This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thougtit that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all con cerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an interna tional publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Cor poration of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 31 (thesis year 1986) a total of 11 ,480 theses titles trom 24 Canadian and 182 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base tor these titles reported will greatly enhance the value ot this important annual reterence work. While Volume 31 reports theses submitted in 1986, on occasion, certain univer sities do re port theses submitted in previousyears but not reported at the time.

This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Waste drilling mud is the second largest waste stream produced in the oil and gas industry after produced water and cannot be discharged or landfilled without proper treatment to meet regulatory requirements. Various contaminants are present in the waste drilling mud, including petroleum hydrocarbons, heavy metals, BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene, and xylenes), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and other hazardous materials typically originating from the base drilling fluids. Strict environmental regulations are in place regarding the disposal of the waste drilling mud and cuttings to minimize their effect to the environment. Therefore, the waste drilling mud must be properly treated before being released into the environment. Different technologies have been proposed for waste drilling mud remediation; however, most of them are unable to meet the strict environmental regulation limits. In this thesis, different technologies to treat the waste drilling mud are reviewed. After a technical comparison, physical treatment technologies were selected as the most suitable methods. The main aim of this study is to investigate the abilities of the methods of surfactant-enhanced washing and supercritical CO2 extraction, to treat the waste drilling mud and remove the hazardous petroleum hydrocarbons to meet the strict environmental regulations. The specific objectives of the study are to: (1) characterize the waste drilling mud using particle size distribution, X-ray diffraction (XRD), inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer (ICP-OES), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and gas chromatography GC analyses; (2) identify of the most efficient, environmentally-friendly, and cost-effective technologies to treat the waste drilling mud; (3) screen and select the best surfactants for drilling mud remediation using interfacial tension and sorption analyses; (4) experimentally determine the impacts of significant factors on the efficiency of the two physical processes, surfactant-enhanced washing and supercritical CO2 extraction (SCE); (5) optimize both the surfactant-enhanced washing and supercritical CO2 extraction processes; and (6) evaluate both the physical treatment processes considering efficiency, environmental impacts, and possible separation and/or recovery of hydrocarbons. A technical review was completed by considering key factors in an efficient process for waste drilling mud remediation, including efficiency, particle size effect, environmental impact, cost, energy requirement, and processing time. Surfactant-enhanced washing and supercritical CO2 extraction were selected as two viable, efficient, and environmentallyfriendly physical treatment methods. Three surfactants, one anionic (Alfoterra 145-8S 90), one non-ionic (Triton 100), and one biosurfactant (Saponin), were experimentally analyzed, and Triton 100 (TX-100) was selected as the best surfactant based on the interfacial tension and sorption analyses. Experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of different parameters on the surfactant-enhanced washing process' efficiency, using Triton 100 as the most suitable surfactant, including (i) contact time, (ii) surfactant concentration, and (iii) temperature, and to obtain the optimized operating conditions. The supercritical CO2 extraction experiments were also designed and conducted to investigate the effects of three parameters, including (i) temperature, (ii) pressure, and (iii) contact time on the process' efficiency. The result of this study suggested that even though the surfactant-enhanced washing was able to remove up to 70% of the petroleum hydrocarbons, the process could not be employed to treat the waste drilling mud to meet the landfilling regulations. The supercritical CO2 extraction process, however, was capable of removing the petroleum hydrocarbons up to more than 97% when operated at the optimized conditions and could effectively remediate the waste drilling mud considering the initial total petroleum hydrocarbon concentration). Based on the results of this study, supercritical CO2 extraction (SCE) process was recommended as an efficient and environmentally-friendly method to remove the total petroleum hydrocarbons from the waste drilling mud to meet the provincial, national, and universal environmental regulations. The SCE process could easily separate the hydrocarbons from the waste mud effectively and in a short amount of time. The supercritical CO2 extraction process could be tested and implemented for other contaminated substances with petroleum hydrocarbons as well. Although further investigation may be required, the results of this study can be a guide for future research on similar remediation processes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Niger Delta region is the oil producing area of Nigeria, which consist of highly diverse ecosystems that is supportive of numerous species of terrestrial and aquatic fauna and flora. This region is the largest wetland in Africa and it is among the ten most important wetlands and marine ecosystems in the world. Incident of oil spill raises concern about seafood safety. Crude oil spill endangers fish hatcheries in coastal water and also contaminates commercially valuable fish flesh. This study examines the effect of oil spills on fish production in the Niger Delta of Nigeria from 1981-2015 using an estimable model based on a Cobb Douglas production function. The variables included in the model are captured fish production, number of fishers, loan to fishery, oil spills and oil production. The findings suggest that oil spill and oil production negatively affects fish production, while farm labour has a positive effect on fish production. On the other hand, fishery loan exerts a negative effect on fish production and this could be ascribed to the bottlenecks in trying to access these loans. The Pairwise Granger Causality test result shows that the number of times oil is spilled to the environment affects the level of fish production negatively. This study corroborates the findings in recent literature and proposes a cautious approach to oil exploration activities for sustainable economic development.
