markers (salt, anhydrite). The cleanest, most porous, intervals. The cleanest, water-bearing, intervals. The cleanest, hydrocarbon-bearing, intervals. The fluid contacts: gas/oil, oil/water. The transition zones. 6. Tackle one unknown at a time. For example, when deriving an Rw value from logs, choose a water-bearing zone as nearly identical as possible to the hydrocarbon zone of interest. This means the two zones have the same lithology, have the same or very similar porosity values, have

Abstract: Bioremediation is the technology which is used to clean up the environmental pollutants. Bioremediation can be introduced as an efficient and cost effective method for the cleanup of contaminated waste water. Waste water contains heavy metals like Cadmium,Chromium, Nickel, Lead, Selenium,Arsenic, and Zinc.These metals are poisonous to the human body system. These metals can be removed using this technique. Currently microorganisms are widely used in Bioremediation process, generally in

and was organised around promoting laissez-faire principles of the free market (Harvey, 2005, pp.7). In Venezuela, neoliberal supporters Carlos Andrés Pérez and Rafael Caldera implemented widespread privatisation and deregulation, notably of the hydrocarbon industry (Ellner, 2008, pp.92), plus eroded the welfare state and social services (Meltzer, 2009, pp.90), resulting in a socio-economic crisis leaving 54% of Venezuelans in poverty (Muntaner et al., 2006). However, the turn of the 21st century marked

state, and nation. To determine this, the class needed to estimate the annual average emission produced by an average car at the college. With this data, we were able to determine the amount of carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxide, and hydrocarbons that are released into the atmosphere every day. In my original hypothesis, I assumed that the numbers we were going to find would be extremely high, however, I was still surprised by the actual amounts we deduced. However, I did hypothesize that

Pollution and Society *By Osanyinpeju* Aisha We all know that pollution in our world effects two essential aspects of our planet: air and water. Although their pollutants are emitted in completely different ways, they both harm living organisms. Air pollution is predominately emitted though the exhaust of motor vehicles and the combustion of fossil fuels, whereas water pollution is the result of industrial waste and environmental accidents. Our society knows that pollution is harmful and a serious

In the last twelve months, the decline in oil and gas activities has not only led to retrenchment of workers in the oil and gas sector in the Niger Delta region in Nigeria, mainly within the International Oil Companies (IOC”s), but has also affected non-related oil and gas sectors such as the contractors and vendors to the Oil and Gas sector; this has triggered several thoughts outside the box to welcome an industry diversification. The Nigerian Government, which solely depends on the oil and gas

Therefore, they cannot dissolve in polar substances like water. [1] This is the guideline followed by the non-polar hydrocarbon biphenyl. Similarly, the ‘like dissolves like’ concept explains biphenyl’s ability to dissolve in hexane. Ethanol’s insolubility is caused by sp2 hybridization of orbitals of biphenyl which generate more polarity than the sp3 hybridized orbitals

tars and oils ,heavy metal, particulate matter to condense out in a waste water stream. Reforming Process At low temperature gasifiers a significant fraction of gas heating value is entrapped in methane and other hydrocarbons. Reforming process is the alteration of hydrocarbon properties by rearranging it .It upgrades the methanol and hydrogen production through steam reforming. In fact, the most widely used method to produce hydrogen by steam reforming natural gas (Probstein, 1982).

A pesticide is a substance used for preventing, controlling, and destroying pests. Pesticides are a class of biocides, which are poisonous substances. Plant protection products, which protect plants from detrimental things such as weeds, insects, and plant diseases, are the most common use of pesticides. Pesticides are also used in non-agricultural ways. Pesticides are, generally, chemical or biological agents that disable or kill pests. Some common pests are weeds, insects, birds, molluscs, mammals
