminium oxide grinding wheel causes deterioration in the material's residual stress state. For each of the three analysed workpiece speeds vw, smaller changes in microhardness with respect to the microhardness of the material before grinding occur in the surface layer of samples ground with GF fed with the MQL method. Similarly, residual stress values are in the area of favourable compressive stresses.Environmental considerations and the need to comply with increasingly stringent environmental protection and worker safety regulations are pushing researchers and entrepreneurs to completely eliminate or reduce the consumption of grinding fluids in the grinding process. Based on the research and analysis carried out in this study, it was concluded that applying minimum GF by the MQL method could be an alternative to the conventional WET method.In sustainable manufacturing, it is extremely important to produce high-quality items while reducing the cost of manufacturing and taking care of the environment and workers' health. This includes the manufacture of gears, a basic component used in gear transmissions in the automotive industry, for example. The research has established that it is possible to use the MQL method, which reduces the amount of GF used when grinding the working surfaces of gear teeth, as an alternative to the conventional WET method.The conducted research was the first to determine the most favourable conditions, in terms of the obtained residual stresses and microhardness, for grinding the working surface of gear teeth using the MQL method.

Machining silicon carbide (SiC) is challenging due to its brittle and maximum tensile nature. Lapping or laser beam are done with a high cost of manufacturing and low material removal rates. Water abrasive jet cutting is a promising candidate since the machining temperatures and processing force of ceramics are extremely low. Investigation into the abrasive water jet machining of silicon carbide is carried out in the present work.The variations in traverse speed while abrasive water jet cutting of silicon carbide and its effect on the surface roughness and kerf characteristics are studied. Silicon Carbide abrasive material is used as garnet consisting of 80 mesh. The surface roughness was calculated along with the depth of the cut made during the processing.The outcomes demonstrated that the traverse speed is more effective upon the surface roughness and is an important factor that damages the top kerf width and the kerf taper angle.Based on the hardness and thickness of the SiC plate, the taper angle is high, and for a feed rate of 10 mm/min, the surface roughness is low. Less thickness of the SiC plate could have a lower taper angle than with high thickness. The erosive force is provided by abrasive material along with the jet stream.Water abrasive fine jet could effectively machinate silicon carbide ceramic material with a better surface finish accurately. Suitable surface roughness with higher productivity can be attained with medium traverse speed.The effect of process parameters on kerf taper angle and top kerf width in the abrasive water jet machining of silicon carbide is explored, considering surface roughness as an important output parameter.

This work aims to improve the powder-bed spreading process for laser powder bed fusion additive manufacturing by gaining a greater understanding of metal powder flowability through numerical modelling and in-situ experimentation.Using the Discrete Element Method (DEM) to study the flowability of the powder and its intrinsic properties. A high-fidelity particle-scale model was developed to capture the dynamics of metal particle interactions in a virtual Hall flow meter based on a modified Beverloo law. The results are validated experimentally using the Hall flow static powder characterisation technique.For SS316L powder alloy with the hall-value of 29s/50g and with an angle of repose (AOR) of 32, the modelled powder that exhibited the same flow behaviour was found using 0.5 for both rolling and sliding coefficients resulting in simulated Hall value of 28.55s/50g with a simulated flow rate of 0.571 g/s, which is validated by AOR of the simulated powder [31.2-32.6]. However, rolling friction had minimal effect on the mass flow rate but increased the angle of repose. Sliding friction significantly decreased the mass flow rate and increased AOR.DEM is an ideal method to study flowability. However, there are certain constraints imposed on the computational power by a number of simulated particles and simulation time-step. Future research may involve investigating other dynamic flowability characterisation techniques.Enabling a better understanding of powder particle flow at a micro-scale by modelling powder flowability. This leads to simulating a more realistic powder bed and improving the powder spreading process, leading to better AM parts quality.This paper provides a unique approach for modelling the flowability of SS316L powder using a Beverloo law-based design of the Hall flow meter. This will improve the modelling of the spreading process needed for metal 3D printing.

Investigation of some parameters of energy storage devices (so-called supercapacitors) in which the structures of selected conductive polymers were implemented. Researchers were interested in the relationship between the parameters of the supercapacitor and the molecular structure of the conductive polymer used as the electrode material.The polypyrrole and its derivatives were produced by an electropolymerization process performed with cyclic voltammetry. During the research, polymer supercapacitors were created containing collectors made of ITO plates. Measurement of device parameters using cyclic voltammetry and chronopotentiometry. In addition, the devices use polymer electrolytes based on poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA).Devices containing polypyrrole have the best electrochemical parameters, while supercapacitors containing poly (phenylpyrrole) have the lowest parameters. This parameter is due to the high hindrance in the poly(phenylpyrrole) molecule in the form of an aromatic ring.The most significant limitation of the devices is their durability due to the low strength of the conductive layer on ITO plates. This layer was easily degraded with too many test cycles.It was confirmed that polypyrrole and its derivatives could be used as electrode materials in energy storage devices.One of the few studies that allow the evaluation of the molecular structure of polypyrrole and its derivatives as electrode material in symmetrical supercapacitors.

This research aims to investigate the detailed state of adsorption kinetics modelling and research on the application of hydrogen sulfide adsorption by hydrogel derived from empty fruit bunch (EFB), the determination of the kinetics parameters, and the comparison between models in a selection of the best-fit model.The kinetics modelling used are pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order models. The correlation coefficient was used to evaluate the suitability of the equation R2. After obtaining the results, the comparison was made by comparing the R2 of each model. The pseudo-second-order model has a higher value of correlation coefficient, R2, making it the most suitable kinetics model for adsorption systems.The R2 for pseudo-first-order on the effect of dry bed height was 0.8814, whereas its effect on powder bed height was 0.9537, and that of the wet bed height was 0.9607. Meanwhile, the R2 for pseudo-second-order on the effect of dry bed height was 0.89, on the effect of the powder bed height was 0.99, and on the effect of the bed height of wet was 0.99, the highest among kinetic models. Based on the results, the pseudo-second-order model best describes the adsorption of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) by hydrogel biochar.The kinetics modelling used are pseudo-first-order, and pseudo-second-order models for hydrogen sulfide adsorption by hydrogel originating from empty fruit bunches (EFB).Based on the results, the pseudo-second-order model best describes the adsorption of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) by hydrogel biochar.

This article focuses on a comparative analysis of the technology of additive shaping and multi-axis CNC machining. The authors examine the impact of 3D printing assumptions and CNC machining conditions on the strength of the selected PET material used to produce machine elements on the example of a shaft-type element. The purpose of the study is to identify a better production method.The analysis was carried out by producing six samples of different diameters and lengths from the same thermoplastic material (ethylene terephthalate) by both 3D printing (FDM) and CNC machining. The resulting samples were subjected to a static compression test, for which a universal testing machine by Zwick & Roell 100 kN was used. The following factors during the production of elements were compared: the difficulty of preparing the project, the time of execution, the cost of execution, the accuracy of the execution and the properties of the elements made.Elements made by CNC machining have higher compressive strength and yield strength, as well as lower relative expansion and relative shortening. Those produced by CNC machining are created as a monolith (semi-finished product), and the printed elements are incrementally shaped layer by layer. During the strength test, the spaces between the layers decrease, which in turn causes an increase in relative shortening and a decrease in strength properties.Further research is planned on the analysis of manufacturing technology using incremental shaping technology (e.g. change of filling density, change of filling type, change of material) compared to CNC machining.In the conducted tests, a universal method was used, which can be translated into a comparative study of elements made of other materials.The research carried out allowed for the initial assessment of the use of PET material for the production of machine elements through 3D printing and CNC machining.

The authors examine the impact of 3D printing assumptions and CNC machining conditions on the strength of the selected PET material used to produce machine elements on the example of a shaft-type element. The purpose of the study is to identify a better production method.The analysis was carried out by producing six samples of different diameters and lengths from the same thermoplastic material (ethylene terephthalate) by both 3D printing (FDM) and CNC machining. The resulting samples were subjected to a static compression test, for which a universal testing machine by Zwick & Roell 100 kN was used.

The research aims to investigate the effect of the process parameter of progressive freeze concentration to eliminate tricholorophenol in wastewater.A stainless steel crystallizer was used throughout the experiment. Simulated wastewater containing trichlorophenol (TCP) was used as a sample solution, and ethylene glycol was utilized as a coolant to induce the heat transfer at a very low temperature. Progressive freeze crystallization (PFC) is an approach to purify water by implementing the fundamental concept of difference freezing point. In short, the PFC system produces ice-crystal layer by layer on a cooled surface until it forms a large and single-crystal block, leaving the impurities in the mother liquor.It is established that operating time and initial concentration influence the PFC performance. The findings show that the intermediate operating time gave the highest removal of TCP in wastewater. Meanwhile, for the effect of initial concentration, it was discovered that the lowest initial concentration resulted in the best TCP reduction with high purity of the water was obtained.The results can be complemented by studies of the effect of coolant temperature and solution movement. These two parameters are believed to potentially improve the PFC performance.The findings can be implemented to select the optimal operating condition to treat the wastewater, especially in the industrial area with hazardous TCP.The obtained results testify to the predominant influence of operating time and initial concentration on the PFC performance in eliminating TCP in wastewater.

Respiratory diseases affect the lungs and other parts of the respiratory system. The respiratory disease affects hundreds of millions of humans, and premature death is observed in nearly four million people yearly. The major cause of the increase in this disease is the increased level of air pollution and higher tobacco usage in public places.We have used the search engines PubMed and Google Scholar for the keywords Respiratory diseases, Nanomaterials, diagnosis, Nanomedicine, and Target drug delivery; recent and relevant articles are selected for reviewing this paper.Nanomedicine is a recent field of research that deals with monitoring, repairing, theragnosis, and development of human biological systems at the sub-atomic level, where we utilize engineered nanodevices and nanostructures. The conventional therapeutic strategies designed for respiratory diseases have limited solubility and bioavailability. Moreover, the robust effect of the drugs led to adverse side effects due to their high dose requirement. The local delivery of therapeutic Nanoparticles (NPs) or drug-loaded nano vehicles to the lung is a safe technique for managing various respiratory tract-related diseases like chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, cystic fibrosis, lung cancer, tuberculosis, asthma, and infection. To overcome the difficulties of conventional treatment with antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs, nano-enabled drug delivery, nanoformulations of drugs as well as drug nanoencapsulation have been used recently. In this mini-review, we will discuss the importance and application of nanomedicine for diagnosis, treatment and clinical research involved in the different types of respiratory diseases.Nanomedicine provides an alternative delivery of drugs with the help of various nanocarriers, which enhances controlled drug delivery at the pulmonary region and can be used for treating and diagnosing respiratory diseases in vivo and in vitro studies. Further experiments followed by clinical examination are warranted to prove the potential application of nanomedicine in treating respiratory disease.This mini-review will help the readers and budding scientists apply new methods for developing highly efficient drugs with low side effects and improved targeted sites of action.
