A phase inversion polymer coating to prevent swelling and spalling of clay fines in coal seam gas wells

We report a phase inversion polymer coating as a novel concept with potential to prevent clay swelling and fines generation in coal seam gas, or other petroleum, wellbores. Our approach uses polyethersulfone （PES） with N-methyl-2- pyrrolidone （NMP） as a water-soluble solvent to form a dense, low-porosity film across the clay-rich interburden layers, but a porous and permeable membrane on coal seams. This contrasting behaviour occurs because the coal contains much more free water than the clay-rich interburden layers. We demonstrate the efficacy of the method to prevent clay spalling in immersion tests and under a flow of fresh water in a visual swell test apparatus. The clay-rich rocks studied were mudstone and siltstone, and these were dip coated in the PES/NMP solution. The uncoated mudstone swelled and broke apart quickly in the immersion test and visual flow test, but the PES coated rock samples were stable for 30 days. The coated rock and coal samples were characterised by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The morphology of coated mudstone and coated coal samples showed that the polymer formed a dense layer across the low-permeability mudstone, but an open porous structure on the coal surface. The effect of the coating on the permeability of KCl brine through coal was measured in a core-flood apparatus. Although the permeability of the coal showed some deterioration after coating, from （0.58 ± 0.12） mD to （0.3 ±0.03） mD, these results demonstrate the potential of a smart polymer coating to prevent clay swelling while remaining permeable to gas and water on coal layers.

Effect of sodium sulfate on strength and microstructure of alkali-activated fly ash based geopolymer

The main objective of this paper focuses on the changes that occur in the strength and microstructural properties of sodium silicate activated fly ash based geopolymer due to varying the sulfate salt and water content.A series of tests including X-ray diffraction,Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy,scanning electron microscopy,physical adsorption and unconfined compressive strength were used to investigate this effect.The results indicate that the higher water content has an adverse effect on the alkali activation and microstructural properties of geopolymer,so the optimum mass ratio of sodium sulfate in alkali-activated geopolymer under different water-to-binder ratios shows a“peak shifting”phenomenon,i.e.,the higher the water-to-binder ratio,the higher the optimum mass ratio.Lower presence of sodium sulfate has no significant effect on the alkali-activated geopolymer systems;higher addition of sodium sulfate,however,could cause the symmetrical stretching vibration of Si—O and the symmetrical stretching vibration of Si—O—Si and Al—O—Si,and promote the formation of N-A-S-H gels.Furthermore,the cement effect of the gel and sodium sulfate aggregate could improve the integrity of pore structure obviously.The maximum strength of geopolymer curing at ambient temperature was 52 MPa.This study obtains the rule that the strength properties of alkali-activated geopolymers vary with the water-to-binder ratio and sodium sulfate content.The feasibility of geopolymer co-activated by sodium sulfate and sodium silicate was investigated,and reference for engineering application of alkali-activated geopolymer in salt-bearing areas was provided.

Research on co-liquefaction of highly volatile coal and waste polymer

In the paper, the reaction pattern and technological requirement of the co-processing of coal with waste polymer are studied in a 50 ml reactor. The results showed that adding waste polymers during the liquefaction of coal could effectively improve coal conversion, increase oil yield, reduce the cost of hydrogen, and require less strict reaction conditions.

Preparation of insoluble β-CD polymer and its application to enantiomers and isomers separation

An insoluble β-cyclodextrin polymer cross-linked with epichlorohydrin was prepared, and its structure was identified with infrared spectrum. Colloid stationary phase was prepared by dissolving the polymer in the mixed solvent of diisopropyl ether, methylene dichloride and benzene and treated for 0.5 h by ultrasonication, and then was coated on a fused silica capillary column. The optimun reaction conditions are as follows: the mole ratio of epichlohydrin to β-cyclodextrin is 12.1:1, reacting at 65 °C for 24 h. The Chromatographic performance such as column efficiency, thermal stabilities and polarity were studied, two kinds of disubstituted benzene isomers and eight pairs of enantiomers were separated on the capillary column. The results show that the β-cyclodextrin polymer is suitable for use as a capillary gas chromatographic stationary phase, and possess excellent chromatographic properties in separating enantiomers and position isomers.

Thermal stability of degradable composite from ultrafine coal powder and polyethylene

Thermal degradation processes and kinetics of composites based on ultrafine coal powder and high density polyethylene （HDPE）, linear low density polyethylene （LLDPE） or low density polyethylene （LDPE） at different compositions were studied by means of thermogravimetric analysis （TG） and differential scanning calorimetry （DSC） in present work, to improve understandings in stabilization or degradation control of the composite. The results indicated that the coal facilitates melting of the polyethylene slightly before onset temperature, some chemical interactions were also observed in the composite. Coal participates in chain initiation, transfer and termination of the polymer, influences on thermal stability of composites lie in hydrogen acceptor effect of the coal. The thermal decomposition of the coals and the polymers can be modeled via the first order parallel reactions models in low temperatLire range. In higher temperature case, combination of aromatic macromolecular radical from coal with polymeric macromolecular radical gives rise to the greater activation energies of decomposition, thermal decomposition of the composites comply to step-by-step consecutive reactions models. Coal can be used as important degradation controlling additive to prepare functional materials.

Effects of Characteristics of Fly Ash on the Properties of Geopolymer

The properties of two types of fly ash geopolymers made from class F fly ashes produced in wet bottom and dry bottom boilers were investigated in the present study. The source material used in the geopolymer concrete was activated with sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate solution. The results revealed that the geopolymer produced with wet bottom boiler fly ash(CZ-FA)hardened quickly, and had higher early-age strength and lower shrinkage than the geopolymer produced with dry bottom boiler fly ash(SX-FA). The compressive strength of the two geopolymers made from CZ-FA and SX-FA was 45 MPa and 15 MPa respectively when cured at 60 ℃ and delayed for 14 d. However, after 90 days' delay, the compressive strength of both the samples is almost the same, up to 80 MPa. Nearly 20% volume shrinkage of the samples made from SX-FA was much higher than that made from CZ-FA, which was almost zero. XRD, SEM/EDS and FT-IR were used to analyze the main reason of the differences.

Water Permeability in Fly Ash-Based Geopolymer Concrete

This research investigated the water permeability coefficient of fly ash-based geopolymer concrete. The effect of sodium hydroxide （Na（OH）） concentrations and Si/AI ratios on water permeability and compressive strength of geopolymer concretes were studied. The geopolymer concrete were prepared from Mae Moh fly ash with sodium silicate （Na2SiO3） and sodium hydroxide （Na（OH）） solutions. In the first group, concentration of Na（OH） was varied at 8, 10, 12, and 14 molar and the Si/AI ratio was kept constant at 1.98. In the second group, a concentration of Na（OH） was kept constant at 14 molar and the Si/AI ratio was varied at 2.2, 2.4, 2.6, and 2.8. The hardened concretes were air-cured in laboratory. The compressive strength and water permeability were tested at the age of 28 and 60 days. The results showed that compressive strengths of geopolymer concrete significantly increased with the increase of a concentration of Na（OH） and Si/AI ratio. The water permeability coefficients increase with the decrease of compressive strength. In addition, the high reduction of water permeability coefficients with time was found in geopolymer concrete with lower Na（OH） concentration than that higher Na（OH） concentration.

The Effect of Bridging Liquid Surface Tension and Specific Surface Area on Strength Factor of Coal Agglomerates

The aim of this research is to determine the effect of bridging liquid surface tension and specific surface area on strength factor of coal agglomerates. The production of coal agglomerates of the range 15-27.51 mm was achieved. The crushing strength of the agglomerates was determined for good handling of fine （coal-liquid mixture） to improve fugitive dust control, decrease in transportation losses, reduce risk of coal freezing, lower risk of spontaneous combustion, etc. in iron and steel industries, railway corporations and coal corporations. Kerosene （paraffin oil） was used as a binder and the agglomerated coal oil mixture was pelletized using balling technique （disc）. Mechanical and physical tests like compressive strength test, etc. were carried out. The relationship between the bridging liquid surface tension and specific surface area on strength factor of coal agglomerates showed that there is considerable variation in these parameters in the coal powder systems.

Utilization of Concrete Waste Aggregates Using Geopolymer Cement

Reuse of concrete waste, especially in large quantity, can save not only material but also cost for its disposal. This paper presents experiment results on the use of fine and coarse aggregates from concrete waste in geopolymer mortars and concretes. Geopolymeric cement is an inorganic compounds of aluminosilicates synthesized from precursors with high content of silica and alumina activated by alkali silicate solutions. Geopolymer in this experiment was synthesized from fly ash as the precursor and sodium silicate solution as the activator. Hardening of geopolymers was performed by heating the casted paste in an oven at -60~Cfor 3 to 36 hours. Compressive strength of geopolymer pastes and mortars using either fresh or waste fine aggregates were in the range of 19-26 MPa. Hardening time of 3 hours at 60~C followed by leaving the test pieces at room temperature for 7 day before testing results in similar strength to that of mortars cured for 36 hours at 60~C followed by leaving the samples at room temperature for 3 days. It suggests that optimum strength can be achieved by combination of heating time and rest period before testing, i.e the specimens age. Applying mix design with a target strength of 40 MPa, conventional Portland cement concretes using fresh aggregates reached 70% of its target strength at day-7. Compressive strength of geopolymer concretes with waste aggregates was -25 MPa at day-3 while geopolymer concretes with fresh aggregates achieved -39 MPa at day-3. It can be concluded that geopolymer concretes can achieve the target strength in only 3 days. However, the expected reinforcing effect of coarse aggregates in concrete was ineffective if waste coarse aggregates were used as the strength of the concretes did not increase significantly from that of the mortars. On the other hand, waste fine aggregates can be reused for making geopolymer mortars having the same strength as the geopolymer mortars using fresh aggregates.

Concrete Based on Fly Ash Alumosilicate Polymers

Concretes on the basis of the alumosilicate polymer can be prepared by alkali activation （NaOH, sodium water glass） of waste brown coal fly ash. The preparation is possible： （1） by using a short-term heating of the concrete mix （to 80 ℃）; or （2） by allowing the mix to harden spontaneously at a temperature of 20 ℃. The concretes prepared by short-time heating attain high strength values after their preparation; the values are comparable to those characterizing concretes obtained on the basis of Portland cement. The strength development of concretes hardening at 20 ℃ is substantially less steep but, nevertheless, the strength attained after about 60 days is practically identical with that of the concretes exposed to a short-time heating. The shrinkage of concretes prepared by short-time heating is very small as compared with the concretes allowed to harden spontaneously; the shrinkage of latter concretes is larger than that of the concretes on the basis of Portland cement. The concretes on the basis of alumosilicate polymer exhibit much better resistance to the corrosive action of the environment as compared with those prepared on the basis of Portland cement.
