This study introduces the innovative application of a vapor chamber to mitigate fuel freezing and temperature disparity in power generation cabins operating under extreme cold conditions. A vapor chamber was designed and implemented within a low-temp...

Increased emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) from industrial activities are the main cause of the growing problem of global warming and climate change, highlighting the needs for efficient CO2 capture and storage (CCS) techniques. The present work aim...

This article presents the results of laboratory studies on the smelting of nickel–chromium-containing ferroalloys from low-grade nickel ores from Kazakhstan. X-ray phase analysis was performed on raw materials, which included quartz, nontronite...

Sustainable bio-based epoxy technology is developed by using bio-based epoxy materials instead of conventional fossil-derived ones. Significant progress in new bio-based epoxy material development on bio-based epoxy resins, curing agents, and additiv...

A one-micron-thick pure zinc oxide (ZnO) and nitrogen-doped zinc oxide (N-ZnO) film were fabricated on p-type, pristine (non-porous), and porous gallium nitride (GaN) substrates using a radio frequency (RF) sputtering technique at room temperature. T...

This paper focuses on a midstream pipeline to help us develop a better understanding of Pipeline Inspection Gauge (PIG) operation. A methodological combination of non-destructive testing (NDT), non-destructive evaluation (NDE), and risk-based inspect...

Interest in hydrogen has grown as a means to decarbonize future energy systems. To maximize hydrogen’s potential as the main energy carrier, the infrastructure for hydrogen production, distribution, and storage needs to be designed and develope...

In order to prevent and control the problem of wellbore instability during the drilling process in shale formations, this study, based on the unique rheological properties, water solubility, and thermal stability of sodium alginate (SA), systematical...

In response to the special requirements for shale gas reservoir stimulation, a novel environmentally responsive fracturing fluid thickener was designed and developed in this paper. N,N-dimethylhexadecylallylammonium chloride (C16DMAAC), N-vinylpyrrol...

Fructooligosaccharides (FOSs) are carbohydrates of high nutritional value with various prebiotic properties. Optimizing their production process is of significant interest for expanding commercial-scale production. This review discusses the propertie...
