Experimental Study And Economic Evaluation Of Low Temperature Drying Treatment Of Abandoned Water-Based Drilling Fluid, Li Zhijun, Liu Xusan, Wang Bo, Zhao Wei Aug 2019

Experimental Study And Economic Evaluation Of Low Temperature Drying Treatment Of Abandoned Water-Based Drilling Fluid, Li Zhijun, Liu Xusan, Wang Bo, Zhao Wei

Coal Geology & Exploration

Abandoned water-based drilling fluids are the waste of oil drilling engineering operations. It will not only keep the cost of drilling fluid high, but also have a very adverse impact on the environment if it is directly discharged. Reusing of abandoned water-based drilling fluid after low-temperature drying treatment is one of treatment methods which is economic and conforms to the modern development trend. In this paper, the experimental study and economic evaluation of the low-temperature drying technology of polymer drilling fluid system, sulfonated drilling fluid system and Sichuan shale gas well drilling fluid system were conducted. The results show that …


1993 - Lessons Learned From The California Drought (1987-1992) - National Study Of Water Management During Drought Jan 2019

1993 - Lessons Learned From The California Drought (1987-1992) - National Study Of Water Management During Drought

Miscellaneous Documents and Reports

The 1987-92 drought in California put the long-term strategy of drought protection as well as short-term drought response measures to a severe test. The report provides background information and data on California's economy and water resources, the existing water management system. , a chronology of major drought events and significant drought response actions during the droughts.

The report summarizes the contents of the interviews pertaining to four general aspects of the drought: (1) critical drought impacts, (2) communication and cooperation, (3) the role and responsibilities of the media, and (4) response to the drought of the general public and water …

Eficiencia De Elementos De Protección Respiratoria Evaluada En Tres Modos De Transporte En Bogotá, Camila Andrea Figueredo Salinas, Fabián Leonardo Moreno Camacho

Ingeniería Ambiental y Sanitaria

La contaminación atmosférica causa 6,5 millones de muertes al año (11,6% de todas las muertes mundiales) (Organización Mundial de la Salud-OMS, 2017). El impacto producido por la contaminación atmosférica en Colombia asciende a $ 15,4 billones de pesos (1,93% del PIB de 2015) asociados a 10.527 muertes y 67,8 millones de síntomas y enfermedades. (Departamento Nacional de Planeación - DNP, 2017). En Bogotá, como en otras ciudades de países en desarrollo, la contaminación atmosférica es consecuencia del rápido y desordenado crecimiento de la ciudad (Ramírez, Arias, & Santa, 2016), y se origina principalmente en fuentes móviles, en fuentes fijas y …
