Investigation of the effect of diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid chelating agent as an enhanced oil recovery fluid on wettability alteration of sandstone rocks

This study used the diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid(DTPA)-seawater(SW)system to modify the sandstone rock wettability and enhance oil recovery.The investigation involved conducting wettability measurement,Zeta potential measurement,and spontaneous imbibition experiment.The introduction of 5%DTPA-sW solution resulted in a significant decrease in the rock-oil contact angle from 143°to 23,along with a reduction in the Zeta potential from-2.29 mV to-13.06 mV,thereby altering the rock surface charge and shifting its wettability from an oil-wet state to a strongly water-wet state.The presence or absence of potential determining ions(Ca^(2+),Mg^(2+),SO_(4)^(2-))in the solution did not impact the effectiveness of DTPA in changing the rock wettability.However,by tripling the concentration of these ions in the solution,the performance of 5%DTPA-SW solution in changing wettability was impaired.Additionally,spontaneous imbibition tests demonstrated that the 5%DTPA-SW solution led to an increase in oil recovery up to 39.6%.Thus,the optimum mass fraction of DTPA for changing sandstone wettability was determined to be5%.

Influence of pH value and chelating reagent on performance of Li_3V_2(PO_4)3/C cathode material

The Li3V2（PO4）3/C composite cathode material was synthesized via sol-gel method using three different chelating agents （citric acid, salicylic acid and polyacrylic acid） at pH value of 3 or 7. The crystal structure, morphology, specific surface area and electrochemical performance of the prepared samples were investigated by X-ray diffraction （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, cyclic voltammetry （CV）, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy （EIS） and galvanostatic charge/discharge test. The results show that the effects of pH value on the performance of the prepared materials are greatly related to the chelating agents. With salicylic acid or polyacrylic acid as the chelating reagent, the structure, morphology and electrochemical performance of the samples are greatly influenced by the pH values. However, the structure of the materials with citric acid as the chelating agent does not change as pH value changes, and the materials own uniform particle size distribution and good electrochemical performance. It delivers an initial discharge capacity of 113.58 mA·h/g at 10C, remaining as high as 108.48 mA·h/g after 900 cycles, with a capacity retention of 95.51%.

Effect of Combined Treatments of Phytohormones and Chelating Agents on the Accumulation Capacity of Amaranth

[Objective] To explore a high efficient phytoremediation technology for soil pollution. [Method] Foliage application and root irrigation were carried out to study the influence on amaranth repair efficiency by using combined treatments of phytohor- mones （IAA, GA3 SA） and chelating agents （EDTA）. [Result] The combined treatment increased the biomass of amaranth under 133Cs, 88Sr, Cr stress The 133Cs, 88Sr, Cr enrich- ment in amaranth by root irrigation were obviously higher than that by foliage appli- cation. The phytoextraction efficiency of phytohormones and chelating agents from best to poor was as following： 100 mg/L SA＋1.5 mg/kg EDTA, 500 mg/L GA3＋1.5 mg/kg EDTA, 100 mg/L IAA＋1.5 mg/kg EDTA. [Conclusion] The most appropriate treatment was the combined treatment of 100 mg/L SA＋l.5mg/kg EDTA by soil irri- gation, which could make the total absorption doses of 133Cs, 88Sr, Cr per plant achieve the maximum.

In this paper,ordered mesoporous alumina(OMA)support with the high surface area(328 m^(2)g^(-1))and the large pore volume 0.74(cm^(3)·g^(-1))was synthesized by homogeneous precipitation method.And the influence of EDTA on the physical and chemical properties of the modified catalysts was also studied.The characteristic results showed that the addition of EDTA could adjust the metal-support interaction and improved the acidity of the corresponding catalyst.Combined with the catalytic performance results,the EDTA-modified Ni Mo E(1.0)/OMA catalyst displays the highest DBT hydrodesulfurization conversion(97.7%).

Effects of chelating agents on protein, oil, fatty acids, and minerals in soybean seed

Soybean seed is a major source of protein and oil for human diet. Since not much information is available on the effects of chelating agents on soybean seed composition constituents, the current study aimed to investigate the effects of various chelating agents on soybean [(Glycine max (L.) Merr.)] seed protein, oil, fatty acids, and mineral concentrations. Three chelating agent [citric acid (CA), disodium EDTA (DA), and Salicylic acid (SA)] were applied separately or combined with ferrous (Fe2+) ion (CA + Fe, EDTA + Fe, and SA + Fe) to three-week-old soybean plants. After application, the plants were allowed to grow until harvest maturity under greenhouse conditions. The results showed that CA, DA, SA, and Fe resulted in an increase of oleic acid from 13.0% to 33.5%. However, these treatments resulted in a decrease of linolenic acid from 17.8 to 31.0%. The treatments with CA and SA applications increased protein from 2.9% to 3.4%. The treatments DA + Fe and SA + Fe resulted in an increase in oil from 6.8% to 7.9%. Seed macro- and micro-elements were also altered. The results indicated that the CA, SA, DA, and Fe treatments can alter seed protein, oil, fatty acids, and mineral concentrations. Further studies are needed for conclusive results.

Effect of chelating agent on oxidation rate of aniline in ferrous ion activated persulfate system at neutral pH

In the interest of accelerating aniline degradation, Fe2+ and chelated Fe2+ activated persulfate oxidations were investigated in neutral pH condition. Three kinds of chelating agents were selected including citric acid, oxalic acid and ethylenediamine tetraaceatate(EDTA) to maintain available Fe2+. The results indicate that the concentration of chelating agent and ferrous ion didn't follow a linear relationship with the degradation rate of aniline. A 1/1 ratio of chelating agent/Fe2+ results in a higher degradation rate compared to the results by other ratios. The oxidation enhancement factor using oxalic acid was found to be relatively low. In contrast, citric acid is more suitable chelating agent in the ferrous iron activated persulfate system and aniline exhibits a highest degradation with a persulfate/Fe2+/citric acid/aniline molar ratio of 50/25/25/1 compared to other molar ratios.

Influence of Different Chelating Agents on Corrosion Performance of Microstructured Hydroxyapatite Coatings on AZ91D Magnesium Alloy

To improve the bioactivity and corrosion resistance of AZ91 D magnesium alloy,hydroxyapatite（HAp） coatings with novel microstructured morphologies were prepared successfully on AZ91 D substrates via a facile hydrothermal method.Different chelating agents including polyaspartic acid（PASP） and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid（EDTA） were introduced to investigate their effects on the morphology and corrosion resistance of the coated magnesium alloys.The results revealed that the coating prepared with PASP was composed of many uniform urchin-like microspheres,while the coating prepared with EDTA consisted of many flower-like particles.Moreover,the crystallinity of the coating prepared with EDTA was much higher than that of the coating prepared with PASP.Electrochemical tests revealed that the corrosion resistance of the substrate was significantly improved after being coated with each coating.Immersion test of the coated samples in simulated body fluid（SBF） demonstrated that the coatings could be biodegraded gradually and induce the formation of calcium phosphate particles.

Effect of the chelating agents on bio-sorption of hexavalent chromium using Agave sisalana fibers

The current work is focused on the study of the bio-sorption of hexavalent chromium from aqueous solution using sisal natural fiber(Agave sisalana) treated by various chelating agents(ligands) such as urea(UR),thiocarbamide(TC), ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid(EDTA), and diphenyl carbazide(DCZ). The fiber treatments were investigated using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy(FTIR) and Scanning electron microscope(SEM). The kinetics of chromium bio-sorption was studied in batch presses under the effect of some physicochemical factors such as the nature of chelating agent(F@UR, F@TC, F@DCZ, and F@EDTA),adsorbent dose(2–10 g·L^(-1)), chromium initial concentration(100–500 mg·L^(-1)), solution pH(1–6), and batch temperature(20 ℃–50 ℃). This study resulted in an optimum adsorption at a chromium initial concentration of 100 mg·L^(-1), at pH 2, and at 20 ℃. The obtained results showed clearly that the treatment with chelating agent boosts the adsorptive capacity of A. sisalana fibers Cr(VI) 10.9 mg·g^(-1) to 58.6 mg·g^(-1). The modeling study showed that the adsorption kinetics obey the pseudo-second-order model, with an R2 in the range of 0.991 and 0.999. The bio-sorption isotherms followed the Langmuir model; the maximum uptake capacity of(F@N, F@UR,F@TC, F@DCZ, and F@EDTA) was found to be respectively, 12.3 mg·g^(-1), 25.33 mg·g^(-1), 28.73 mg·g^(-1),42.54 mg·g^(-1), and 61.45 mg·g^(-1). The determined adsorption thermodynamics parameters such as enthalpy,free energy, and entropy showed that the adsorption process is exothermic, spontaneous, and has a stable configuration.

Removal of As and Heavy Metals （Cd, Cu and Pb） in Fine Soil from Soil Washing Process Using Chelating Agent

Fine soil generated from the soil washing process can be the second problem, as contaminants are concentrated in the fine soil, and also took the difficult forms to treat because soluble and exchangeable fractions are already removed by soil washing process; therefore, the fine soil is indicated to hazardous waste, and discarded in hazardous waste landfill. Thus, this research would be performed that arsenic and heavy metals formed difficult to remove in the fine soil were converted to more treatable fractions with chelating agents. Moreover, feasibility study to apply the second remediation targeted to the fine soil inquired. As a result, the chelating agent was decided 50 mM Na2EDTA, and it could develop the complex. In addition, the result of sequential extraction showed that Mn/Fe-oxide fraction, comprised about 28% of amount at first, was decreased about 16%, and organic fraction, consisted approximately 20%, was also decreased about 11%, while exchangeable fraction and carbonate fraction were increased. This result means that the difficult fractions removed could change fractions） by chelating agent. This research can provide the possibility hazardous waste because of difficulty to remediate. the more treatable fractions （exchangeable and carbonate to treat the fine soil, although the fine soil was regarded to

IMPROVEMENT OF BLEACHING OF KAOLIN USING CHELATING AGENTS

Bleaching of the kaolin ore from Shaziling Kaolin Mine in Jiangxi Province of China was studied with the aim of enhancing the quality and value of the ore to meet the requirements from the ceramics manufacturers. Factors affecting the reductive bleaching of kaolin ore with sodium dithionite as the bleaching agent were studied and optimized to increase the whiteness of the kaolin ore from 38. 5% to about 65%. However, it was found that in the conventional bleaching process, a washing step to remove the ferrous ions from the bleached kaolin suspension was indispensable, which made the process complicated and restricted the capacity of the production. In addition, the whiteness of the bleached kaolin products was unstable. To solve the above problems, a new technique with the application of chelating agents in the bleaching process was developed to remove ferrous ions and get rid of the washing step. The bleaching process of kaolin was simplified. The whiteness of the bleached kaolin products was stabilized as well as increased to about 70%. The mechanism of the bleaching process and the action of the chelating agents were discussed.

A feasibility study on cleaning Pb-contaminated soil with chelating agents

In this paper, the complexing abilities of EDTA, TTHA and Cit. with lead in the Pb(2.59 mg/g) contaminated soil were compared in the laboratory. Possibilities for lead and the threeagents to develop stable complexes increased proportionally to the growth of lead complexible formwhen the PH values ranged between 4 and 6. Under acid conditions, logB_(Pb-TTHA)) valued as 28.1 wasmuch higher than logB_(Pb-EDTA), as 18.0 depending on producing Pb_2-TTHA (logK_(Pb_2-TTHA= 11 0) andPb-HTTHA (logK(Pb-HTTTHA)=8.2)). Conclusively, the complexing ability of TTHA with Pb still ex-aseded that of EDTA by about 10% even when the amount of TTHA added was only equal to onefourth of that of EDTA. Due to the lower cost and less harzn to crops, Cit. can still be taken as abetter chelating agent in acid soil although its coordinative capability with Pb was weaker thanEDTA and TTHA.

SYNERGISTIC ACTIVATION OF CHELATING AGENT ON XANTHATE DURING THE FLOTATION OF REFRACTORY COPPER OXIDIZED ORES

For realizing the effective flotation of refractory copper ox-idized ores and developing the activation-flotation theory , the influences of nine different organic chelating agents on xanthate collection pcnver and its adsorption characteristics ivere studied in the flotation of malachite and chrysocolla representatively selected by means of XPS,IR, absorbed quanti-ty measurements and flotation tests.For easily-dissolved malachite flotation , a small amount of chelating agent can obviously enhance xanthate collecting power and make malachite floated easily , and so reduces the consumption of xanthate. For hard-dis-晄olved chrysocolla, chelating agent is able to increase its recovery to 90% , but the chelating agent consumption is high. Chelating agent and xanthate can produce synergistic adsorptions, which follmv Freundlich's adsorption equation on malachite and Chrysocolla surfaces. The high chemical activity of chelating agent and its synergistic activation on xanthate are the key to improving xanthate collection poiver. The synergistic activation of chelat-ing agent on xanthate on melachite surfaces is clearly stronger than on chrysocolla surfaces. According to experimental results, it can be thought that the synergistic activation results from the synergistic complexation of chelating agent and xanthate with copper ions to form biligand-tribasic co-ordination complex.

Influence of Chelating Agents on Chromium Fate in Sediment

A laboratory investigation on reaction between chelating agents and chromium was conducted to evaluate the effect of chelating agents on the adsorption and desorption of chromium in sediment. The amount of adsorbed chromium(VI) in sediment decreased slightly by 5%-10% because of addition of chelating agents.Chelating agents inhibited the remodel of Cr(Ⅲ) by sediment from solutions and the inhibiting effect was in the order:citric acid > tartaric acid > EDTA, salicylic acid.No effect of chelating agents on desorption of chromium in sediment was observed.
