Pelargonic Acid In Enhanced Oil Recovery, Hossein Noureddini, M L. Rempe
Pelargonic Acid In Enhanced Oil Recovery, Hossein Noureddini, M L. Rempe
Papers in Biomaterials
Oxidation of monounsaturated iatty ac~dss,u ch as erucic and oleic acids, results in the for~nation of dibasic fatty acids, such as brassylic and azelaic acids. Dibasic acids find many inclustrial applications. Prlargon~ca cid is the co-product oi the process. Expanded use oi dibasic acids would require an expansion in the existing and possihiy new uses for pelargoriic acid and its derivatives. In this study, the potential for using pe!argonic acid in enhanced oil recovery is investigated. Experimental results are presented ior the enhanccd oil recover" by waterilooding with the aid oi a surfactan;. In sifu iormation of surfactant at the …
Viscosities Of Vegetable Oils And Fatty Acids, Hossein Noureddini, B C. Teoh, L Davis Clements
Viscosities Of Vegetable Oils And Fatty Acids, Hossein Noureddini, B C. Teoh, L Davis Clements
Papers in Biomaterials
Data for viscosity as a function of temperature from 24 to llO°C (75 to 230°F) have been measured for a number of vegetable oils (crambe, rapeseed, corn, soybean, milk- coconut, lesquerella) and eight fatty acids in the from Cg to CZZ The viscosity measurements were performed according to ASTM test methods D 445 and D 446. Several correlations were fitted to the experimental data. Correlation constants for the best fit are presented. The range of temperature in which the correlations are valid is from 24'C (75'F), or the melting point of the substance, to llO°C (230°F). The correlation constants are …

Complete data for density as a function of temperature have been measured for a number of vegetable oils (cramhe, rapeseed, corn, soybean, milkweed, coconut, lesquerella), as well as eight fatty acids in the range CS to C,, at temperatures from above their melting points to llQ°C (23Q°F). The specific gravity and density measure mente were performed according to American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standard test methods D 368, D 891 and D 1298 for hydrometers and a modified ASTM D 369 and D 891 for pycnometers. Correlation constants, based on the experimental data, are presented for calculating the …
