Determination of sulphur and ash content in the sample of coal charcoaMithil Fal Desai
The residue left after the burning of coal is known as ash. It is generally composed of inorganic substances. The total sulphur content of coal can be determined gravimetrically by the Eschka method. In this method, a coal sample is heated with the Eschka mixture (2:1 calcined magnesia and anhydrous sodium carbonate by weight) in an oxidizing atmosphere. This removes majorly all combustible matter and converts all forms of sulphur (pyritic’ and ‘organic, sulphur) to sulphate

Optimized Geochemical Modeling of Produced Fluids Provides Important Insight ...Donald Carpenter
Pitzer-based solution equilibria modeling is leveraged to understand the geochemical controls on alkaline earth sulfate-encapsulated radium precipitation during produced fluid handling generating one type of Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material (NORM).
Heavy Oil recovery traditionally starts with depletion drive and (natural) waterdrive with very low recoveries as a result. As EOR technique, steam injection has been matured since the 1950s using CSS (cyclic steam stimulation), steam drive or steam flooding, and SAGD (steam assisted gravity drainage). The high energy cost of heating up the oil bearing formation to steam temperature and the associated high CO2 footprint make steam based technology less attractive today and many companies in the industry have been actively trying to find alternatives or improvements. As a result there are now many more energy efficient recovery technologies that can unlock heavy oil resources compared with only a decade ago. This presentation will discuss breakthrough alternatives to steam based recovery as well as incremental improvement options to steam injection techniques. The key message is the importance to consider these techniques because steam injection is costly and has a high CO2 footprint
Johan van Dorp holds an MSc in Experimental Physics from Utrecht University and joined Shell in 1981. He has served on several international assignments, mainly in petroleum and reservoir engineering roles. He recently led the extra heavy-oil research team at the Shell Technology Centre in Calgary, focusing on improved in-situ heavy-oil recovery technologies. Van Dorp also was Shell Group Principal Technical Expert in Thermal EOR and has been involved with most thermal projects in Shell throughout the world, including in California, Oman, the Netherlands, and Canada. He retired from Shell after more than 35 years in Oct 2016. Van Dorp (co-)authored 13 SPE papers on diverse subjects.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

PROS & CONS OF PH MOD VS. SILICA INHIBITOR
2. Mineral Scales in Geothermal Power Plants
2
Most common: Silica, calcium carbonate, and calcium sulfate.
Less common: Iron, iron silicate, Ba/Sr sulfate and calcium fluoride.
In some specific geographies: Sulfides of antimony, arsenic, iron, lead and Zn.
Mixed deposits that contain many of the above scales are often the case.
Iron silicate and iron sulfide are common in Salton Sea and Philippines.
Silica / silicate and Stibnite are found in many parts of the world.
3. Common Deposit Control Strategies
3
Silica forms generally in Evaporators, Binary System, and Injection Wells
pH mod – Acid feed to brine to pH<5 corrosion and other scales such as stibnite
Keeping the temperature above silica saturation loss of enthalpy and MWT
Discharging to pond for silica removal before injection
Scale inhibitor such as GEO981 / GEO982 allows maximum enthalpy capture.
Antimony sulfide forms generally in Binary Systems and Injection Wells
Discharging high enthalpy fluid loss of enthalpy and MWT
Dispersants like GEO905, GEO906, GEO907, GEO917
Other most common scales: Calcite, Anhydrite, Barite, etc..
Scale inhibitors
Managing pH and temperature
Mostly it depends on the chemical composition of the scale and its location
7. Managing Silica and Stibnite deposits simultaneously
7
pH Mod for silica control is a standard strategy
Slows down silica precipitation kinetics
Increases corrosion
Acid cost
Safety concerns for handling acids
Could enhance the precipitation of other scales such as Stibnite due to reduced pH
Use of silica Inhibitor
Stabilize silica species
Does not increase corrosion
No safety issues
Mitigate Stibnite precipitation as the pH is not reduced
9. Plant Description

Case Study
Located in a western state of USA.
38 MW geothermal plant, two different generating units.
26.1 MW Unit 1 uses “flash” technology and was commissioned in 1984.
In 2007, the plant’s capacity expanded by 12 MW with the addition of the Unit 2
“bottoming” (Binary unit) cycle.
The “bottoming” cycle employs binary heat-recovery process to extract more
energy from the hot geothermal brine left over from the steam separation cycle.

Scale is Stibnite mixed with amorphous
silica. It is a hard scale and found
throughout upper preheater and piping
after preheater with average thickness
of 0.085”. Hard to remove with hydro
blasting.
Deposit Analysis during inhibitor GEO982
Upper level II preheater
Silica (SiO2) 78%
Aluminum (Al2O3) 7%
Potassium (K2O) 3%
Scale is mostly amorphous silica and
with some silt. It is a soft scale and
found in cooler area of upper preheater
and piping after preheater with an
average thickness of 0.050”. Easy to
remove with hydro blasting.

19. Conclusions
19
Better pH control through the acid program can alleviate silica scaling but stibnite scaling
potential increases as pH decreases.
Nalco offers stibnite scale inhibitors for pH mod program.
Replacing the pH mod program with a silica inhibitor (GEO982) will also reduce both silica and
stibnite scaling, with no pH Mod required.
Case study plant benefits by switching from pH mod to GEO982
Differential Pressure decreased by 5PSI
Brine Flow increased by 100 kph
Heat Transfer Coefficient improved by minimum 10% across all unit heat exchangers
Total Power output results improved by 0.5-1.0 MW
Net savings of $168,000 to $336,000 annually ($40/ MWH)
Additional savings are possible from optimizing the flow
Silica inhibitor can also help optimizing injection temperatures at positive ROI.
