Application of Nanocellulose in Oilfield Chemistry

The preparation and classification of nanocellulose are briefly introduced, and the modification of nanocellulose and the application of modified nanocellulose in oilfield chemistry are reviewed. The principles and methods of surface modification, including surface adsorption, oxidation, acetylation, silanization, etherification, and polymer grafting, are summarized. Meanwhile, this paper focuses on the application of nanocellulose research progress in drilling fluid, enhanced oil recovery, and oilfield sewage treatment. In addition, the application issues and natural advantages of nanocellulose are analyzed, and suggestions and ideas on how to expand its application are put forward. Finally, the development and potential application of nanocellulose in oilfield chemistry are proposed.
