Mobility of solid and porous hollow SiO2 nanoparticles in saturated porous media: Impacts of surface and particle structure

Vinicius Bueno et al.

Summary: This study investigated the transport of two different structures of SiO2 NPs under different conditions and found that pH and ionic strength significantly affect their mobility. Porous hollow SiO2 NPs exhibited greater deposition in sand-packed columns compared to solid SiO2 NPs, attributed to their greater surface roughness and specific surface area.

Sorption of Nanomaterials to Sandstone Rock

Christian Scheurer et al.

Summary: The interaction between silica nanostructured particles and sandstone rock was investigated using various experimental approaches. The highest adsorption was observed in brine with high ionic strength, and the addition of alkali reduced adsorption. Berea rock crushed material showed slightly higher adsorption compared to Keuper rock, and temperature had a minor effect on adsorption behavior. In core-flood experiments, there was no effect on permeability. The nanoparticles showed a delayed breakthrough compared to the tracer, with larger particles passing through the rock core faster. SEM images suggested that adsorption spots were defined by surface roughness rather than mineral type.

Adsorption of nanoparticles on glass bead surface for enhancing proppant performance: A systematic experimental study

Faisal Ur Rahman Awan et al.

Summary: The study introduced a new dynamic soaking technique called PCFB adsorption to coat four bare nanoparticles onto a fixed glass bead proppant pack. Through a systematic study of nanofluid adsorption onto the proppant pack, it was found that nanoparticles with higher specific surface area had faster adsorption rates and higher immobilization on the proppant pack. This method can be used for on-site treatment of proppants with nanoparticles for achieving multiple objectives.

Interfacial Rheology of Foam Stabilized by Nanoparticles and Their Retention in Porous Media

Qian Sun et al.

Summary: Nanoparticle-stabilized foam has attracted attention for its applications in oil fields. This research investigates the impact of SiO2 nanoparticles and SDS on foam stability and interfacial properties, as well as the retention behaviors of nanoparticles in sandpacks with different permeabilities. The results show that nanoparticles and SDS have a synergistic effect on foam stability, with nanoparticles impacting surface pressure slightly.
